Nice film about a number of children in a closed complex who receive lessons every day. Apart from the girl as a kind of half-zombie, this film has little new to offer within the genre. It remains entertaining and it all looks good. Of course, the ending was also nice.

This one actually came on my radar unexpectedly because of Dirtees - Popculture T-shirts.
And also with this I have to say that missing the trailer provided a better movie experience. But it is not a real winner, especially because the child in the lead role acts rather catatonic. And when other kids come into the picture, the interaction is almost laughable. The adults, on the other hand, are doing just fine and a haggard London looks amusing.

“If I had a box of bad things I'd put you in it and close the lid.”
Expertly made apocalyptic zombie film. What does The Girl with All the Gifts especially well is the chilling atmosphere it creates, and the actors are also perfectly cast. Arterton, the young Nanua, Considine and of course Glenn Close, all have their moments to excel.
The script is sometimes unnecessarily complicated, and especially a certain plot development around the zombies and the end of the world could have been worked out better. But The Girl with All the Gifts is exciting, has good acting and remains fascinating to watch.
