Warm Bodies plot
"Cold body. Warm heart."
Zombies love people, especially their brains. But R (Nicholas Hoult) is different. Unlike the others, however, he is alive inside. The zombies have all fallen victim to a recent plague that has driven the survivors into a heavily guarded city. The zombies are walking around an airport, looking for human flesh. Meanwhile, they also live in fear of the evil Boneys, a new series of vampires incarnate.

Zombie horror isn't one of my favorite subleaques within horror. Zombies are those wacky, slow-moving and absolutely not scary creatures that don't make my heart beat much faster. Well, maybe out of annoyance. I've never watched a decent zombie movie. So they do exist. This movie does not belong to that category. This one is beyond the annoyance.
A zombie who harbors romantic feelings is really quite ridiculous and unbelievable. A beautiful opponent who also suffers from it in reverse is just as ridiculous and unbelievable. The development of the relationship in the film is also a very uninteresting one, a very bland one and a very flat one.
The film is a sugary love drama. The combination zombie and romance is undoubtedly meant to be sweet, but it is very laughable. This fact is not credible for a moment. No empathy on my part.
For a zombie film, the film contains very little horror. Little exciting piece of zombie filth to be seen. There is a lot of shooting and running action. And of laughable romance, of course.
Besides zombies, another group of monsters plays a role in this film. The superlative of the zombies, called Boneys. Pretty fun, these creatures. They are fast and terrifying at first. Unfortunately, they don't look convincing from a graphical point of view.
Teresa Palmer is nice by the way. I understand that zombie. He just didn't act believably. I couldn't imagine Teresa Palmer being in the mood for that.
What a crap movie.

The whole time I was in between two opposing points of view: "what a nice and sweet starting point" versus "after the first half hour nothing much happens, neither in terms of fresh humor nor in terms of plot nor drama", and in that split I'm actually still sitting. I have remained fascinated mainly because of the two protagonists: nice that Nicholas Hoult after his child roles (including About a boy) now also has a serious adult acting career (I was recently also impressed by his role as Nux in Mad Max : Fury Road), and Teresa Palmer I only knew as ass-kicker in I am number four but is here to to eat up. Moreover, I find it difficult to be skeptical about a film that shows Dylan's Shelter from the storm on the soundtrack at a nice emotional moment, and then also Runaway by The National at the end credits... Oh well, all in all it's still a fun and sweet film that might have scored even higher if the impressive supporting cast (Rob Corddry from What happens in Vegas, Analeigh Tipton from Crazy, stupid, love., Dave Franco and John Malkovich) had something more to do.

Mme.
Not really the best horror movie out there, definitely not. I find romance and horror a rather dubious combination anyway, but yes. Hoult is definitely cut out for his role, and Palmer just looks good I'd say.
Story is not very interesting, and indeed has a Twilight leaning. So not very original, but with a good implementation this can still be overlooked. Unfortunately, that's not really the case here. The film has only a little bit of romance.
In terms of horror, it is very disappointing and there is literally nothing that rises above it. The chemistry between Palmwr and Hoult isn't exactly there either, although the romance itself isn't that bad. The ending should not have been so soft and the film goes too much inside the lines.
