Movie/book review: world war z

So my friends aside from just watching movies id o read books, and by read books i mean the very hungry caterpillar. But seeing as World war z the upsoming zombie flick staring brad pitt is coming out i though i would give you guys and gals a review of the book the film is based upon.


Now bare with me because reviewing a book is almost completely different from a book so let me start off by breaking down the book and what it is about.The book follows an anonymous Interviewer (or max brooks in a breaking the fourth wall author is in the book type things) interviewing a variety of people from the zombie apocalypse. Over the course of the film you see how it started in china and how countries and individuals would react if this were to happen for real.

The great thing about the book and quite honestly the scariest thing about the book is not the gory zombified imagery it has ( don't worry gore fans there's plenty of lengthy descriptions about Zacks as the book calls it with no skin on their face), also a bit of a side note here guys but try getting the battle of Yonkers out of your head once you read the book) but how realistically the book depicts the events, with real countries truly acting like they would and have done in the past to other countries.


Max brooks the author writing is also really gripping making you real feel for individual characters in only a few pages with not all the stories ending in a happy way I mean come on  it is the zombie apocalypse.

5/5
