hyped garbage
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
So this will be short as nothing about this movie was good. I have never wanted so much for the main character to die. The only person that held any interest for me was Omar, and that's only because he reminded me of a friend from many years ago. Not sure what the Paz brothers were thinking other than "Let's just give her smart glasses and cgi in the horror later."I like good horror, even bad dialogue can be overlooked if the narrative can be carried with the surrounding situational awareness, which they had none of, by the way. I am highly disappointed and, to reflect some of the other members observations, someone obviously should have watched the walking dead instead of the OC when she was growing up.
I just needed an outlet so that I can rant!!! So, As another reviewer said above, I created an account just to review this movie, something I have never done before. Ok, the Glass seemed pretty cool at first; however, Sarah took it way past the point of cool to straight up annoying. Somehow I wished that Sarah died in a plane crash to Tel-Aviv, but I suppose then we wouldn't have the lovely Rachel now would we? I feel so betrayed, but yet so entertained simultaneously. This chic Sarah irritated me the entire time, but every time I tried to disengage myself from the movie, for some strange odd reason I was still intrigued. I was very attracted to Rachel, and Keven, and Omar. Sarah yelled Kevin's name so much that I soon lost interest in him sadly. Not only was Sarah annoying, but come to think of it, her dad was too, and Drake, Rachel's "boyfriend". If it wasn't for Sarah bratty tale, perhaps I would've given this movie 10 stars instead. I mean like seriously, wasn't her dad freaking annoying? Like both of them together suffer from anxiety. As long as I watch movies, I don't ever want to see this Sarah character in another film...EVER! But it was worth watching....see what I'm sayin..? I'm totally confused!
Sarah, the main character, is among the worst characters in horror movie history. Once the bad guys became established, we get to hear Sarah cry, scream, hyperventilate, and stutter for about 30 straight minutes. It was ear-wrenching. Just over the top and horrible, and we couldn't wait for the bad guys to get her. As bad as that was, her stupidity brought it upon herself. They had to get out of town fast...so instead if going with her best friend, the hotel guide who knew the city, and two armed guards, she decided instead to whine and whine and stay to find some guy she knew for 24 hours. If you choose some random fling over your best friend, you deserve to die. Not to mention that when she finally did something right (located the asylum keys), she couldn't get the lock open, but rather fell into horror-movie cliché of the girl who is too scared and shaking to simply turn a key. Speaking of clichés, let's not forget the part where her friend turned zombie and was killing folks and trying to eat Sarah, and instead of blowing her brains out, Sarah instead said "She only needs a doctor" Then, of course, Sarah accidentally killed the only guy who knew the way out. Sarah reminds me of Gilligan...always finding a way to ruin the rescue of everyone else. But at least we didn't have to hear Gilligan hyperventilate in every episode. Otherwise, this was a pretty cool movie with some tense suspense. I give it a 7. If the main character were a brave fighter instead of a cowardly dunce, it would have scored a lot more for me.
Soooo...this was your average zombie-like things with wings flick. The premise was found footage-style using Google Glass spectacles (really? really). The special effects were decent - gory with plenty of splatter. The story line was pretty average as was the script and the acting. Yes, the characters did do illogical things, but it was somewhat entertaining none-the-less. The zombie-flying things were kind of cool in a way. They screeched, mauled and attacked creating a grotesque chaos. I did like the ending - no spoiler here - everyone got what they deserved! (I had no idea Jerusalem was a party destination. I can't say it is on my bucket list.
