A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Osama Bin Laden has secretly been making zombies for his newest biological weapons. When troops storm into his bunker he injects himself with the zombie serum. The soldiers shoot him and transport his body in a plane. He becomes a zombie mid flight making the plane crash into the ocean thus releasing Osombie.This thing was ridiculous. All kinds of zombies are walking around in the desert when an American team gets there and just starts shooting them like its a video game. They don't even question the fact that they are zombies. So now expert zombie killers they cut across the desert looking for Bin Laden with lots of CGI blood. The woman soldier has a samurai sword on her back. Why a Seal unit would carry that is beyond me but you just knew they had to incorporate into a scene.This wasn't very politically correct or any good really. Just one long boring video game.

It was only a matter of time for the movies to start flowing in regarding the killing of Osama Bin Laden. This year showcased three different films, but only one stepped out of the world of the truth and into the world of zombies to deliver a fun take on this important moment in history, Ozombie. The trailers offered a peek into what could be a pretty fun film, but will it deliver or just be another goofy spoof? Ozombie follows a group of NATO special-forces on a special assignment that alongside a yoga instructor in search of her conspiracy theory brother who believes Bin Laden is still alive despite being buried at sea. To their shock he has returned from his watery grave and is making an army of zombie terrorists. Now they must kill Bin Laden again and stop the zombie insurgence before it infects the rest of the world. This film pretty much delivers the silly nature you would expect, but not the quality. They had a perfect opportunity to deliver a fun take on this moment in history with plenty of action and zombie gore, but instead ended up delivering more of a Syfy original movie style film that is almost laughable in a bad way. Much like most of these sorts of films, the acting is pretty bad and there never seems to be a sense of urgency for the onslaught of zombies. There is a quick explanation to attempt to tie everything together, but never really fleshes it out. For the most part this is non-stop action, which would have still worked perfectly well had they spent a little more time on the action itself. Most of it worked OK, but when it's supposed to be a Special Forces unit, they need to look like they have a bit better skills than your average soldier.For all this films flaws it's still pretty fun if you enjoy some good cheese. They used way too much CGI blood instead of practical effects, but still deliver a decent zombie body count pretty much non-stop throughout. If you're a fan of films from the Asylum or SyFy then you will most likely have a great time with this one as well. If you can step away ignoring the bad acting and lame effects, there is still a fun film here to enjoy.

Firstly, and let's get this straight for those people reading these reviews in order to see "just how bad it is" before buying it at Tesco for eight quid, 'Osombie' is very good indeed.Yeah, you read that right. It's very good. But, but, but, you say- it's cheap! It's about Bin Laden's return from the grave! It looks a right laugh! It's a zombie movie for the luvvapete! HOW CAN IT BE GOOD?, you scream. Well, it is. Very. Here we have a Kickstarter funded action horror film with high production values, a cinematographer with an artist's eye for composition, glorious zombie makeups, a cast evidently having a whale of a time and who seem to be proper actors who are good at their jobs, a script that takes the whole thing seriously without winking at the audience like an episode of The Chuckle Brothers but which is also warm and witty and satirical at times, and a thousand and one splattery zombie headshots. Admittedly, the majority of those splattery zombie headshots are cg- but in this case the old ZX Spectrums are used so well, we can forgive that- if only due to the sheer volume of blood spilled. More zombies are put down on screen here than, I think, in the entirety of Romero's six films so far. And there's not a crap zombie in the mix.Aficionados of the much-maligned zombie subgenre will find much to love here- I'd say it was one of my favourite such movies of the last few years- and certainly up there with the Ford Brothers' 'The Dead', if for completely different reasons.I urge anyone browsing in Tesco to pick this up. You will never spend a better eight pounds.

I know it must sound strange to knock a movie because it's "too good", but this not a 'Resident Evil', 'I am Legend', or 'Walking Dead', it's just a regular zombie romp. With a name like 'Osombie' though, this should have been a 'B' movie and a joke, using all of the standard zombie crap we've all come to love/hate.The acting was very good, as well as the story line. I really enjoyed watching it. It could have been much worse though, and got itself put into the zombie-hall-of-fame i.e., 'Shaun of the Dead' and 'Zombieland'. {IMHO}.... IMDb wants more lines ...
