Review: World War Z

Seen 2/3/15

2.5/4

This was an enjoyable apocalypse movie. The best parts were Brad Pitt (I just personally like him) and the awesome violence and destruction of human bodies. The scenes with thousands of bodies forming wrangling piles, getting blown up, set fire to... The scenes with individual bodies being slaughtered... These were visually very cool. As far as Brad Pitt goes, I just loved seeing him as a heroic father and a good, strong-willed, rational man.
Other than that, there was nothing special about this movie. It did identical things to many other apocalypse movies. It had no reason to be made whatsoever, save for those epic scenes with thousands of bodies.
Was the director suggesting that this is symbolic of what will happen if we don't put a stop to climate change? Environmentalist message?
