Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Tom Cassidy Common Sense Media Exciting, fun, and moving, this is a top-tier zombie flick, whether the word is used or not. Dec 4, 2024 Full Review Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Rohan Naahar The Indian Express Influenced by every zombie thriller ever made, but more specifically, by the video game series The Last of Us, Prime Video’s Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End is a competently crafted thriller let down by a lack of ambition. Nov 24, 2024 Full Review Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Claire Waheed Decider Despite some of its predictability, Apocalypse Z is a fun thriller for all audiences.

Although it does not distance itself significantly from others of the same type, Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End positions itself as a top-level production, determined to start a franchise.

Jack T Well crafted, thoughtful and disturbingly realistic. The only unfortunate thing is that the subtitles bare little relation to the spoken dialogue which is a shame for those who need the subtitles as the spoken dialogue was more complex and made the characters seem far more real. I really hope they make a sequel because the film does leave you desperate to know what happens next. One interesting thing to note as a fan of zombie type films, the infected don't just grunt and moan, they sound like they're suffering, like very sick people. Normally these stories dehumanise the infected/undead so it really stood out to me. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/06/24 Full Review Aldis H Jury is out, mainly because it's too long and ends on a cliffhanger, which they give no warning of. Otherwise, an entertaining movie. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 12/02/24 Full Review Who K Its a good movie to add the genre hasn't got the pulling power of a the caliber of cast but its on the same wavelength as Quiet Place Day One . I think it could of been a lot clever in the story telling and was a bit too long if they go for another film hoping it adds a few surprises . Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/30/24 Full Review Breno G Special Effects: 1,0/Sound Effects: 0,5/Acting: 1,0/Story: 1,0 Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/30/24 Full Review Lucio Leonardo P Entertainment that does not innovate the zombie genre, but tells a very well written and produced horror fable, using good chase scenes, with some original ideas and others already stereotypical. The management, even in situations of “wow, how lucky!” with an unfinished but predictable ending, it knows how to use Spanish soil to present us with apocalypse Z, the beginning of the end. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/27/24 Full Review Márton V Overall good Zombie thriller, BUT fails to deliver by the end. I really enjoyed how the tension was building up from the beginning, but the climax, namely that the ultimate danger are people, more specificly, russians(hard not to spot this) was a surprisingly stupid take. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/26/24 Full Review Read all reviews
