Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
I may be at a disadvantage never reading the source material, or even seeing the movie, but here is a crack at a review.
It has the story of Elizabeth Bennett (Lilly James) being the strong independent woman that doesn't need a man to be happy. We then get Mr. Darcy (Sam Riley), someone who seems to be just as independent as she is. When they meet, both are attracted to each other in seemingly unconventional ways.
First of all it is a great attempt to have what many consider one of the greatest romance novels of all time and throw in a zombie apocalypse with it. The one thing I really loved about the movie was the quirky performance given by Matt Smith as Mr. Collins.
These days though it is hard to do a zombie film that do not feel like they have seen a hundred times. Watching the movie it seems like the movie was cut from an R to a PG-13 to attract a larger audience. When it comes to zombie movies will undercut the movie, in the horror sense.
