Apocalipsis Z: El principio del fin

"Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End" brings an invigorating Spanish flair to the well-worn zombie genre, blending terror with a surprising resilience not only in its human characters but in an endearing feline companion as well. The film is a testament to the indomitable human spirit, capturing survival instincts in a grimly fascinating setting. The cast is superb, with performances that feel both grounded and compelling-no overacting, just pure, authentic grit as characters navigate this grim new world.

At nearly two hours, the film could benefit from a modest trim or, perhaps, a few extra zombie-packed scenes to heighten the tension. Nonetheless, it maintains a fine balance of suspense and emotion, keeping viewers thoroughly entertained. For aficionados of the genre, Apocalypse Z is a delightfully crafted thrill that's sure to satisfy.

I would give it a sound 7 out of 10-an enjoyable entry in the annals of apocalyptic cinema.

Apocalypse Z: El principio del fin is a decent movie, but don't expect much. The story is typical. A normal man flawed with the sadness from his past, tries to survive and reach a place which he thinks it's safe.

The acting is good enough, and the special effects are decent. If you love horror genre and zombie movies, it is for you to have some good time.

The movie adds nothing to the genre, all the plots, twists and jumpscare scenes are there, but we don't get anything new. Survival, horror, fall of society and mankind is all we have seen many times before.

As horror is a genre which is not for everyone, this movie is not able to get much attention, and if you're interested in zombie genre, and a newcomer, there are many better alternatives out there.

Apocalyptic times will have you surviving the best way you can. A virus spreads fast across the world, creating rabid creatures. A man and his cat look for safe places to hide on sea and on land, as the food is dwindling. This movie is a story of survival by any means necessary. The physical and emotional aspects of this movie grasped me, as I was watching. I cared about the main character and his fight to survive. The tension and infection is rising as the cat starts to feel grumpy. Overall i enjoyed the movie & I am hoping for a part two, sequel, or prequel. Make it happen Hollywood. I love zombie movies.

Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End is a solid addition to the zombie horror genre. While it doesn't bring anything groundbreaking, it's a well-made film with good acting, an engaging story of a man and his cat surviving in what feels like the end of the world, and endless waves of bloodthirsty undead. Notably, this movie features "fast zombies," so expect lots of frantic chases and intense action.

After watching the trailer, I had high expectations, so I was a bit disappointed by the slow start. The first 45 minutes had little action, but it turned out to be the calm before the storm. Suddenly, the pace shifted, and in just a few minutes, Apocalypse Z went from zero to one hundred. From then on, the film was packed with action.

The movie delves into relationships on several levels. The main character has flashbacks about his late wife, frequently tries to talk to his sister, and, of course, converses with his cat. He also meets new allies and enemies among the survivors. As the story progresses, these relationships reveal their importance to both the protagonist's journey and the plot itself.

While the second half has plenty of zombies, Apocalypse Z reminds us that even during an apocalypse, there's something more dangerous than the undead lurking around every corner: other survivors. Resources are scarce, and desperate times bring out the worst in some, while others take a dark pleasure in chaos.

The special effects are skillfully done and add to the film's quality. Certain zombies, like the abandoned baby, are especially haunting. Although we're seeing more child zombies in recent films, not every director takes the risk of showing humanity's youngest transformed into such horrific figures.

The ending may not surprise seasoned fans of the genre; it's predictable but leaves on a cliffhanger. It's my hope that a sequel will explore what happens next, turning Apocalypse Z into a saga like 28 Days Later and other notable zombie series.

In sum, if you enjoy classic zombie horror with compelling human relationships, Apocalypse Z is definitely worth a watch.

As a fan of zombie movies, I went into this without knowing the plot or heard anything before for this. I saw it because it was with zombies and I gave it a chance. What a pleasant surprise it was.

The movie managed to deliver the stress of being alone in such situation. At start it is slow but it needed so as to feel the character and to care for him and for his car!

The acting was above par the scenery beautiful, the zombies well done and general the feeling of the movie was excellent.

I would recommend it of course to zombie fans.

It remind me a little of 28 days later mixed with walking dead.

Nice little zombie movie!
