We All Fall Down

Lots of people saying that the acting is bad are just plain silly. The acting is not great, that's for sure, but I've seen bad and this ain't it. In fact, the whole idea of the movie is that kids are the only people not "zombified" and so their behavior should be erratic and over the top. If anything, the actors played it too normal.

The problem with the movie was with the story. It started from a premise that not only wasn't explored, but wasn't even relevant to the plot. Then it focused its 80 minutes on details that, again, were irrelevant. I really enjoyed Kalli Therinae's character and, with a better script, she could have shined.

Bottom line: the idea was reasonably fresh, but the plot did not take advantage of it. The actors were OK, but their roles didn't really give them the opportunity to evolve. If this were an episode of The Walking Dead, it would have been way too boring. As a movie it just doesn't work. Too bad, since I enjoyed most other movies from Arrowstorm.
