I didn't have much interest in seeing this, but when I go to the movies I see multiple once I'm in the theater because I'm a rebel like that and this just happened to be on next. I'm really torn over this movie because I appreciate it in ways, but overall just could never fully get into it. The movie has an originality that has to be admired, it's plot tools are a fresh spin on the zombie genre and I feel this would be a better book than movie. The movie follows the relationship between a zombie and a girl after the zombie saves her, resulting in the idea that there may be a cure. The movie is cute, sure, but any zombie fan or really anyone who's not a pre-teen girl will probably have problems with this movie. There's just something about the whole thing that feels wrong and too forced in the early stages, I don't know, falling for a zombie seems a little bit of a stretch for me. It's a well enough acted film, the music is good and it has enough wit to keep you entertained but I never really enjoyed watching it all that much. There's some things that felt completely unnecessary and a nod to the indie hipsters of the world incorporating that the zombie is somehow a huge vinyl collector, that threw me off. It was cool though that the film was shot in my city and it was pretty neat to see Montreal barracaded from the zombies. I'm really torn on this movie because part of me wants to hate it but I also think it was well made, it's quirky and it has good ideas, there's just something about it that seems unnecessary.

Haven't seen it, but it is a book.  It's an adaptation of a book with the same name I believe.
