Army of the Dead
Stream
Following a zombie outbreak in Las Vegas, a group of mercenaries take the ultimate gamble: venturing into the quarantine zone to pull off the greatest heist ever attempted.
What critics thought
Snyder's zombie-heist hybrid lands somewhere in the middle: critics found genuine fun in its action set-pieces and dark humor, but the bloated runtime, thin characters, and genre-mashup ambition that never quite coheres kept most from fully endorsing it. Audience enthusiasm runs considerably warmer than critical opinion.
“the kind of fun, clever beats that keep Army of the Dead alive”
Brian Tallerico·RogerEbert.com
“good diner food served with extra ketchup”
Owen Gleiberman·Variety
“weirdly mesmeric lump of splatter-pop filmmaking”
Jeannette Catsoulis·The New York Times
“extremely well-executed entry in the [zombie] genre with some wickedly sharp humor and the obligatory heartfelt family reconciliation moments sprinkled among the exploding heads and dripping entrails”
Richard Roeper·Chicago Sun-Times
“too scattershot, perhaps too derivative and definitely too long. But it's definitely a movie, as well as a perfectly acceptable turn-your-brain-off entertainment.”
