World War Z

World War Z (2013) – I haven’t read the book, so we’re leaving that out of the conversation; the film starts well, managing to be effective on both a personal and a national level, but after the first act, it turns into an average and predictable (but decently engaging) action film with plenty of “how convenient” moments (Pitt as the indestructible protagonist kills the suspense, especially when he’s without expendable hangers-on); I’m all about that magazine armor, though. 6
