Once again, the critics have it wrong...you MUST go see 'World War Z'

                         
I'm beginning to wonder what the point is in having 'professional' movie critics. As one of my bosses said recently, 'If the movie critics say it's a bad movie, then go see it because it's probably good.'

I'm beginning to believe him because the intial reviews of 'World War Z' was not good. Yes, there were the stories that the movie was over their budget, the studios at the 11th hour requesting the entire ending be re-shot because the studio executives felt the original ending didn't make sense, and the hype wouldn't live up to the actual movie.

That dampened my interest in the movie, but I said, 'You know what? I love zombie movies and I'm going to go see it anyways!'

Personally, I think this zombie thing might actually happen in the real world. Maybe not to the scale of society ending scenarios like 'World War Z' or even 'The Walking Dead'. I mean, with all these movies coming out the last 20 years, I think our military and law enforcement officers would know to aim for the head when taking out flesh eating zombies.

 Granted, I can't imagine how hard it is to aim for the head on a moving target running at you, I hope to God they get some more practice at the gun range.

I think every person should watch at least five zombie movies in their lifetimes. Why? To get some pointers and hints on how to actually survive in case of a zombie apocalypse.

Here are a few suggestions of some movies you should definitely watch:

1. Zombieland
2. Dawn of the Dead (2004 version)
3. World War Z (of course)

Each of these movies offer some valuable tip on how to survive against a zombie apocalypse, but one of the best television shows to watch to get hints on how to survive is definitely 'The Walking Dead'.

So what is your favorite zombie movie? Did I miss a good one? One movie I intend to watch soon is 'Warm Bodies'. It's not your traditional zombie movie (since it's a 'love' story of sorts), but I heard some good things and how can a movie go wrong with John Malkovich
