World War Z
« on: November 01, 2013, 09:15:12 AM »
A US Navy AN-12 takes off from an Aircraft Carrier, converts mid flight to a C-130 (twice), before converting back again for landing. An A310 has an extendible ladder from the nose wheel bay to the ground giving direct access to the cockpit? But apart from these gaffs it's a decent oule romp. Try to spot where the locations really are, because Philly isn't really Philly, and Israel isn't Israel! 3.5 stars out of 5!

It's holy awful, not withstanding the odd good visual effect.

Some books are beyond the scope of a Hollywood film, WWZ was one of these.

I can`t be bothered with films like that-if the makers can`t be bothered to get important things correct,then I find it irritating.
Mrs Turnip tells me off for nit-picking,but for example slapping a red star on a T-38 and calling it a Mig is just plain lazy.

It's immaterial to most people though,  we just don't realise it because we're so obsessed with the subject matter.

I remember watching  a drama set around WW1 (might have been the remake of Upstairs Downstairs) and teasing a chum of mine for getting put out by the bird song on part of the soundtrack, it being 'wrong' for some reason. Same thing. 

Important to a "bird nerd" virtually invisible to everyone else on the planet.
