Yeah, this pretty much sums up my opinion of Land of the Dead.
I, like many other fans of the genre, have been waiting for what seems like forever for another sequel, and finally it's here. Sadly, due to how things work in this day and age, the film was less like its predecessors and more like a typical modernized zombie flick. Sure there are some things in it that make it stand out, but in the end I have to say that I wasn't too impressed. The movie is very entertaining and the concept of the dead having already taken over and what's left of the human race is forced to live in confined areas is original. Though, it didn't really feel like a Romero movie. For one, George made the cuts (despite in the past where he refused) in order for the movie to get an R-rating. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I dislike the flick, I just dislike certain things.
Ah well.
