World War Z (2013)

What scene was this from, again?

World War Z is an almost-solid science fiction movie. It's definitely fast-paced, with lots of suspense, but there are just too many places where it asks you to suspend logic to make it a good movie. The zombies are definitely creepy (to an extent that I cringe to think of them), but again, there is just so much that I shake my head at that I can't give this more than a 5 out of 10.

Here's my synopsis (and running commentary on plot holes). Since we're currently living through a world-wide pandemic that spreads through respiration and makes people incredibly contagious even when they aren't having symptoms, it's a bit surreal to compare the movie with my experience in the US during COVID-19. (Be prepared for some extra snark related to how people in the move handle their very contagious virus versus the US's response to the coronavirus.)
