Movies I've Seen - World War Z


From IMDB:  United Nations employee Gerry Lane traverses the world in a race against time to stop the Zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments, and threatening to destroy humanity itself.

I don't usually watch zombie movies, but I've seen a lot of trailers for this movie and it intrigued me.  I wondered what a world war might look like in today's world.

My thought?  Nothing new to see here, move along now.  
It was fine.  I haven't watched a movie like this in a while.  There's no denying that because it's the existence of humanity on the line, we all have a stake in the outcome, right?  I'm no exception.  I don't like Zombies and I've seen plenty of movies with the same plot outline, but I still want "us" to win.

Brad Pitt was quite believable in the role and performed admirably...he's not just a pretty face.

These are all the Brad Pitt movies I remember watching:  Moneyball, The Mexican, Fight Club, Seven Years in Tibet, Twelve Monkeys, Legends of the Fall, Interview with the Vampire, A River Runs Through It, Thelma and Louise.
My two favorites in that group are Fight Club and Twelve Monkeys - loved him in Twelve Monkeys.
