Strange thing about World War Z: I was all geared up for some brain-eating mayhem but, even though there were zombies galore, there was not one single brain-eater among them. And now that I think about it, I can’t remember a turbo-zombie movie where the zombies ate brains. Turbo-zombies are too busy running around biting people to stop for a snack, apparently.

Another strange thing about World War Z: The zombies in the book were shambling zombies. They were defeated using methods that would only work on shambling zombies. I know, I know, the movie is never the same as the book it was based on. No big deal. Still, one little change, whole different story.

We went to see World War Z with Becky and John. John liked the movie. Becky, not so much. After it was over, Becky told John, “You so owe me for this!” I see at least a half-dozen rom-coms in John’s future.
