Interesting premise and got me excited from the teaser clip they released early on during promotion. Did not see in theaters but was very close to before its short theatrical run ended. Judy Greer is one of my favorite actresses and she’s hot so I liked that she was in this. I read a lot about the praise Cooper Hoffman and David Jonsson were getting as a new acting duo. David (Peter) I thought was a good actor even if his character’s depth wasn’t really explored too much. I get this is Cooper’s first big project but I thought he was just okay, nothing too special and not really captivating or transformative. Ben Wang was absolutely awful in this movie…I just don’t understand how he does not have an accent in real life but decided to try doing some kind of Southern accent in this but ends up having an Asian accent to his English. You could barely understand him at times and his accent made his character’s voice sound annoying to my ears. Never met an Asian named Hank Olson lol. To be honest I thought the unexpected star of the movie who absolutely nailed their character and was 10/10 in all the limited screentime they got was Charlie Plummer, he was amazing as Barkovitch. I never read the book but the concept for the film is promising…however the actual end product was a letdown. Many parts of the movie were very boring and I didn’t care for many of the walkers.
