1. Had they seriously not tried to make me believe that the military, after finding a survivor, one who may be infected, would NOT be guarded 24/7 with a platoon of soldiers!?!
OMG! That bugged me so much. You're so right. It's only been a couple hours but I've already forgotten a large chunk of this movie, but I remember complaining about that in the theatre. There's just no way she would have just been napping there by her lonesome. Also, there's no reason the father should have been able to gain access to her. I know he made that big speech about "owning everything" or whatever, but she would have been so high security that not even the King of the Janitors would have been able to get in there.
2. Or have a scene where pretty Rose Byrne and the kids go down into the subway and Rose has the kids go first!?! All I kept thinking was 'you know, if there's anything actually down there, she's going to blow those kids heads off before she shoots them!'.
LOL! I was laughing during that scene. Especially when Tammy was like "I can't SEE anything" and looking back at Scarlet who just kept directing her. It was like "Pretty Lady, go first and have the kids hold on to you that way you can direct them ... and oh yeah, shoot at zombie instead of the backs of their heads".
It also really bugged me that the father seemed to be like a super zombie who was like able to track their movements and hunt them. Zombies are either undead brain eating machines, or ... well, then they're not zombies. You don't just get to make one smart because your script sucks.
Also, what kind of evacuation plan was that? Seriously, there are infected on the lose so you're just going to pile everyone into one room and ... do nothing? Brilliant!
Honestly, I didn't hate the film, but it really did benefit from Rose Byrne being so pretty ... and me eating popcorn ... and forgetting about half of it by the time I got home.
