Angelina B. @angelinabud Jan 21 This is my kind of movie. I love apocalyptic and zombies. It was great See more Madam D @Madam1948 Jan 19 A great zombie flick, but also a good drama. The relationships between humans & half-zombie girl, Melanie, are terrific: both touching & scary. The end is something that most people won't expect, as {SPOILER ALERT} she decides that her kind of being will be the ones surviving. See more Jack F @MovieFan111 Nov 19 The problem with this one is that you'll forget it. The only thing I remember is that it's a "zombie" movie. See more Kyle C @kylekc Oct 28 The Girl with All the Gifts is a zombie movie that dares to ask some creepy new questions. The film excels in its portrayal of the children, who are both endearing and terrifying. Their innocent appearances juxtaposed with their lethal potential create a chilling dynamic. The design of the hungries, influenced by the fungal infection, is both grotesque and fascinating, adding a unique twist to the zombie genre. The first half of the movie is particularly strong, establishing a tense atmosphere and compelling character dynamics. However, as the plot progresses, some narrative threads become less cohesive and certain character decisions may feel contrived. It starts feeling a bit like the plot is just moving us along from one story beat to the next, rather than feeling completely natural. However, despite these minor flaws, the film maintains its emotional impact. A standout moment is the interaction between Melanie and Dr. Park near the film's conclusion. It underscores that Melanie's actions are driven by a child's understanding of right and wrong, rather than malice. This moment adds depth to her character and reinforces the film's exploration of morality in a post-apocalyptic world while saving the film from falling into an archetypal traitor story. The ending is both poignant and thought-provoking. It challenges conventional expectations, offering a conclusion that is as unsettling as it is satisfying. By focusing on the philosophical implications of the story, the film leaves viewers questioning the nature of humanity and survival. In a genre often dominated by action and gore, The Girl with All the Gifts stands out for its emotional depth and philosophical undertones. It's a zombie film that doesn't just entertain but also makes you think. See more Ry N @RyGuy Oct 9 This was like a Last of Us side story where scientists who study the offspring of zombified mothers are forced to relocate after their camp is overrun by the hungries. The alpha thing they did was a little strange but the movie as a whole was great! See more Jeff E @Jeff1966 Sep 18 Weak premise, with very little explanation of exactly what's going on. It's all kind of hazy. Not particularly good acting, with the probable exception of Paddy Considine. Glenn Close is horrible in this. Not a complete waste of time, but not a very good movie. The ending is stupid. See more Read all reviews
