A lone plague survivor lives in a zombie-infested New York City.

3/4 (Good).

I remember absolutely hating this ending when the movie first came out. But watching it now, in a post-J.J. Abrams world, it doesn't seem bad enough to ruin the movie. It's a terrible ending, but it is an ending. (

The 4.5 rating is given with the alternate ending in mind, the theatrical version (while still servicable) is a good half-star weaker. (

This movie was well done with excellent special effects, but didn't really go anywhere. It has some action, but I would not call it an action-packed adventure thriller. It was not terrible. If you are looking for a not-so-intense post apocalyptic survival film with mutants, you might enjoy it. (
