I Am a Hero (2015)
2/10
Derivative, and way too long!
19 April 2023
Standard zombie outbreak, throw in some basic inter-personal tension, and wander around aimlessly for over two hours.

It's been done a thousand times before, and a lot better too. Take the original 4 Romeo movies (night, dawn, day, land) and cherry pick bits from those, throw them in a mixer and you have this film.

The main character alternates between being an idiot, a dullard, and stumble-bum. I have never seen a film where the main character falls so bloody often. It's irritating and eventually got to be farcical.

The other big issue was this film telegraphed every upcoming scene. If you've seen the aforementioned Romero films, then you know what was coming minutes in advance, and because of *that* this move lacked any tension whatsoever.

This was hard to find in 2023, and probably with good reason. Stay away folks, unless you need a cure for insomnia.
