It was a mess of a movie. The cast for the most part is top notch! Benicio del Toro Is excellent as is Alicia Silverstone. Justine Timberlake was a block of wood. I have seen him in other things and he is typically serviceable, but man not in this.
The movie was supposed to be a thriller centered around a murdered real estate agent and it started out really good. It set up the murder mystery and the characters. Del Toro plays a detective in a high end suburb and who has it all, a strong group of friends a wife he adores and by all accounts he is living the dream. As you can predict that quickly goes to shit.
Unfortunately as the murder investigation progresses things just got muddled, predictable and kind of silly. There was a whole story line involving the estranged husband of the murder victim that just didn’t make any sense. Also by the end of the movie it is unclear who did the murder.
We Bury The Dead
It is a zombie movie, and man that genre is just so played out except for a few offerings every now and then that surprise me. This movie is one of them.
The setup is there has been a military accident that has killed everyone in Tasmania, but some people are returning as zombies. Daisy Ridley’s Husband was on a business trip to Tasmania so she volunteers to help bury the dead in an effort to find him and get closure. The first major encounter Ridley has with a Zombie, the Zombie is scared of her and tries to hide.
