<----FOR PEOPLE WHO /HAVE NOT/ SEEN THE MOVIE---->
This movie is a lot better than I had expected, despite many of the other ratings here...
If you're looking for another buckets of blood gore-a-thon that are a dime a dozen don't look to this movie. This movie bases its thrills off many moments of buildup and tension rather than just pounding your face with cheap gory action. It puts a lot of focus on the characters, the story behind the outbreak, and risks instead of most zombie movies which focus on large amounts of zombies chasing people.

There are so many things I could praise in the movie, first of which should be the zombies. The clearly crimson red eyes made them very startling, with blood and other effects not wildly overdone. The scene with the old lady acting like a human catches you off guard, especially when the flashlight shines on the red eyes I stated before. Zombies are also actually taken seriously, with just one being a serious risk rather than a dozen being nothing. Their ferociousness with running and climbing and even being able to open doors made them very scary, much more than dumb walking zombies.
The characters have good back stories and actually show emotion in dealing with their situation. The conflicts between the characters are very believable, with situations you could actually imagine yourself in rather than really cheesy, cliché, or just stupid conflicts you find in other movies. The twist with one of them having diabetes was great, not many if any zombies movies go into characters with diseases like this and coping with it in the apocalypse.
The ending was decent though I must say I doubt the military would let any survivors off free, even if they didn't find any trace of the virus in them the risk would be way too high. This was really the only unrealistic thing I saw in the movie.
