What a waste of my time!!!

A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

I had never heard of this movie and had only come across it whilst searching for some zombie movies to satisfy my hunger.It was an unusual yet interesting watch to begin with; I've never seen a full animated zombie movie before.The plot was simple and to the point, even though it may not have made proper sense, it was funny.I found Fred to be a great lead character and enjoyed him throughout...well...You'll find out the rest.All in all, I enjoyed it quite a lot, may not have been the best movie ever but if you are into zombie flicks/animation this will satisfy your hunger. There is also some good animated gore too, never thought I'd say that.ZJ

I wasn't expecting too much out of CITY OF ROTT so I can't say I was disappointed. When I initially began hearing about it awhile back I was expecting a bit more, but once I uncovered more info on it, I was prepared for the stylized but somewhat juvenile-looking animation and "silly" storyline.Fred is an old guy who talks to his walker and is roaming around a zombie infested city looking for a new pair of shoes. His old ones aren't holdin' up anymore, and he's willing to risk infection to find some new kicks. The zombies in the city are caused by worms that infest human brains and take over motor-function, reanimating people in search of more food. Fred maintains through all this, cuz he's pretty kick-ass at wielding his walker as a weapon, and is also pretty efficient with any weapons that he comes across along the way. Fred ends up meeting a few other "survivors" at different intervals along the way while still avoiding infection - until the last third of the film where everything takes a slightly out-in-left-field "twist"...CITY OF ROTT is entertaining enough for the most part, but I can't say that I really loved it either. It dragged at certain parts and many kill-scenes were repetitive - the whole production had a video-game-like feel in the way that the story and action played out. There's plenty of animated splatter on hand but I found the storyline hard to get into. Definitely an interesting film as you don't see too much American made "adult" animation - and definitely nothing as gory as this - so to zombie, animation, and splatter fans - I'd definitely say that it's a one-time "must-see" - but I'd suggest a rental, not sure how much re-play value this one has...7/10

Do you like zombie movies with lots of gore? Do like weird animated movies? This little zombie flick may still not be for you. There will be a select little group of people that will "get" this movie, and to those lucky people it will be awesome. Once I got into it I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Instead of the usual frantic group of people running for their lives you have one senile old man and his walker looking for a pair of shoes. Don't get me wrong there are plenty of zombies, and plenty of bloodshed. Thats definitely what makes this film unique. If your looking for a way different take on zombie film then this flick just might be for you!

If you have not yet seen City of Rott, rent it before you decide to buy it. First let me tell you about City of Rott and its general storyline. You are introduced to Fred, an elderly man with a walker. You'll be confused right off the bat as to why hes speaking without moving his mouth all the time. You'll realize this is because he speaks to his walker. I found this very tiring to watch, as any time you do not see his face, you may get confused in mid sentence, who's actually speaking until someone is addressed. However, lets continue with..what is Fred doing? Fred's journey through out the entire 77 minutes will revolve around finding new slippers as he expresses early on, his current ones are aching his feet.Now if you're a zombie movie fan or just like gore, you'll enjoy the countless zombie dispatches. The movie is meant to be funny as well, so those looking for a serious zombie movie probably should stay away..as if the fact it was animated didn't give this away anyhow. The movie does take an interesting turn towards the end but unless I am ignorant or something, its a very stale end. After it is all over with, I give this movie a 5 out of 10. It is not a terribly bad movie. It kept me interested through most of it. There were parts where hearing Fred speak constantly grew old and slightly annoying. The voice acting all together seemed pretty uninspired. Notably, a girl character's voice was not that of a girl and seemed like it was a man's voice with the pitch raised. Zombie fans, take this with a grain of salt. Those who aren't, maybe this isn't for you.
