A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

This is a remake of a short feature.The production is done as if it was a found footage with a first person point of view of David (David Michael Moote), although there is no camera. We get all the worse of a found footage film for no real reason other than to give us a first person view PLOT SPOILER of someone becoming a zombie. Before the credits we had a first person view of Amy (Amelia DeValle), a little girl and then in the end it all swings back. It was an interesting concept, but failed miserably due to the lack of decent characters and acting. The first person experiment was not entertaining nor interesting.Oh wait, that is not a plot spoiler because the description of the film says the same thing: "Dead Rush is the end of the world as we know it, as seen through the eyes of one man - David (David Michael Moote), as he takes us through his journey: before, during and after the zombie apocalypse." Okay, we really didn't see anything AFTER the zombie apocalypse, but if you use "before and during" it seems "after" is needed to complete the thought. Also known as "Hard Line. Dead Rush. Seize Control" or any and all of those 3 small sentences, whatever markets best.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

"Dead Rush" (2016) isn't quite as bad as other reviewers have made it out to be; it's a passably entertaining zombie feature that I'd rate a 6 out of 10. It occasionally rises above its central gimmick to create a few moments of suspense and emotion. (The gimmick here is that the entire film is shot from the point-of-view of one man in the middle of a zombie apocalypse.)That point-of-view device does wear a little thin by the end of this feature-length film … and I'm a found-footage horror movie fan who usually doesn't mind that sort of thing. This movie might have been better overall if the viewer weren't required to follow those "shaky-cam"-type visuals for quite so long; my understanding is that it was adapted from a well received short film.If there was one thing that bothered me the most, though, it wasn't the POV. There is a recurring shot in "Dead Rush" that I liked a hell of a lot, involving the main character's memory of a loved one. It's made even better when it is rather creatively used as a framing device at the film's end. A little reflection, though, made me remember that this shot seems to crib a little too much from a similar effective recurring shot in 2011's "The Grey."What the hell … if you need a zombie horror fix, you could do worse than "Dead Rush."

Actually another thing funny about this is that its trying to pass itself off as a movie when there isn't really a storyline that seems to go in any sort of direction.The sad reality is in this day and age is absolutely boring flicks like this are much more common than they use to be, boring unlikeable characters followed with a shoddy FPS camera deliberately done to cash in on a certain film thats to hit the cinemas soon alongside with the obvious cover art which is much more thrilling than the flick is in which i'd state they should just stick to creating desktop images instead of films. No redeeming features whatsoever...avoid!
