Negative Positive
Title: OK, but overrated....
Review: I have to admit I was rather disappointed in this film. It was occasionally funny, but never rip roaring hilarious like many said it was. Ironically, Romero's Dawn of the Dead (and Raimi's Evil Dead series) had a lot of dark humour in them already, and they're a lot funnier than Shaun is. This film tries way too hard to be funny, and you feel like you almost have to laugh. Sure, there are some chuckles, but the only time I really laughed out loud was when Shaun put on a red bandana, and looked exactly like Christopher Walken from The Deer Hunter. It had to be intentional. It was very funny, but the rest of it was sloppy and not the drop dead (excuse the pun) hilarious film that critics and fans made it out to be.
Is the review positive or negative?
