It's what people used to call a "madcap comedy." It succeeds in making most of Romero's stuff look worse than lame and it's far funnier than Shaun of the Dead. Also, the people who made this film appear to know something about pacing.

Anyone who rates this film at 6 or less is probably a very boring person.

Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse isn't bad, but it's disillusionment, the jokes don't work, and there barely any laughs here only chuckles. It's a dopey gargantuan dumb fun with charming, witty and like able characters also grand CGI,Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse isn't bad, but it's disillusionment, the jokes don't work, and there barely any laughs here only chuckles. It's a dopey gargantuan dumb fun with charming, witty and like able characters also grand CGI, Landon's film is mirthful and has a heart not to mention funny juvenile humor, but his directing isn't well handled also not good when comes to comedy, but at least he lets his actors shine. Ben (Tye Sheridan from Tree of Life) is a local scout troop along with sex-obsessed Carter and nerdy Augie (Joey Morgan). Ben doesn't like the uniform because it doesn't attract the ladies, a random zombie apocalypse hits their small town. They team up with the tough kick-ass cocktail waitress Denise (Sarah Dumont) who works at the strip club called Lawrence of Alabia. I forgive the screenwriters including Christopher Landon (who co-wrote the script and direct Paranormal Activity: Marked Ones also co-wrote the three Paranormal Activity installments) for adding teen-romance and drama. Ty Sheridan, Logan Miller and Joey Morgan have some A1 chemistry and they can act, but this isn't there best film, but the film shows what their talents. Grade B Expand

Apologies if this happens to offend certain highbrow critical sensibilities, but I haven't run across a movie that's (intentionally) made me laugh so hard in years. My husband and I rented this one thinking "Meh, the reviews weren't so greatApologies if this happens to offend certain highbrow critical sensibilities, but I haven't run across a movie that's (intentionally) made me laugh so hard in years. My husband and I rented this one thinking "Meh, the reviews weren't so great but let's give it a shot." So I guess I don't understand -- were we all watching the same flick?? I feel like reviewers calling it "sophomoric" and "ribald" and "frenzied" are utterly missing the point: that's exactly what it's going for, because it's turning every single decency-duty-and-honor scout cliche right on its head. I've been a horror fan for years, and thought I'd seen everything the (WAY) overplayed "zombie apocalypse" genre had to offer. This movie is absolutely fearless in its attempts to cook up the most screwball, gross-out, left-of-center scenarios imaginable -- and it has an absolute, unabashed ball serving them up. I dunno, I thought practically everything about this film was a riot ... and buried under all that mayhem is a sweet heart to boot. As a general reference point, I loved "Shaun of the Dead" and "Zombieland." This one delivered just as many action-packed scares and gross-outs, but made me laugh more. Expand

It's supposed to be random, stupid, and funny. I mean, I laughed at this harder than I have laughed at any movie ever. I love the acting, the comedy. the action, the direction. This movie is well done. Don't take it seriously people. To me,It's supposed to be random, stupid, and funny. I mean, I laughed at this harder than I have laughed at any movie ever.

Scouts guide to the night of the living dead.

At first I believed it was a children's horror movie, I have not even known it was rated R. In the opening scene itself convinced me that it's going to be aggressive as the progression commence. Yeah, it lived up to my last minute expectation. A fine time pass movie for the regular audience, definitely it won't suits for the critics' viewing.

When the three friends find virus outbreak in their town that turns everyone into zombies, they plan to make into a safe place along saving a few others in their attempt. Surely this is what every zombie movie you have seen dealt with. The same old adventure in zombie theme, but the characters and the scenarios were different with lots of fun. I was surprised at that part, surely a cult status will be tagged for it.

Overall movie was decent, but being a horror-comedy was its strength. Just leave the logics behind and enjoy the entertainment it offers. In the end you will be convinced for your patience. It is the movie you might like it, but can't give full marks. One of the many reasons was, it is not a mainstream actor or the filmmaker's film. But still the entire team was awesome, and delivered its purpose. It was not a box office hit, but still I expect there will be a sequel.

7/10

If you take the movie as a serious one, you will not enjoy it, it is plain stupid, but that is the goal, it is a good movie if you just want to turn off your mind for 90 minutes

Title: Scout’s Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse

Having never heard of this, I went into the film expecting little more than the typical D-level trash found on most streaming sites. You know what I mean; the hundreds of zombie movies that appear to have been filmed by bored high school kids during summer vacation. The experience was thankfully more akin to Zombieland.

Combining witty (frequently over-the-top) humor, clever sight gags, inventive zombie death and dismemberment scenes and the best use of a trampoline ever, Scout's Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse is not only similar in tone to the 2009 horror comedy hit (Zombieland) but is easily the best and most fun zombie romp since Woody Harrelson's epic quest for Twinkies. Do yourself a favor and give it a shot, but don’t spoil anything with the trailer. I haven't seen the trailer, but I hear it gives away least two memorable scenes.

Final Verdict: Highly recommended!

Quero falar sobre o filme Como Sobreviver a um Ataque Zumbi.
A critica especializada detonou esse filme. Isso só mostra como a critica especializada são feitas de velhos com senso de humor falecido.
Isso explica esses remake de clássicos
Quero falar sobre o filme Como Sobreviver a um Ataque Zumbi.
A critica especializada detonou esse filme. Isso só mostra como a critica especializada são feitas de velhos com senso de humor falecido.
Isso explica esses remake de clássicos como Mad Max, Star Wars e Jurrasic World estarem recebendo criticas super positivas... Mad Max é muito bom sim, mas Star Wars e Jurrasic World não são lá essas coisas, ficaram presos ao passado.
Só estão sendo elogiados por que foram filmes feitos na época que esses críticos eram jovens, e eles são fãs.
E eles estão presos ao passado, sem permitir novidade, e por isso filmes com um humor mais pesado não passam.
O filme tem um humor pesado e com nudes, obvio que foi proibido para melhores de 18 anos nos cinemas. O que impediu o publico do filme assistir. O filme não foi feito pra gente velha e sim pra garotos de 14 anos ou com mente de 14 (tipo eu) que gosta de rir desse tipo de humor. O filme foi uma fracasso de bilheteria.
Mas agora ele chegou a internet, onde seu publico vai poder assistir. Assim como Eurotrip e Sex Drive, eu digo, esse filme vai se tornar mais um épico da internet. o Torrent já é uns do mais baixados do dia.
Eu gostei demais, é um filme totalmente fora da casinha e dos padrões imposto por hollywood. Assista, mas só se você tiver senso de humor.
Esse filme é o que a comedia está precisando. A comedia não precisa de Oscar, precisa de filme como Eurotrip, Sex Drive, Caindo na Estrada e Como Sobreviver a um Ataque Zumbi.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. An instant classic

There have been a number of horror comedy films the last few years but none have came close to the likes of shaun of the dead. Well im glad to say that times might be changing as this film is as good if not better than the yardstick of shaun of the dead, from the hysterical opening scene scouts guide to the zombie apocalypse is a instant hit. When three scouts on the last camping trip find themselves in a life or death situation when there town is taken over by blood thirsty zombies they have to use all there knowledge they picked up in scouts to try save themselves and there town. There are some awesome kill scenes the comedy is genius from the dolly parton to Britney spears scene this film is a must see!! the plot is a bit thin but with the brilliant acting and script it makes up for it, scouts guide to the zombie apocalypse is now the new yardstick for true comedy/horror films.
