Laura and Philip go at it as brother and sister, but they really do care about each other. I think. I'm not sure - it's too much of a relationship, coming-of-middle-age film for a cynic like me. You might like it, however, especially since they do their best by their dad who did nothing for them. But then he dies. Ho hum. 3 bags of who-cares popcorn. Ok, go see it. It's well acted, it's a sad little tale, but it seems to end happily. Again, I'm not sure.

Will Smith, trying to save the world, but it's way too late.  Way too late.  And for that effort he earns 3 bags of epidemic popcorn in a holiday season not-quite-blockbuster-like-he'd-like-flick.  That's a lot of words, and it's better dialogue than you'll get in this movie.  However, I say go see it, 'cause it's good, dumb fun, laced with rabid zombies.  How can that be bad?
