Critics' reviews

"Emerges as a surprisingly smart, gripping and imaginative addition to the zombie-movie canon"

Scott Foundas: Variety
"A bunch of impressive set-pieces stitched together rather than a good story convincingly told (...) There are a few narrative surprises along the way and an absence of dumb, clunking dialogue that often infects such fare"

Todd McCarthy: The Hollywood Reporter
"[It] does not try to extend the boundaries of commercial entertainment but does what it can to find interesting ways to pass the time within them"

A. O. Scott: The New York Times
"'World War Z' is still as smart, shifty and scary as a starving zombie ready to chow down on you, baby, you (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"

Peter Travers: Rolling Stone
"Once you figure out the first rule of Zombie Fight Club — nothing too bad can happen to Brad Pitt — the movie is, despite intermittent thrills, rote (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"

Kyle Smith: New York Post
"A well-paced, entertaining, conventional action thriller where a reluctant hero saves the day (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"

Claudia Puig: USA Today
"If you need proof that sometimes more can be less, here you go (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"
