I got online, gave Dish my credit card info and bam! WWZ is on my TV- in my living room.
(Sorry, but for someone who grew up before personal computers, this never ceases to blow me away.)
It was surprizingly good, not great but good. Well acted and plenty of suspense. Top notch computer graphics made for believable scenes that were visually pleasing. What struck me as odd was the lack of gore. I actually wondered if we got an edited version but then I looked up the rating and found it was PG-13.
The absence of gore was refreshing. Z had to rely on acting and story and not on metal implements shredding flesh and crushing bone.
Funny, the website where I found the rating had a pole and 75% of the people wished it had been R-rated. In my 20's I probably would have voted that way. Today I'd rather be subjected to true suspense without being grossed-out.
