Do guys like this movie?


Because I read that people were comparing it to Twilight, not just because Teresa Palmer looks like Kristen Stewart. It's kind of a romantic action comedy and as a girl I really liked the movie. So I was wondering if it's too romantic for guys or not.

Twilight sucks though IMO :P

I'm a guy and I enjoyed it. As a zombie movie fan, I found the zombie perspective interestingly portrayed. Not really a romcom fan but this film worked for me. The Romeo and Juliet interpretation was particularly interesting. I didn't know about that or anything else before I watched it, only that it was a zombie movie.

(Haven't seen Twilight films and have no desire to, so can't really speak to the comparison. My uninformed impression of those films is that they're basically teen romance type stories...)

Funny, enjoyable, and worth watching whatever your gender, especially if you'd like a fresh take on a zombie film.

I don't think being gay counts?

I am a man and I loved it. It was really really interesting and I loved seeing things from a zombie's point of view for once. I thought it was really great.

As for the Romance. I really loved it too. It wasn't cheesy and it took its time. I loved everything about this movie.

One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them.

I went to watch it with my girlfriend and I loved it!!! I loved the acting, the humor, the action and the romance was very well done. I do not compare it to Twilight, I really don't think Warm Bodies and Twilight have similarities, but that's just me.

Like I said, I loved the movie. It is funny, cool and sweet, all at the same time. I love zombies, my girlfriend loves zombies, we really wanted a romantic zombie movie that was well, more romantic than Shaun of the Dead and Zombieland, both movies have their share of romance, but do not fall under the ''romantic'' category in my book. Warm Bodies on the other hand is very sweet, not disgustingly sweet, just enough to be nice and well done.

26 year old male here, I loved it. The character development and story were amazing and it is insulting to compare this to twilight.

I loved this movie because while it had romantic moments it was not about romance. It was about love, which is a much greater force. It does indeed raise the dead. Plus it was funny.

I'm a 41 year old male, and I thought it was great. In fact, I enjoyed it more than my wife did.
