The problems with Sabotage are deeper than plot alone -- it's the tone, the characters, its structure, the acting . . . Maggie is slow and uneventful, but I do think that something resonant and poignant was being sought. It's low key, but too low key and subdued. It's a family drama in the guise of a zombie movie, or an infection movie. But I think film makers who have an idea and stick with it all the way through are brave in doing so. Sabotage didn't even have the strength of its very slim convictions. The tacked on ending is testament to that. That part is a short film in itself and despite how heavy-handed, stupid and misjudged that part is.
NOW TARZAN MAKE WAR!
