Warm Bodies

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Warm Bodies offers a sweet, well-acted spin on a genre that all too often lives down to its brain-dead protagonists.

Warm Bodies achieves a heartfelt ebullience that's inspiring, and for a movie about the undead watching this made me feel as alive as anything I've seen in ages.

Rated: 3/4

Warm Bodies is an ingenious hybrid that, at its best, manages to be funny, lyrical and gruesome.

Rated: 3/5

Film Frenzy

Even after we thought the genre was exhausted with 28 Days Later … and then Shaun of the Dead… and then the Zombieland twofer … and then ParaNorman … and then some … here we find fresh blood pumped into the format with this zom-rom-com.

Rated: 3/4

Why So Blu

I may already have a number one film that is a romantic comedy with zombies (Shaun of the Dead), but Warm Bodies is a lot of fun and charming in an “eat my brains” sort of way.

Rated: 7/10

Director Jonathan Levine... has fun contrasting the blank surface with a self-aware narration from R, the nimble, still human mind behind the shuffling body and irresistible instincts to devour living flesh.

Thom G Maaawh, as paradoxical as this seems, Warm Bodies is the sweetest zombie movie out there, with lots of heart <3 Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/06/24 Full Review Neil F A really great twist on the over-saturated zombie genre. It's a great idea, executed really well. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/28/24 Full Review Jonathan L I gotta admit I judged this book by the cover HARD. Glad to say I was dead wrong, pun not intended. Though this movie did not excell in any particular arena, it was generally very well done all around. Also props to them for not going full satire, they genuinely tried to make this a serious film and I respect that. So if you like Maze Runner type movies, or just want a really good movie, look no further. 84/100 Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/24/24 Full Review Ryan S good movie, a little slow but worth the watch Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/24 Full Review bunny Remember seeing the posters for this everywhere in dvd stores as a kid, finally got around to watching it before I turned 19 and boy I should have earlier. For zombie fans there's probably a good handful of movies that you can watch over and over, but they're definitely sparse in recent years. This movie is like a nostalgia capsule in the best way possible, I watched it seven times the week after I saw it. Will always be in my top zombie movie slot now and forever. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/29/24 Full Review Al M I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS MOVIE..!! I cannot believe I hadn't seen it until NOW.JUST A GREAT LOVE STORY, and a genuine pleasure to watch. ENJOY..!! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/24 Full Review Read all reviews
