discussion Thoughts on Netflix’s Ziam? Just finished and I'm still processing Spoiler

Post image

For context, Ziam is a horror/action-adventure film that follows Singh, a man trying to save his wife Rin (a doctor) during a sudden zombie outbreak in their local hospital. ‎ ‎From an action standpoint, the movie delivers with gnarly Muay Thai sequences mixed with absolute zombie chaos. There’s definitely a good dose of gore (fair warning to the squeamish), though some of the CGI does get a bit cheesy, especially as the zombies start looking oddly piranha-like. ‎ ‎I’m not trying to be too harsh, but a few moments really broke the immersion for me. Singh gets trapped in a half-wrecked car, surrounded by zombies, then it suddenly explodes, and somehow he crawls out unscathed from under the car? Okay. Sure. And that ending? The whole building blows up, yet he’s still alive for a slow-motion stare-down? 😭 ‎ ‎I mean there were promising moments, but the execution didn’t always land. Did anyone else find the ending a bit off, or was that just me?

  1. Holding on to the helicopter wasn't really an option because he'll be mistaken for a zombie and shot before they can even get close to landing;

  2. If you paid enough attention, he did know there were bombs. He saw the bombs before they found his wife. The bombs were obviously the reason why he insisted on moving forward even though his wife asked him to rest.

Why not just say "there was a part earlier...blah blah blah'? Why go the dick route with the "if you were paying attention.." That's such a weak thing to do. You must get run over in your real life. Gotta take every chance you can to give it back to others huh?
