Warm Bodies review

Anton van Beek  |  Aug 7, 2013

Quirky comedy proves that not even death can prevent Nicholas Hoult from getting the girl...

Romeo and Juliet gets yet another makeover in this teen flick about a zombie that rediscovers his sense of identity when he falls in love with a living girl. As unpromising as this sounds, Warm Bodies is a smarter and wittier film than you might expect – although the filmmakers have held back from giving it the full satirical bite the concept is capable of delivering. The Blu-ray itself is absolutely first-rate, thanks to a crystal-clear AVC 1.78:1 1080p encode and a nimble DTS-HD MA 5.1 mix. Copious extras include a chat-track and seven behind-the-scenes featurettes.

Warm Bodies, EntertainmentOne, Region B BD, £20 Approx
HCC VERDICT: 3.5/5
