My Random Thoughts in no particular order:<\/p>\n

1. There was great costuming with the exception of the scene Milla Jovovich spends wearing what looks like two legal-sized sheets of paper. Really?
\n
2. At one point during this movie, I felt like I was being tortured. You’ll know it when you hear it.
\n
3. Sienna Guillory managed to be the blonde with bangs and a ponytail and still pull off being a badass. Kudos to her, but I think the bo staff with what looked like a mace on each end helped.
\n
4. As a knitter, I could not help but be distracted by the little girl’s stranded cardigan. The aura of the sweater below is similar to the long-sleeved cardigan she was wearing, but Aryana Engineer’s had shades of pink on an all cream background.

Knitted jumper with short raglan sleeves and Norwegian pattern by DROPS Designs<\/p><\/div>
(SPOILER ALERT)
5. Michelle Rodriguez is quite the actress in my opinion. You ask me to jump in a “frozen lake” and let a bunch of zombies pull me down and even bite me without panicking and you’re going to have a Katie shaped hole in the nearest exit door.
\n(END SPOILEER)

6. If you’re looking for a movie with running and shooting and some cool special effects, and I have to assume that you are if you’re watching this film, it is fine and won’t take a lot of your day since it is only about an hour and a half long.
\n
Ps. I’ve now seen the Looper preview for the one millionth time. I’m still going to see the movie, but there’s just no way it can live up to all this hype. Expecations managed. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
