Well finally got to watch this on on demand after months of waiting for it and can safely say i wish i didn't bother, utterly embaressing to a franchise that i believed was brilliant.

whilst the story is good, they've taken away the handheld camera style and just shoot it like a normal film, and they include dodgy background music which really doesnt fit well with the film at all and they seem to have made this more a comedy film
getting 2 blokes to dress up in a knights armour going around killing the zombies

i don't know what on earth the producers were thinking with this film, the only redeemable thing about this film is the bride, she was amazing, and their was 1 or 2 good kills but apart from that the atmosphere from the first 2 , espcially what REC1 had is gone completely, and aparently REC4, the conclusion of the first 2 films is going to be shot like a movie aswell so i dont hold out any hope for the REC franchise anymore, truely an afwul film!! :mad:

    Rec2 fell apart once they left the claustrophobia of the apartment block and it never recovered.

    The first movie is a masterpiece by anyone’s estimation and it’s a tragedy they couldn’t continue in that vein or just leave it alone altogether. Franchising it like Saw is just disrespectful.

    I've got it on blu ray to watch tonight from Blockbusters, loved the first one but not expecting this to be anywhere near as good.

    OMG i have just watched it and it is so crap!

    So disappointed i had to skip some parts as it was just awful and so cheesy.

    I laughed more then anything. the writer needs sacking for the terrible dialogue. What did it for me was having the 2 guys dress in armour like WTH ? ?
