PERSONAL COMMENTARY:   

It hasn't been long since I have seen Nicholas Hoult in his role as a zombie in "Warm Bodies." In this movie, his character does not disappoint. I think the overall cast for this movie was solid, and each character was portrayed well. 

I have always loved the fantasy genre, and I was eager to see a modern twist on classic fairy tales. It was incredibly exciting and fun to watch, and my attention was captured by every second of the movie. There was one point where I thought the movie was going to be quite predictable, but there was an interesting twist. I loved that it kept the basic concept of the fairy tale while implementing some new ideas to the plot. 

The effects and scenes were amazing. The whole movie was filmed in such a creative way; it was literally a work of art. Everything about the visuals was so artistic and fantastical. 

In sum, I extremely enjoyed watching this movie, and I think an audience of all ages would enjoy it too. It would be a great family movie, and it is worth going to the theater to watch. My inner child wants to rate this movie close to a 5 out of 5.
