Although it seems to have been stated countless times, comparing this to The Walking Dead is unfair to both shows. But this one seems a bit strange. It has its best moments when parodying what could be called 'the zombie genre' or even pop culture. Where it falls off is when it tries to be serious. Honestly, that is best left to The Walking Dead seeing as how it seems to have managed to bring in even non-horror fans with its character drama.'Z Nation' is fun to watch but can be a bit frustrating seeing as how it can't seem to decide whether it wants to be drama or horror-comedy. Negative reviews of this simply must have come from superficial viewers or people who just use The Walking Dead as a standard to measure everything zombie-related by.

I only watched this movie because I noticed the director had worked on something I really enjoyed before. But this film was pretty much a disappointment. Everything in the movie seems to just be "said", not actually acted. You feel no depth in the characters, their relationships just have to be "accepted" by the viewer. It all seemed very mechanized but I was at least hoping for some sort of greater point to it all (which of course never came) There's no explanation whatsoever as to why the characters behave the way they do, no motivation for their actions. It seems more like they are robots with predefined roles, instead of actual representations of human beings. I honestly have no idea what the target audience for this was, it's not romantic, it's not horror, not much of a mystery. It's basically a lame pseudo-emotional film with hints of horror (very mild hints mind you!).
