A terrible plague has left the planet's population divided between zombies and humans. An unusual zombie named R (Nicholas Hoult) sees his walking-dead brethren attacking a living woman named Julie (Teresa Palmer) and rescues her. Julie sees that R is different from the other zombies, and the pair embark on an unusual relationship. As their bond grows and R becomes more and more human, a chain of events unfolds that could transform the entire lifeless world.

Critics Consensus

Warm Bodies offers a sweet, well-acted spin on a genre that all too often lives down to its brain-dead protagonists.

3/4

Warm Bodies achieves a heartfelt ebullience that's inspiring, and for a movie about the undead watching this made me feel as alive as anything I've seen in ages.

3/5

Warm Bodies is an ingenious hybrid that, at its best, manages to be funny, lyrical and gruesome.

Even after we thought the genre was exhausted with 28 Days Later … and then Shaun of the Dead… and then the Zombieland twofer … and then ParaNorman … and then some … here we find fresh blood pumped into the format with this zom-rom-com.

I may already have a number one film that is a romantic comedy with zombies (Shaun of the Dead), but Warm Bodies is a lot of fun and charming in an “eat my brains” sort of way.

Director Jonathan Levine... has fun contrasting the blank surface with a self-aware narration from R, the nimble, still human mind behind the shuffling body and irresistible instincts to devour living flesh.

The romance storyline is well thought out and offers a unique way of showing the strength of love. However, I wish the horror elements had felt a bit more realistic.

I loved it. It had a a good ending. Love R. The only thing I didn’t love was the zombie skeleton thinks (I forget what they are called). 10/10

Me encantó la película.. seamos sinceros las películas de zombies rara vez son buenas y aunque esta película no es perfecta.. cumplió con entretenerme y disfruté la película de inicio a fin.. creo que los protagonistas hacen muy linda pareja y eso les da un plus..

Great zombie comedy with heart. I just wish it took a little longer for the other zombies to start talking, seems like they rushed it a bit.

All you need is love, love...love is all you need. I thought this was quirky and heartwarming and a great allegory on what is going on in the world... There's currently a pandemic of hate across the globe that's killing the minds and hearts of a vast majority of the population...the boneys represent the ones who thrive off of hate, the fully alive represent the ones who thrive off of love, while the ones in between can go either way... But love can bring someone emotionally dead back to life... I think it's a beautiful movie at it's core, although a bit cheesy and nonsensical at times.
