Jorge H @jorge02 Mar 13 Funny, Dumb and Gory, Juan of the dead is not dead at all for this era, WORTH TO WATCH and VIVA CUBA See more Dayne R @RT17744214 10/03/2023 Not only was this realistic on how we'd all be in a zombie apocalypse but, the comedy was fit in just at the right moments! I love that this has a setting outisde of the US since we've seen so many US films about zombies and the performances were just perfect. I'm glad that there's no sequel or any spin off. It just makes it a bit more special that it's on its own. This really had me laughing like crazy which Shaun of The Dead and Zombieland were the only zombie parody films to do so. I recommend it to any zombie fan who's looking for a good laugh and a bit more realism to how characters are put into a situation of the zombie apocalypse. This for me was a 10/10.

It's pretty fast-paced and features some nice cinematography, with large crowds of people, or beings, to keep the viewer watching at times. Some of the dialogue is amusing too. It's a pretty mad cap, entertaining watch which I'd recommend, yes. Oh and I enjoyed the choreographed scenes, of which there are a few.

See more 05/30/2021 Cinematic value is limited... but the powerful satire, delivered in exceptionally direct, harsh and funny way, with plenty of surprises, and with the handicap of being actually produced and shot in Cuba, while at the same time heavily criticizing Castro's heritage, makes it exceptional. And what an ending! A complete must-see See more prawnda s @RT72497680 04/14/2021 this movie had some funny moments, good characters, was good in concept, but was very disorganized, very much focused on constantly having a slapstick moment at the expense of continuity or the suspense of my disbelief. it felt like the movie couldn't figure out what the climax or the message was. there were three or four too many wacky cameo "lets gear up and go on a spree" moments that should have probably been compiled into one scene, and by the end it became clear that the movie was a whole lot of sloppy storyboarding stuck together without much care for the quality or flow of the narrative. also, there was some pretty questionable stuff regarding the characters killing innocent uninfected humans and laughing about it, which wasn't really funny so much as it made me question the writer's personal fantasies. usually we wouldn't see the protagonists doing things like that. the summary and many reviews will tell you that this is some kind of sociopolitical commentary, but it starts and ends at the allegory of "all the people in cuba are mindless zombies". it's not *bad*. i just think that it needs a complete overhaul by new editors tbqh because there is a lot of good content here that is just ruined by the end product being such a mess.
