# Movie Review: Warm Bodies
Sunday, February 10, 2013 / permalink


After R (a highly unusual zombie) saves Julie from an attack, the two form a relationship that sets in motion a sequence of events that might transform the entire lifeless world.



I saw this movie last night in theaters. I have to say this is a great movie. At its core this movie is a love story. A love story between R and Julie. R is a zombie who is walking around going through the motions. He then sees Julie, a cute blonde whose father is the head of the state or something. R eats Julie’s boyfriend and then takes Julie. He falls in love with her. He slowly starts getting back his humanity, then all the other zombies start to get theirs back as well. The real problem is the zombies who have become ‘bonies’ . They don’t like what R has started and are hunting him. This isn't the real premise of the movie. It really really is a love story. It’s not about R being chased by bonies, or him even being a zombie. It’s about his love he doesn’t understand. The performance that Nicholas Hoult gives is so simplistic, but so inspired. He conveys so much through his expressions or lack thereof. I was so glad that the movie didn’t have a lot of Dave Franco. Me and my husband once joked about him going to the James Franco school of acting before we knew that he was James Franco’s brother. The girl who plays Julie, Teresa Palmer, gave a really great performance as well. I really enjoyed how cute this movie was. It’s simple, but effective. If you get a chance to watch it, do it. It’s great. Not to mention Nicholas Hoult is freaking hot. Sorry, I had to get fan-girlish there for a hot second. Not to mention he used to date my girl crush Jennifer Lawrence.
