It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
