I really love the two first movies. The third was okey as well.

But I gotta tell you, I didn´t really like part 4 at all.
A lot of the stuff that was built up in the first two, is just thrown out of the window in this one

At the end of part 2, you get the answer to what the "zombies" REALLY are. I really loved this surprise. But now, it´s like they though "**** that!".

Angela is pretty unlikable in this one as well.

I´m not a huge fan of the "found-footage" genre. But REC really nailed it, and this format is really missed in this one. It pretty much felt like yet another generic Zombie film now.

Also, the pacing is worse, and it sure takes a while before the action kicks in.
Could have worked better, if we had a better story and characters.
The best stuff was shown and spoiled in the trailer.

Part 3 was way more entertaining.
Maybe my expectations was too high, and maybe I give it another shot in the future. But I wish they had ended the series with part 2.

So don´t expect it to be as great as the first two, and you might enjoy it more than I did.

I give it a 2,5 out of 5
