I loved it - the film looked great, it handled the original story in a very PG-friendly way, and honestly I was smiling most of the way through.
The main reason for this was in the two lead zombie characters, R and M (they can no longer remember their names) played by Nicholas Hoult and Rob Corddry. Considering zombies are usually played as pretty soulless and almost a force of nature rather than individual characters, this film does a wonderful job of making each zombie an individual.
Most of what I like about the story I already stated in my post on the original novel, but I will add the casting, the music and the look of the film were all pretty great. Also the fact that it was filmed in Canada made me happy as well.
