if u have seen the movie called "Versus", i would b much happy to read ur comments or own personal reviews of the film in this section, as i watched that movie yesterday and thought it was awkward but non the less a wiked movie wid sum great action scenes aswell, its one of them japanese typa movies where u wonder what the heck is going on at certain parts....but even if u dont get the full movie, ure likely to get all da main points, and it has a very unexpected/unusual ending aswell.

i gota admit some of the camera angles were absolutely wiked....and sum were terrible, and at points a bit too shaky (camera man musta been scared himself):P

if u have a weak stomach i advise u not to watch this movie seeing as the film has a lot of gore and guts flying out n stuff like dat...but if u can handle it....den do watch it !!

the concept of this movie is very much like dat of a game, as the starting of the movie feels a bit like a Role Playing Game (RPG) and towards the end....u seem to go thru a chain of bad guys (like bad bosses from games). The main guy also does alot of stances and comes out wid alot of usual words he says after killing some1 dat sounds like summat out of Devil May Cry.

I spotted 2 similarities with this and resident evil.....firstly the undead/zombies acted very much like da ones from resident evil, and secondly the main character not having remembering anething.

Overall i didnt like the starting of the movie much as it looked like a low budget movie that seemed to be going nowhere but a dead end that seemed really dull and would have a ending that u could figure out for urself......but as i carried on watching it, it seemed as if more effort was put in....and got alot lot more better......thats my opinion......i very much liked this movie (also becuz it has its funny characters and scenes)...:D

if u lot have ne comments or nethin on this movie...feel free to post

Plot Summary from IMDB.......ive put it as a spoiler as maybe sum1 may not want to read the detailed plot before watching the movie

A pair of escaped convicts meet up with a group of gangsters by a remote forest road. After an arguement over a girl the mobsters have kidnapped, shots are fired and one of the gangsters is killed. The standoff is cut short, however, when the dead man suddenly springs to life and starts trying to kill his former friends. The zombie eventually goes down in a hail bullets, but their problems aren't over. It seems the gangsters have been using this forest to dispose of of their victims, all of whom are now looking to settle some old scores. Even if they get through this mess, there is still the question of why they've arranged to meet the convicts out here, and why they've brought along the girl. How are they connected to the dead bodies coming back to life?
