BA_Harrison 2012 UK horror/comedy Cockneys vs Zombies was a pleasant surprise—gory, funny, well paced, with a great cast—but this particular instance of East-end geezers against the living dead, which came out the same year, is far less successful.Gangsters, Guns & Zombies sees a group of bank-robbers fleeing the scene of the crime only to find themselves caught in a zombie outbreak that has swept the country. Driving to their safe-house, they witness countless attacks on the living by the dead, and decide to head to the coast. On the way, they are forced to make several stops that put their lives in peril.The main problem with Gangsters, Guns & Zombies is that, while the gangsters are on the road—which is the majority of the time—not a lot of interest happens, and when they do stop the van, little occurs to make the film stand out from the countless other low budget zombie flicks out there. It's the same old same old. The film adds comedy to try and help matters, but the humour is fairly lame, and there's not nearly enough splatter to keep things interesting.While there are definitely worse zombie films out there, films like this really do have to try harder to distinguish themselves from the competition.

emujasper What a shocking movie, i watched the whole 139 mins because i wanted something big to happen. Did it....Hell no.They could have done a really good film with the summery they gave but it just dragged on from start to finish.First of the zombies look fake.Seeing as they just robbed a bank, all they had to show was 1 bag and the Wright up adds Danny was bleeding all over the money who was shot. Nope were's that cash.Later after Danny dies they head to the woods to dump him as they don't want the police to catch them with a dead body.. HELLO ZOMBIES... good enough excuse. What's this Danny is alive "thought is was shot" oh wait some how he is a zombie. They kill him fight with some more zombies and then spends about 5 mins of the shot holding each others hands and kicking the head of a zombie. (GET ON WITH IT)Running out of petrol. They head to a petrol station, in the mean time you see crazy Steve keep looking at the big bite mark on his wrist. "well he looks fine".pumps are all empty of course. And they find a red van with 1/4 of a tank so rather then changing vans they decide to drain the petrol out for there van. "Just go with it". Danny is puking up blood in the toilet who still has yet to turn. Watch your back "zombies". They run for the van as Q try's to grab the bowl of petrol and bumps in to crazy Steve who to our surprise "still a zombie" Shows Q the bite and saves him by distracting the zombie's. You know what i cant even be asked to Wright any more and waste my time explaining all the really bad points in this movie, and yes there are so many more..

Paul Magne Haakonsen Alright, well first of all forget all about the DVD cover, because it is putting it on thickly, selling a product that is quite far from what you see on the DVD cover. That being said, then don't get me wrong, because this is not an all together bad movie. Sure there are far better zombie movies available, but there are also far worse zombie movies available.So why doesn't "Gangsters, Guns & Zombies" stand out in the zombie genre? Well, simply put, because it delivers nothing and once the movie is finished you shrug your shoulders and think 'what was the purpose of this movie?' For a zombie movie, then there wasn't much gore or rot in the movie. It was initially a clone of "28 Days Later", just in a scaled-down version. And the zombies were fast, agile runners with some very red blood splattered on their faces. And given the total lack of rot and decay, I can only assume that this movie is taking place early on in an apocalyptic dead rising in England.The acting in the movie was adequate, but I can't really say that there was anything outstanding or memorable here. Which just added fuel to the mediocrity of the movie.As a huge fan of all things zombie, I buy just about anything I come across that involve the shambling, rotting dead, and truth be told, then my collection holds a great many numbers of movies that have been watched once and will most likely never be watched again, as they failed to impress. And I must admit that "Gangsters, Guns & Zombies" is going to fall into that group. It just didn't impress in any way. (Perhaps maybe aside from the cheap price on the Amazon market place.)The DVD cover blatantly brandished "zombie lovers are in for a bloody treat!" - yeah, alright. I wonder what movie that reviewer was watching, because it couldn't rightfully be "Gangsters, Guns & Zombies". For hardcore fans of the zombie genre, "Gangsters, Guns & Zombies" is worth watching once, and that is about it for this movie - sadly.

trashgang I was looking forward to see this UK zombedy. Comedy coming out of the UK is mostly always big fun. Lesbian Vampire Killers (2009), Doghouse (2009) were fun but sadly this one here I can't add to that list. It all looked so well from the start but the further you move into this flick the worser it get.The funny parts just doesn't work and adding a bit of romance made it all boring too. The first minutes did work when a bunch of gangsters are confronted with zombies but after a while we do see the same again and again. The acting was mediocre. Things what should be funny (the part with the grandma and stepdaughter) wasn't funny at all. I must say that some shots were nicely done like the camera added on a gun while shooting a zombie looked great and even reminded me of The Evil dead (1981). What bothered me the most was the use of CGI for blood in some shots. When the end credits are running you can see that they had fun making this flick, sadly it wasn't funny for the viewer. It did had all elements to make it absurd but it never did. It's like the title says, it's about gangsters, they do use guns and sometimes there are zombies running around and attacking but the cohesion between the three wasn't there.Gore 2/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 2/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 1/5
