Ranking September 2016's Movies - From Worst To Best
2. The Girl With All The Gifts
RottenTomatoes Score: 82% (7.2/10)
Box Office: Made for a modest £4 million, the British zombie film took just over £400,000 in its U.K. opening weekend. With international rollouts it'll probably manage to claw its budget back, though the real success here will come from home video profits.
Verdict: This low-key zombie thriller does just enough unique to differentiate itself from the dozens of otherwise similar movies released every year.
With welcome moral ambiguity, well-drawn characters, sharp direction and strong performances, it seems likely that this will become a cult genre classic in the years to come.
Particular props to Sennia Nanua, who plays the title character, and Glenn Close, who as a doctor with a very specific stake in curing the zombie plague, is an against-type treat.
