Zombieland
0bsessions:
I agree that the subplot wasn't particularly captivating, but I'd say it's pretty low on the totem of unlikely character decisions in movies. I can name a handful of people I know personally off the top of my head that probably would've done the same thing. Shit, there was a point in my life where I honestly wouldn't be surprised to have found myself doing so.
Reed:
The guy I was thinking of never had his girlfriend/eventual wife steal from him. However, he did believe her when she told him that she wasn't cheating on him, she just got in a "hickey war" with her neighbor.
FIXDIX:
I would not risk my life against death by zombies just to get my fuck on.
Well, any kind of death for that matter.
Yeah, they had a kind of semi established relationship by that point but still that is a pretty weak excuse to save someone in that situation. The whole rule #shitload-but-we'll-only-show-four of Don't Be A Hero being turned into Be A Hero at the very last instant was pretty shit as well.

The girl in this movie stole from him. Twice. With guns. And she did it by appealing to his better instincts.
I'm not saying it ruined the whole movie for me. I enjoyed myself. But I did think it was honestly a pretty damn weak subplot.

If you want a psychological foray into the zombie apocalypse that strives for realism, I recommend Max Brook's World War Z, which has probably been optioned for a movie by now. Zombieland was a comedy. So yes, people might not have acted like you would expect them to. Comedy.

Ahahahahahahahah hahahahaha. Haha.
I guess maybe it does strive for realism on second thought, it might just completely fail in its attempt.
