Summary
A zombie apocalypse decimates Las Vegas in the Nevada desert and the military contains the slavering undead within a ring of steel. Scott Ward (Dave Bautista), former leader of mercenary group Las Vengeance, is approached by billionaire Tanaka (Hiroyuki Sanada) to put together a squad capable of stealing 200 million dollars from a casino vault before a US government-sanctioned tactical nuclear strike reduces the gambling capital to rubble. Flanked by his trusty second-in-command Maria (Ana de la Reguera) and chainsaw-wielding lieutenant Vanderohe (Omari Hardwick), Scott leads the incursion into zombie territory. He is unaware that a super-strong and fiercely intelligent zombie king called Zeus (Richard Cetrone) commands the horde with his queen (Athena Perample).

Zack Snyder ups the stakes on his excellent Dawn of the Dead remake with this belated sequel, a zombie heist movie set in a besieged Las Vegas. Ahead of a nuclear strike intended to wipe out the undead, ex-mercenary Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy) is sent in to steal $200m from a casino vault. His tooled-up crew includes pilot Tig Notaro, safecracker Matthias Schweighöfer, and his estranged daughter Ella Purnell. However, after a showstopping credits sequence, in which a new strain of infected marauders tears through town to the tune of Viva Las Vegas, things go rapidly downhill. Once the characters are inside, the biggest dangers are the cruddy dialogue, cheap-looking sets and CG silliness, such as a cameo appearance from Siegfried and Roy's zombie tiger. Never one for restraint, Snyder gives his trademark maximalism full rein, delivering a bloated 147-minute movie that favours empty spectacle over humanity.
