The storyline is weak and cheesy, although we expect cheesy in DCOMs. Zed is the only monster who is exceptional enough to get into college and pave the way for all other monsters? What about Eliza? She's off working for some tech company and obviously very smart. (But I get that was probably to hide the fact that the actress was pregnant in real life lol) Addison's mom has let her walk around for her whole life feeling like an outcast and ashamed of her hair, and she knew she was part alien the entire time. Let's also not forget that her mom, knowing she's part alien herself, wasn't super accepting of zombies in the beginning. But whatever. We expected the alien "twist" because it's been foreshadowed for a while. It just could've been a stronger story in supporting that plot point.

The songs were the best part, by far. The Alien Invasion song, Exceptional Zed, and Ain't No Doubt About It were my standout favorites. Also liked the wolves' song, Come On Out. I liked the choreography for most of those numbers too, especially given to Milo Manheim since his time on DWTS.

The "woke" stuff is pretty under the radar, and that's coming from a pretty conservative person. I don't think my kids would key into any of it, but they're all pretty young still. If you're worried about it, watch the movie before you show your kids and decide for yourself. And then just show them the song clips online, if they really want to see any part of it.

(SPOILERS)

The first Zombies was fairly good! I keep in mind of course that it is a children's movie and it teaching about diversity and acceptance with monsters and humans is very creative.

HOWEVER with the latest installation on this series, my respect for it had insanely dropped.

My largest beef is the script.

Addison constantly mentioned after she discovered she was an alien, that she finally was not alone anymore; that she knew who she was.

She has a loving family, friends at school (she is literally popular), and a boyfriend. She is not alone as everyone has done so much for her and enjoys her company. It gave her character a very self-centered light that just doesn't fit.

It teaches kids to not be appreciative of the love you are given.

As for the "finally knowing who i am" bs.

That statement completely contradicts the entire overarching message of the zombies franchise. You are not defined by your species or race, you are defined by how you act.

To put it in simpler terms; What you are does not define who you are.

That statement obviously did not bode well with me.

Imagine the kids seeing this and mimicking that behavior.

Also the acting was not great; especially the mothership. I mean every quote he had terrified the potatoes out of my throat. It was also very annoying love the actor, though

so overall, it may seem that zombies had taken the scriptwriters brains.

Zombies 3 was quite the "exceptional" movie if i do say so myself. This movie has gorgeous graphics with the aliens, mother board, tech, etc! So why am i giving it an 7/10? Well let me tell you why.

Summary of the movie (SPOILERS AHEAD) Zombies 3's main focus was for 1) Zed to get into Mountain College with Addison so they could have a well future together. And 2) The aliens could find the most important artifact (that contained the coordinates of Utopia) in Seabrook in order to find Utopia. On this event, some unknown visitors (the aliens) beam down causing for all of Seabrook the reek havoc upon itself while the interviewer for Mountain College is just about to interview Zed.

My opinion I think there was a well balance between the Mountain College plot and the Alien's plot. Zed was a nervous wreck (Exceptional Zed) trying to pick himself up before his big interview and the Alien's trying to see if the Moonstone (Come on out) was the important artifact. Both had incredible songs (which both are in my top 3) and kudos to the whoever made the choreography for Exceptional Zed, it was quite well done.

Soundtrack The soundtrack could've done better, it's the last movie of this franchise i get it. But the last two movies had songs you could never forget and knew the lyrics too even if you didn't watch the movies. But this movie only around 3 rememberable songs and the rest is just bad in my opinion. The 3 songs in question are Alien Invasion, Come on out, Exceptional Zed. This is due to the fact that these 3 songs actually bring something to storyline, you can tell what each characters thinking/feeling even within the lyrics.

In Alien Invasion, everyone is deathly afraid of the mothership causing havoc amongst the town which causes them to become defensive towards the aliens.

In Come on out, the wolf pack is upset with the aliens for "lying" to them and are trying to find them and deal with them their own way without Addison's generosity.

In Exceptional Zed, Zed is nervous for is big interview because whether he gets in or not depends on the future for zombies and wolves. Causing him to stress out.

Graphics I actually don't have a lot to say but just wow. The Graphics are very beautiful, the way the portray the lighting, mothership, etc is just so wonderful.

Balance on each Species I feel like the wolves were the most underrated in the movies. The last movie, it was practically all about them but now they are hardly getting any representation. I understand they had one song, but what did the wolves (besides willia, wyatt and wynter) do for the plot? The zombies were also pretty underrated, Last movie they were super noticeable with being in the plot and songs, but now it's mostly just Bonzo, Eliza and Zed. Humans was a decent balance, they weren't too out of it but i feel like they could've deserved more screentime. Like Bucky for instant? They just called him president then called it quits for his character. Addison definitely had a lot of screentime and helped out with the plot but i'm pretty sure it's only because she's the main character (no offense at all!) And then Aliens, Too. Much. SCREENTIME!! Look, i understand the aliens were the major plot twist of the movie but what they were trying to accomplish was way too overlooked. Why couldn't they have just been more discreet about winning the cup instead of making it into 50+ clips of them talking about a plan? Cant they read minds? That's what confuses me the most.

Ending (SPOILERS UP AHEAD!) The ending actually made me cry, when Zed and Addison have to say goodbye to eachother because Addison was the "important artifact" and was needed to find Utopia. Oh. My. God. This scene actually make me sob so hard, well done to all the actors who played in that scene. Knowing all that the two characters have been through makes this goodbye scene even harder for me to watch. And just like that the two kiss. Poof, goodbye zed, goodbye earth. AND THE CAST SINGS A REMAKE OF SOMEDAY?? I SOBBED SO HARD.

WELLLLLL we are forgetting the fact that the alien's end up realizing that they can just live on earth on not move galaxies away. I hated this part only because why couldn't they have just realized that before getting aboard? Making the Zeddsion scene so hard for what?

Anyways, Addison and the Aliens come back to earth. Addison and Zed, relived to see eachother share a hug while Addison is glad to be back to earth and not having to leave the ones she loves.

Then come sing songy time (Nothing but love) leaving the characters all happy to be. Finally no more doubts or worries and all species come to seabrook freely thanks to Addison and Zed.

Final Review This Franchise has been with me since i was a child and seeing the third and final movie come out breaks my heart. I honestly want more of it, but people get bored of stuff eventually. I'm happy Zed and Addison finally got their happy ending, Wyatt told Eliza her feelings and Ali-a and Willia going to the dance together melts my heart (Lgtbq Representation) Overall, this was a great franchise and i'm glad i could share my thoughts with you guys on the last movie. If you haven't seen the last two movies, i definitely recommend watching them! But if not, definitely rewatching them lol but anyways this was my review on zombies 3

this is val, signing off !

Zombies 3 is the 2nd sequel to Zombies 2. Addison (Meg Donnelly) and Zed(Milo Manheim) are set to graduate from Seabrook High School. However Extra Terrestials land on Earth and befriend Addison resulting in Addison to finally find out what she really is. So is she a zombie,werewolf,vampire or an alien?.

Overall I enjoyed this film. Sure its silly and the songs are forgettable but I enjoyed it.

Rupaul voices the ship that the aliens land in.

The movie is boring and even though its a normal films length it takes forever! Its cliche boring and predictable! The plot twist where she was an alien was so dumb I rolled my eyes til the saw my brain and I predicted she was an alien since the first film! If your film series is that predictable just quit. 4/10.

Reading these reviews is honestly so disappointing. I just don't understand what you were expecting... the only thing I think would have been cool to see would be Addison maybe being a mermaid. They went with alien and I think they did a good job with this third installment based off the other two and what was left to cover in the third. Any movie that my 15 and 13 year old stay up until midnight to watch with their mom is a 10 for me! I'm also shocked about the comments on the songs because I genuinely love every minute of the dances and songs in all 3 movies! I feel it's an underrated franchise as far as cheesy Disney musicals go. I enjoy it much more than descendants- I think because the actors in zombies have amazing chemistry.

Zombies 3 is disappointingly not very good. As it got moved to Disney+, I actually looked forward to seeing a nice musical film with a good budget. Well, they've improved the directing, CGI and done a great job with Alien costumes. But the acting is still dull in some scenes and the story is dumb. It is similarly the same story from the second film with few differences. I feel like the story isn't very meaningful, like there's no point in telling it. There are even some plot holes and I feel that they could've done better with the story.

The only good thing in this film are the great songs and dance moves but oh my god, background music in intense scenes are so awful. They are like those stupid horrible dramatic music played in meaningless Indian melodramas. It's so annoying to hear such music in a Disney movie. The portrayal of Aliens as in not knowing about emotions, feelings and to operate a pencil sharpener was hilarious but still, I think they could've done better without making the film fast paced but giving time for the story to explore itself.

Overall, Zombies 3 is a fast paced, slightly enjoyable movie with nice songs.
