Popcorn Culture - Review: Army Of Thieves

We may not have asked for an 'Army of the Dead-verse', but Zack Snyder decided to give it to us anyway. In this genre-switching prequel to Netflix's zombie smash hit, safe-breaker Ludwig Dieter is recruited to rob impossible-to-crack safes across Europe. Directed by and starring Matthias Schweighöfer, the film is a heist rom-com that acts as a prequel, spinoff, and expansion to Snyder's growing zombie-verse. We review Army Of Thieves and discuss if the genre mashup works, what we'd like to see in this cinematic universe, as well as Zack Snyder's new home on the world's biggest streaming service.
