This is an interesting commentary track, Jesse Eisenberg and Woody Harrelson are very candid and funny. The director probably does most of the talking and there are some dry spells where they stop the commentary to let the movie play out, but it's a great track overall.

It's okay. Woody doesn't say much and there is the odd praising. Jesse has his moments.

In the scene where Jesse talks his shirt off:

"That'll be on Mr Skin."

"I'll be masturbating to that."

They don;t talk about other zombie films though.

Strangely unsatisfying commentary. It does all the things a good commentary should do, and with a lot of people in the room, like talk about behind the scenes moments, how they did some stunts, scenes that did not make the cut, acting choices, ad libs vs script moments, and tell some jokes. Yet, none of it added much to the film, or really explained how they come about a lot of their choices.

It did point out some poignant things I did not catch, like one character sacrificing themselves for another, and the same starting to become a father figure that only seems obvious on a second viewing, and it is more amusing than some dry director only commentaries, so I do not want to say that it is not worth watching. I just thought at the end that it should have been more.
