I didn't know I was seeing a zombie movie

So I was scrolling the latest movies and saw this. I hit play on the trailer and it looked great. I hit stop so that the trailer wouldn't ruin it. I saw that JJ Abrams produced and it had a high rotten tomatoes rating. So I went in, expecting a great world war II movie, instead it became some zombie movie. I was disappointed. The first 30 seconds of the trailer made this look epic.

I know right?? The trailer made it look like it was a zombie movie, but it's not! More than one hour of story and you see no zombies at all

I didn't watch all the trailer, which is normally a good idea because they like to show the whole story and ruin the movie.

I enjoyed it but I wouldn't mind seeing a more straightforward WWII movie from this team. The look and feel of the film was great.

WWII is a great backdrop for many stories to be told.

Yeah, the WWII backdrop was great, gave real atmosphere and ambiance. It just got weird from there. It wasn't terrible, but it didn't completely hold my attention, either.
