Z Nation: Season 5 | Rotten Tomatoes (2024)

Reviews 58% Audience Score 100+ Ratings

Several years since a zombie virus swept across America, there's only one person -- who goes by just Murphy -- known to have survived the infection -- the world's last hope at creating a vaccine. The last functioning viral lab needs blood from him for its antibodies, but the facility is in California and the man is in New York. A ragtag group of strangers works to transport him to the West Coast, but his dark secret remains hidden, which could threaten everyone. Hammond and his second in command, Garnett, initially lead the group of the living -- later replaced by Lt. Warren -- and computer hacker Citizen Z helps everyone navigate through the zombie-infested terrain. When the group meets a man in Colorado, he offers to take Murphy the rest of the way to California. When nuclear weapons are launched, people head into survival mode and become desperate to find a cure. Read More Read Less

Cristian s Z nation es una serie que siempre se caracterizo por no importarle mucho su historia, solo se basa en personajes badass y momentos bizarros de zombies diferentes y misericordia variada, sabia lo que era y lleve 4 temporadas conforme con ello (mas allá de algún capitulo aburrido de vez en cuando). El problema con la quinta temporada es que tal vez sea la peor de todas: una historia no solo mala y aburrida sino que también predecible, los momentos divertidos son 2 o 3 (el capitulo del zombie con partes robóticas, el viaje astral, los drones baja zombies y creo que paro de contar) y lo que tal vez sea lo peor de todo; basaron toda la temporada en George, un personaje nuevo que jamás habíamos visto y al cual por momentos llegue a odiar, excepto Roberta todos los demás son extras o parte del decorado. Sin ninguna dudas la peor forma de cerrar una serie. Rated 1.5/5 Stars • Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review Anthony T If you got this far, you have to finish it but that's probably the main reason. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/04/23 Full Review Random Fat Guy First 4 are great this one was awful. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/03/22 Full Review Audience Member Thoroughly enjoyed 1-4, lot's of laughs with the drama and I really looked forward to the next episodes. Season 5 was HORRIBLE. Bringing in the talkers was a huge mistake and completely ruined the show. Apparently the writers felt the need to go woke by changing the tone of the show by adding political dissent and pushing to be all inclusive. I watched the show for entertainment, not to be preached to. The first 4 seasons kept me wanting more and after season 5, I'm glad they ended it. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review robert p Even though every series seems to have its.... uhhh wait a minute what...... moments I personally think think its better than TWD and it should have had atleast 2 more seasons Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Frank W A reasonable finale but a bit drawn out and predictable with some poorly acted roles. It barely skates by with 2.5/5 stars. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/29/21 Full Review Read all reviews
