Sometimes physically, and sometimes, it’s an emotional save. Throughout their relationship, the romance between R and Julie is more a series of moments. The Romantic Moment: R and Julie, and a Romeo & Juliet “Balcony Moment” When it’s no longer safe for Julie to remain with him, they set off so Julie can safely return to the compound where the humans live. Nonetheless, despite the many things that should pull them apart, they remain loyal to trying to find a way to bring their two races together and to each other. Needless to say, their relationship status: complicated.

A shift that begins the moment he set eyes on Julie. She tells him she sees how hard he tries, and that’s what people do, “they try to be better.” For the first time, R finds himself feeling emotion. Julie sees R as a person and realizes he’s different. Time passes, and the pair forms a kind of connection. Though R isn’t a cracking conversationalist, one promise he makes Julie is to: Despite her dismay and fear over being in this zombie’s lair, a being she’s been taught to fear, Julie cannot help some sense of curiosity. But unlike the rest of his kind, he feels bad every time he takes a human life (purely out of necessity, of course).Ī series of events leads R to Julie.
R is a zombie who cannot remember his name let alone what it means to live.
The would-be lovers are Julie, the independent daughter of the human’s leader (whose singular goal is to protect the remaining human race).

The script based on the novel by Isaac Marion is a kind of Romeo and Juliet fable. Though all of its outward appearances paint Warm Bodies as a romantic comedy, not everyone will believe a zombie movie can pull this off.
Minor Spoilers Ahead The Story and Lead In: R and Julie Fortunately, this ends up being a good thing. Needless to say, my resolve not to watch this one cracked. But the box office release came and went, I saw all of the cute promotional material, and talked about it with a friend. Since I’m not a zombie or vampire kind of girl, I wasn’t sold on the idea this would be my cup of tea. I can still remember the first time I learned about Warm Bodies.
Warm Bodies tells the story of R and Julie and is one of these wonderfully strange stories. Not all are strange in ways that make them unlikable, but rather are “strange” in a loveable, almost charming way. No matter how you look at it, there are some love stories that are strange. THE MOMENT: R risks his safety in order to see Julie again. THE PAIR: R (Nicholas Hoult) and Julie (Teresa Palmer)
