The counter-zombie assault in the end of the book doesn't work in the movie because the book was the slow "derp" zombie variety vs. the zerg swarm zombies in this film. The "zombie camo" does allow them to use melee, though, because they won't attack sick hosts, thus humans can just wade in and own them (like that scene in the montage at the end of the film).
Maybe it is just Zombie fatigue setting in, but I finally got around to watching this movie and wasn't impressed. Independence Day with zombies, but lacking the Jeff Goldblum factor.

I'm with Sutekh. A good director/screen writer could do a great WWZ film with no effort what so ever. Mix and mash District 9/Reservoir Dogs/The Nines/any mockumentary or multiviewpoint film and bam you have a great WWZ movie that maintains the spirit and vision of the book.
Some chapters are straight interviews, some scene sequences, some sequences with intro/outro per pacing. Too easy for a director who values the book and maintaining its authors vision.
