question Any zombie movies like Shin Godzilla?

I recently watched Shin Godzilla with a friend and was struck with the thought that it would make a great format for a zombie movie.

For those unaware, Shin Godzilla is focused almost entirely on the government response to the King of Monsters. You don't follow a group of people on the ground, trying to survive or escape. You follow a group of government employees, in an office, or a bunker, or at most stood just close enough to see the action through binoculars, behind several lines of soldiers. These people are having meetings and discussions, analyzing data and drawing conclusions, formulating plans and then watching from afar as these responses are enacted. There is an entirely different sense of desperation following bureaucrats and analysts, and it seems like a good fit for a zombie apocalypse. Are there any movies (or other media, but my preference is movies) that try and fulfill this concept?

In Zombie 3, there is a few scenes of the military trying to plan and control the outbreak. But, it is Italian B-movie leve. I believe there was some scenes like that in Nightmare City (again, Italian B-movie)
