October 21, 2009It's been awhile since I've watched 28 days later, so I forgot how gruesome this kind of movie is. It's a great sequel. It got me to jump many times, which gets 2 thumbs up in my book.

September 24, 2009I'm not sure why this film got such a bad reception, I thought it was really well done! The direction, the scares, the zombies and the gore all in perfect balance. I think people get to hung up on details like 'How did the zombie open the door'? Apart from George A. Romero's firs...( read more)

August 25, 2009In my opinion France make the best Thrillers, America the best Action Movies and until now I thought that Japan were kings of the Horror genre. Think again! The Brits must be the worlds best horror makers. Not since Clive Barkers Hellraiser have I been so mesmerised by a horror m...( read more)

April 5, 2009I liked this one, its really haunting, eerie and alittle scary as its filmed with pace, handheld cams and a gritty look. All this makes the whole thing feel really real and very graphic, it also adds to the haunting feeling, just like the first. The blood is gorey and in yr face ...( read more)

March 19, 2009A great film that suffers from some weak editing. It's also very narcissistic, so don't expect to just lay back and enjoy.

November 18, 2009Just such a let down, especially from the first one. The acting was bad for the most part, the only saving graces were Robert Carlyle and Rose Byrne. The violence was way too over the top for the mood set in the original, I mean there is a scene where a helicopter chops up a bunc...( read more)

November 9, 2009Zombies run way to fast, and are the "mustard stained' zombies (stains on their shirt makes them a "zombie"). Not as good as the first one (28 days later) but still a worthy "chapter" into the storyline.

November 1, 2009Being given the task to follow-up one of the great horror movies of the past couple decades was no small demand. Some of the ideas that worked well in the first film are again on display in the sequel, including eerie shots of deserted sections inside London. That said, "28 Weeks...( read more)

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
Director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo hurns out a straightforward cinematic gorefest that's competent and repulsive but not much else. full review

You might want to check out this pulse-pounder in the lull between swinging superheroes and yo-ho-ho'ing pirates. You may just discover that THIS is the little sequel that could. full review

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
There's no better fun for movie lovers than a small, unheralded film that turns out to be terrific -- unless it's a small, unheralded sequel that trumps the original. Such is the case with 28 Weeks La... full review

A.O. Scott, The New York Times
28 Weeks Later is brutal and almost exhaustingly terrifying. It is also bracingly smart, both in its ideas and in its techniques.

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
The film has the energy of a relentless action thriller, memorable characters and significant ideas. full review

June 21, 2008the movie goes along it gets kind of predictable. It's worth watching only cause of all the zombies and stuff, it's bloody and violent, and the music has a good score.

February 4, 2008The kids father was so vicious, it was awesome, the only thing I didn't really like was that when the father seen the kids, he did not attack them, I mean, I guess it shows that he still kind of had human thought a bit, but that's not what the infected are suppose to have, are they?

Nice story line. full of drama. I hope the Part III would be 28 MONTHS LATER. What can be a story line. It can be a worldwide disaster, where people from all over the world will move into the islands.
