What a travesty...

Rating: 1/10 (13 May 2007)

Whereas 28 Days had subtlety, plausibility, real character development, and was only really circumstantially a horror film and actually a drama, 28 Weeks falls right into the tired, old horror movie clichés of ridiculously unbelievable events, inconsistent behavior based on established rules set up in 28 Days (referring here to behavior of certain infected), and exploitive 'gotcha' moments characteristic of every horror movie ever made.
I really REALLY wanted to enjoy this film, but it wasn't steeped in reality the way 28 Days was, and since I don't really care for the horror movie genre, I hated this film for being one of the biggest cinematic let downs since the Star Wars prequels.
