Muscle without brain.

Rating: 5/10 (27 July 2008)

'28 Weeks Later' is a well-executed horror flick. The opening sequence is a pulse-rating beginning, it is just very unfortunate that it proceeded with brawn (blood, and scary people) rather than brain to its eventual conclusion.
The problem for me is the fact that an individual although infected with the virus has the genetic mutation to thus be immune - this is rather far fetched. If I were to accept that a mutation would be possible I'm afraid '28 Weeks Later' would still disappoint. It is is further compounded by many frustrating and annoying events which take place, far beyond the boundaries of the realms of practicality, that makes this a fast and furious horror flick bereft of intellect.
Some of the shots, special effects must be applauded along with strong performances from Rose Byrne and Imogen Poots. There are a couple of unexpected twists but '28 Weeks Later' for me is a bitter sweet experience, which is much more bitter for its illogical events.
