A lot of fails, but something good, at least.

Rating: 5/10 (5 December 2007)

First of all, i wasn't supposed to see this movie. See, you can guess why, but i watched 28 days later when i was even younger, so what was the problem?
Anyway, i was really excited about watching 28 weeks later. I really liked the first part, but i would've liked to at least know what happened to the characters in the first movie. They were really good. But better than the ones in this second part. I just didn't feel their presence, not as in the first one.
Another thing that i felt, was that this movie was full of... stupidities. For example... Who would go back to that place, where a lethal virus was released accidentally, causing the infection and death of most of the people in th UK? And just 28 weeks later, come on. Nobody would do that. That's one of the first fails that i found.
The people in this movie, it seems to me, don't make wise decisions. With so much security, two kids were able to get out of the city. Well, i guess that was something they had to add, a reason, so they could find their mom hiding in their house. Their mom, who, apparently, survived the attack of the infected. I mean, yeah, she has the immunity, but, it didn't make sense to me that she made it out of there without something else than little scratches. We're talking about infected people that attack brutally to anyone on their way. But yeah, they needed another bad reason.
So, what's the job of the dad of the kids, that he can enter anywhere he wants in the place? I thought that a person like that would be a high ranked worker there, and would, of course, BE working there, doing at least something. "I run the place". That just didn't seem real. Another bad reason, for him to go and enter to the room were his wife is kept, his infected wife, who doesn't have any symptoms, but still, carries the virus. That was stupid too... if he's the one that runs the place, he would've known that they have his wife, and that she is infected. But, well, he gets infected. Kills her. And gets out, killing a guard, who carries at least 3 guns.
And the zones where they keep the civilians... aren't they supposed to be secured? How could the man get there? Another bad reason... And how could the man follow his kids all around the city? Infected aren't supposed to feel, right? And, it was completely unnecessary to kill all the people running out there. There are ways to recognize. For example, uninfected people are able to put their hands on their heads and run, so anyone running like that, isn't an infected, or something like that.
Well, yeah, this movie has a lot of fails. But it made me feel tension and goosebumps. I couldn't sleep the night i watched, not because of fear. Because i was thinking... what would we do in a situation like that? what if it happened to us? Certainly, i really don't know. And i wouldn't like to know, honestly.
A cliffhanger ending. Damn. Now, lets wait and see 28 months later. Can't wait.
