the best movie i saw this year

Rating: 9/10 (30 May 2007)

little can be said about this film. i've never seen the first one and didn't know what the story was about, but when i saw the previews for it, i thought "ha what a waste of film. just another fake wannabe scary sequel" im so glad my friends talked me into seeing it because it was worth every cent of my money. while the previews for this movie were rolling, i planned the whole story in my head..survivors of a "zombie" attack fight their way to safety and all of them will die accept for the main character and his soon-to-be girlfriend and they make out at the end..i was wrong. the movie was unpredictable and surprising. It definitely kept me jumping out of my seat. The rush of motion like a room of people getting eaten alive and not giving much time to examine the scene gives the movie a sense of chaos. The gruesome effects of people getting their heads chopped off by a helicopter or getting their eyes caved in by a pair of thumbs is intense. i Definitely recommend this movie for anyone who likes the "thrill" of a good cannibal virus (or "zombie movie" as people like to call them) this is far from a zombie movie. There are some things about the plot that didn't let me give this movie a 10. one was the fact that they let everyone back into Britain BEFORE the whole infected area is proved safe. In real life i would certainly hope that more precautions would be taken before continuing letting people live in the area. another is the kids getting by heavily guarded military member and trained snipers with night vision, running around undetected. i have to say though it set up an amazing plot so i cant complain about this much. the last thing is gathering everyone in the area in a small, undergaurded room with easy infected people access. were they ASKING to spread the virus? Although these small plot flaws i HIGHLY recommend this movie. I cant wait for it to come out on DVD.
