This was a great movie!!!

Rating: 9/10 (2 April 2004)

When I saw this version of Dawn of the Dead of course I didn't expect this to blow away and be even better then the 1979 version of Dawn of the Dead cause hey a remake can not beat a masterpiece. But the nontheless I still thought this version was a great movie and I enjoyed it greatly, the ending was a bit of a suprise and honestly sort of reminded me of another zombie me called well Zombie back in 1980 cause of the whole island and zombies on the island thing. Ving Rahems, Sarah Polley, Mihkei Phifier, Jake Webber and the rest of the cast was excellent and didn't do a poor or cliche acting job as other zombie movies do often. The violence and gore was good, but could of been more graphic and violent like the original Dawn of the Dead was, but of course the MPAA won't allow it so I understand (I guess we will have to wait for the unrated version to come on DVD lol) the fast, running zombies is a depature from the original and traditionally slow moving zombies, but we are in the 2000's now so hollywood has to conform to today's standards so the running zombies are ok. Anyway to end my comments I do not think this movie in anyway will be nominated for an academy award, but this should certainly mark the return of the living dead or if u don't get what I'm saying the return of the zombie movies. Now I'm just wondering if the Italians are going to remake Zombie since they made the original Zombie right after the original Dawn of the Dead was made. Anyway from the looks of it this movie will be a huge hit as I'm writing now 4/2/2004 it grossed already $44,000,000 and still counting. Shout out to the cast, director, and crew who made this version of Dawn of the Dead u guy's did an awesome job.
