cashing in on the hype from 28 days later.

Rating: 5/10 (23 June 2016)

This one is really hard to judge due to the fact that it's a melting pot. It takes the deeper meaning of the original and throw it out of the window in favor of more action packed stuff. It's like Dawn of the dead from 1978 and 28 days later had a baby. They wanted to have the best of both worlds but sadly i just think that i rather watch either the original or 28 days later.
That being said, it's not a bad movie. If i had to describe it, i would say its a mixed bag. The good moments are great and the bad moments are horrible. I think that we could have done well without the montage scene in the middle of the movie, it felt out of place for me. The dark humor is good, i especially like when they are up on the roof and play a game with their rooftop neighbor shooting famous zombies (or Look-alikes).
The movie start out good, but as it progresses i lost interest. Mainly because i did not care for our main cast except for CJ played by Michael Kelly. I can understand if people like this movie more than i did, i have friends who think that it surpasses the original because the original is a very slow movie with tons of buildup.
For me personally it comes down to the running zombies. Some people like them more, some people like them less (Me included). While i did enjoy 28 days later, fast zombies remove the feel of dread from the lurking zombies. It just seems easier to create a real threat with running zombies. If the zombies are slow like in the original, you can take it out without a problem. Here however even a single zombie can be a real threat. Once again, this is a personal taste and i can see why people like the running zombies.
