A nice addition to the zombie genre

Rating: 8/10 (24 July 2005)

The first time I saw this film as a rental, it seemed pretty average. After multiple viewings via cable (it seems to be a favorite on HBO), my opinion has gone well up.
The film does not necessarily have tons of scares, but plenty of suspense and action. I've always believed that Anderson has done a great job of creating isolation spaces, and this is no different.
The acting is also decent, Michelle Rodriguez is not great, but let's face it is great to look at. I like Eric Mabius quite a bit, and Milla is as convincing as one might be with a supermodel kicking ass etc.
All in all I'd recommend the film, however the sequel was another matter.
