Flawed but great fun! (Review #4)

Rating: Null/10 (16 May 2004)

Simon Pegg is a funny guy, why is he funny? Maybe because he's just 'so terribly' English, maybe it's just born talent, either way "Shaun of the Dead" is worthy of many people's viewing...
Originally I wasn't keen on watching this film at the cinema as I am no major fan (don't watch them!) of Pegg's television efforts like 'Spaced' but friends dragged me and although in places my thoughts were correct (because SotD is very much like a television movie) I was really glad I watched it... Many laughs and a good spoof on the Zombie movie genre. The support cast are all in all pretty good and I was happy to see brief cameo's by Martin Freeman of "The Office" and Matt Lucas of "Little Britain" 7/10
