"Superior sequel"
The rage virus that decimated England is thought to have run its course, and the US military oversees the reintroduction of British citizens to a protected zone. The existence of this sequel testifies to the fact that this does not go smoothly.

This ultraviolent film is superior to the first, which had a very lackluster ending. The vision of director/co-writer Juan Carlos Fresnadillo and co-writers Rowan Joffe, E.L. Lavigne, and Jesus Olmo is bleak, uncompromising, and even heart-breaking. There are many sympathetic characters, but every act of tenderness results in disaster, resulting in a world where humanity's better nature actually works against it, possibly resulting in its ultimate destruction. The movie falters a bit at the end when it reintroduces a character in a very contrived manner, but it is not enough to derail this powerful film. Robert Carlyle stands out in the excellent cast.


"Decent zombie flick, but too many plot holes"
28 Days Later was a surprise hit, so you knew there would be a sequel. This is a decent zombie flick -- except these zombies are wicked fast runners! -- but there were just too many plot holes.

[Note: Some spoilers follow.] I never figured out why the people infected with the rage virus never attack each other rather than concentrating exclusively on the uninfected. Given they are so whacked out as to not be able to even feed themselves -- we are told that everyone infected the first time around is dead of starvation -- how are they able to resist going after each other? Another point: Would the authorities really be intent on repopulating London so soon after the infection? If they were, shouldn't they have done a better job of guarding the ways into and out of the "green zone"? Why have armed guards posted every two feet inside the quarantined area and then have few guards at the entrances? The two kids have no trouble sneaking out, so you would expect the infected would have had little trouble breaking in. And given how important the infected -- but asymptomatic -- mother is, why wouldn't she be guarded more closely? The father is able to visit her without much trouble. They have all these guards everywhere and then when they have an infected person on their hands, they don't bother to guard her closely? A few implausible things are bound to occur in any sci-fi movie, but when the writers get this sloppy it seriously detracts from enjoying the film.

"Just plain awful"
I'm an old hand at horror movies. I've watched them for a long time, and seen lots of them. I like intelligent horror, not the "let's spend the whole budget on tubs of blood and guts from a slaughter house" horror.

I loved the original 28 Days Later. I loved all the possible endings they had shot for 28 Days later (well, the story board idea sucked). It made me think, and even made me rethink my view or irradiated fruits :D

28 Weeks Later sucked. No thought was involved I the movie at all. Just sit back and watch people scream and run for the red colored corn syrup. Ants must have thanked their ant god for all the food the props department provided them. The trees of the world must have breathed a sigh of relief that almost none of them were cut down to be script paper.

The story is inconsistent. In the first movie we're told that animals DO get the Rage infection (hence the animal to human transfer). In 28 Weeks Later, they say animals CAN'T get the infection. Two children are flown from the safety of Spain to the quarantined London. What part of QUARENTINE is not understood? What father would have his children flown into that special hell? Sure, the mother has an immunity to the infection - how does that explain her not being a meal for all those infected people in the house?

Largely this feels like a bunch of people sat around and said "Hey, we could do a shoot in this location, what sort of zombie attack would look cool there?. There seems to have been no thought put into telling a coherent story in between the attacks.

This sequel was so bad I'll avoid anything more from this soon-to-be trilogy. If I could have the memory of 28 Weeks Later wiped from my mind, I would.

"Modestly successful sequel"
In a genre where sequels fare poorly, this exceeded expectation. The movie starts 28 weeks after England was ravaged by the virus in 28 days later. The US army has taken control of the country, the zombies have died out, and folks are slowly repopulating. The writers put a stronger family element than most zombie flicks. Of course things don't go well, and there's a lot of sprinting away from the bad guys. The movie's pace is very quick and it's over before you know it.

The downside are plot holes bigger than you could imagine. There's a lot more of "What are they thinking?" than usual - despite the genre. That said, I'll see 28 Months Later if they come out with it.

"Better Than The Origional"
"28 Weeks Later" is one of those rare sequels that is better than the first movie, 28 Days Later (Widescreen Edition). This time there is less of an attempt to make a "deep" movie and switched to a standard formula of suspense and action (oh, and gore too). Other reviews have covered the plot lines, so I will not rehash them here. The film has a strong story line, good acting, good suspense, and great special effects.

Recommended for fans of the genre.

"Watch An Epidemic Unfold", "28 Weeks Later" starts in the same time frame of "28 Days Later", and ends much further. Danny Boyle did an excellent job on the first, but he's not directing this time around Juan Fresnadillo is the main man now. The movie feels very different from the first film, being a die hard fan of the first film I was ready to be over critical.

Luckily the intro stirred up the same feeling received from the climactic parts of the original. After that the movie really shifts away from those ideals, and revolves more on a different approach of survival. While the rage infected civilians still play a prime role, the military becomes just as terrifying (and much more destructive). Instead of just waves of zombie like people, now explosions and helicopters make way. Snipers and turrets, fire fights, and military bases, hmmmm.

Sounds a bit more like an action film huh? Indeed it is, but it adds variety to the universe. The action does seem a bit over the top at some points, but the horror still feels just as real and intense as ever.
One will notice a larger budget was enabled this time, and they make sure to use it to its fullest.

Story wise, the objective is much clearer then the first. Yet after the initial break out, the story takes back seat to simply surviving. 28 Days focused more on rationing and slow paced moving about. This one is breakneck speed, for if they shall halt death is imminent. This really helps the film from becoming stagnant, the way it plays out slow moments will only hinder it. I personally liked the original story more, with the initial group of survivors confused and struggling on reaching salvation. It kept us wondering where would be safe, are they just stuck wandering? Gravitating us to feel their confusion and disbelief. 28 Weeks is less dynamic as it maintains a certain adrenaline rush spanning the entire course of the film. The music is still prominent, and knows when to cue the 'buddy hug the side of your seat, it's gonna' get creepy'.

Summarizing the story, England is deemed safe to relocate to. Precautions are taken direly. The U.S. military provides consistent steak outs. Upon being dubbed safe to live in again, a civilian quarters is established. Ruins of Englands apocalyptic nightmare still strain on, all around lay blood drenched buildings. Vacant stores and vehicles residing on the streets empty as can be. A father reunites with his children. Children are still not allowed, but exceptions are made. Without spoiling how, an infection resurfaces. Cures have been something parallel to a dream, but recent study suggest it may be possible. With the infection virally spreading faster then wild fire, U.S. forces must cleanse the area by all means.

What I really enjoyed about this film is although it takes place in a further time, you actually get to watch a breakout start. 28 Days, the protagonist awoke in a daze much after the course of the epidemic, and slowly saw it cease. A second sequel seems less trivial and more a necessity. A third title is set to take place in Russia. The 28 series is refreshing, chaotic, and very gory. Bonus features include comics, commentary, and a few behind the scenes look at the making of.

Side note, rage virus is not a zombie making mayhem. These 'zombie' like humans are fast, lethal, and blindingly angry. Infection can spread via bite, or any blood entering an open surface. Once infected, transformation is fast.

28 weeks is an impressive sequel, that avoids treading the same territory twice. A film worth the while of viewing, and hopefully good enough to get viewers into the first film (if they haven't seen it already).



"Meh", This is the sequel to 28 days later, and I thought it was pretty weak. An entirely predictable plot from start to finish, featuring annoyingly silly teenage protagonists, their dad, and a group of somewhat dim NATO soldiers. I was disappointed because the first film was well done, had an interesting plot and was surprising. This film the children take over with their TSTL (too stupid to live) antics, and the plot devolves into horror/slasher formula. The moment the children arrived in the military zone I predicted they'd do something really moronic. I was disappointed to be right.

I enabled close captions, which was convenient when I fast forwarded all the chase scenes that the director apparently considered plot development. This way I could read the sparse dialog without feeling the need to slow down.

The ending was almost the only interesting part of the film. Perhaps a sequel would be better.

Overall? I give this one a star. It was barely watchable and boring in its banality.

"Have No Fear, All Is Well... ", Months have passed since the rage virus descimated England. The infected have all starved to death, and the threat of future infection has been eliminated. Now, the US, under UN authority, has set up a green zone in the heart of London where survivors and those who were away during the viral holocaust can begin new lives. Eventually, England will be re-populated, the terror will be a distant memory, and the world will rejoice. OOPSY! Something's gone wrong! An infected has somehow survived and infiltrated the green zone! How could this be? All precautions have been taken. All proper procedures followed. The military is in complete control. In spite of all this, the rage is spreading again! Chaos and anarchy have replaced order and civil structure! The whole thing has come apart! Our new utopia has been destroyed, leaving a seething hell in it's place! Hope has been devoured by hopelessness and insanity! The infected have escaped the green zone and are rampaging once more! It's alright, the military is doing it's best to stop this renewed plague! Don't worry, I'm sure the UN is already working on a new and improved plan! Nothing can possibly go wro...

"UH VERY CREEPY", Let me say right off this film is creepy as hellz, it's sort of has a low budget feel, which makes it seem very real. It's amazingly violent and from the start you know your in for a disturbing ride. At times, the violence seems gratuitous, and one scene where one of the main characters attacks the other is really disturbing. For what it is, it succeeds, frankly if you looking for a creepy apocolyptic horror film you'll probably be pleases, but otherwise you might out to skip this or be forewarned, you may have trouble sleeping afterwards, it's that creepy.

"decent, if unspectacular, zombie film", "28 Weeks Later" picks up where "28 Days Later" left off. The virus that's been turning ordinary human beings into flesh-eating zombies has apparently run its course, the infected humans have all died of starvation, and Britain is slowly being repopulated with many of the citizens who fled the scene at the start of the epidemic. One of those returnees is Don (played by Robert Carlyle), who is suffering from survivor's guilt after leaving his wife in a moment of panic to be devoured by the creatures. Or was she? Suffice it to say, it's hard to keep a good virus down and soon London is in the grip of a major new outbreak of the illness. Rose Byrne, Jeremy Renner, Imogen Poots and MacKintosh Muggleton (what a great name!) play various characters who spend the bulk of the movie running for their lives from the menace.

Zombie pictures have become such a staple of the horror movie genre that it is hard for anyone to do anything particularly novel or original with them anymore. Zombie bites human, human turns into zombie, new zombie bites another human, and on it goes ad infinitum. That scenario may have been fresh and exciting when George Romero first introduced it to the world in "Night of the Living Dead" back in 1968, but it has been diluted through repetition and overuse ever since (partly by Romero himself with his endless, ever diminishing variations on the theme). The one innovation the original "28 Days Later" came up with was to speed up the zombies' movements so that they were no longer the lumbering creatures that anyone's 85-year-old granny could easily outrun.

"28 Weeks Later" has some genuinely suspenseful moments and a nice post-apocalyptic feel in its early stretches, but, like its predecessor, it tends to devolve into a tedious shooting-gallery sideshow the longer it goes on. Director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo's hurdy-gurdy filmmaking style, which is intended to replicate the chaos and pandemonium of the situation, often leads more to confusion than to clarification for the audience. Still, the movie contains a few cool plot twists and raises some thorny ethical issues, such as whether or not innocent people are to be sacrificed if that means ensuring the safety of the population as a whole. And there is certainly more than enough bloodshed and general mayhem to keep the zombiephiles among us rooted to our seats. Even the undead can have fun with that.


"full course meal", Zombie movie, zombie movie, zombie movie. If that's your cup of tea, this is Darjeeling. It has all the expected ingredients, and is aimed to please. Halfway through the film, some similarities to the situation in "Aliens" occurred to me, but "Aliens" was a great film with themes and acting that transcended horror. This movie is just "aim to please," and that's about all, but done with a good budget. As in most standard horror films, there are characters who commit some stupid, and often selfish, acts, leading to the usual sense of overwhelming annoyance in the viewer. Isn't it funny that the main ingredients in standard horror films is a sense of overwhelming annoyance, overwhelming anticipation, and overwhelming terror? "28 Weeks Later" will serve up large, satisfying proportions of all three for all the zombie ravenous out there. Eat it up and keep your heart pumping for the next coming feast. The party never ends. Aaaarh, slobber, slobber.

Viewing suggestion: check out "Children of Men" if you haven't already. Same kind of energy, but that one borders more on the great. The Spanish directors have arrived.

"29 Weeks Later is a Successful Follow-up", 28 Weeks Later (Widescreen Edition)
"28 Weeks Later" is a successful follow-up to "28 Days Later", even though I rarely like sequels. It is a different movie with different character motivations. I really like the way Robert Carlyle's character haunts the film. I won't be a spoiler, but the end is as chilling as it is slightly confusing. I recommend it on its own merits, but do see "28 Days Later" first, to see how the virus began. I only wish Cillian Murphy had made it into the sequel, however, as I said, these are different characters, and they are well-played out.

"Time flies when you're running for your life", There's always that extra obstacle to conquer when making sequels, for the lovers of the first movie the second needs a reason to exist, it has to be real, strong and carry the story further than one could have imagined. I really enjoyed "28 Days Later" because I got to see it in a half empty theater with a friend, and it felt so real and brutal that I walked out with my knees shaking. Then I saw this movie at home and while it still made me cringe I don't think that it was the lack of super sized screen that made the movie feel smaller than the first, somehow as good as it was there were flaws to it that made it hard for me to give it more stars.

Overall I'm glad I saw it, it was scary, bloody, gross, there was lots of close run ins and plenty of super hungry, super fast infected zombies but the little things that allowed the outbreak spread again made me shake my head in disbelief. At one point I was laughing (the scene in the dark at the stadium escalator) because it was so ridiculous and then I was flabbergasted at the bad decisions, like the new kids who arrived at the cleaned now London sneaked out to get something from their old home even thought it was forbidden to leave, they simply took this dramatic stance against everyone's safety as they opened the portals to hell for everyone else. I was surprised to see who was the main carrier of the virus and then who spread it to everyone else, I know the zombies were fast but the so called safe army guarded compound was like kindergarten during an Easter egg hunt, the infected ravaged anyone they pleased and it seemed that even all those weapons and precautions didn't do much to stop the spread.

The movie looked good, I liked the eerie and forlorn mood and it was a good chunk of horror watching on a rainy Sunday but the little bits of stupidity that well, allowed for the sequel to exist were little too much. At the end it left me feeling depressed, so I guess goal accomplished! Not bad but not the greatest although worth the watch for horror fans. I am guessing that if there is another entry it will be called 28 months later, now that would be interesting to see...

"Awful Views", I love this type of theme that are based on "The End of the World", but I hate this type of directors modality that they try to impress the viewers by making almost 90% of the movie on close ups scenes.

I think they think that the viewer will imagine what is going on, but when I seat there to watch a movie I want to see what is going on and have good views of the whole scene; I want to see the big picture not everything so close that you opt to press fast forward to move on.

Yes! I was one of those; I did press fast forward because the scene tends to produce me some vertigo when this director shouted all scenes like close ups ones!!!

Almost 90% were that close to the face of people or to the fight that you don't understand what is happening for sure, you only know is a fight or a chase.

I am not sure if you understand me, in simple words, all scenes of chasing and all fights were so close that one can't figure out what is going on precisely.

In my opinion is a bad movie!

PS. Other Directors did the same for example on Alien vs Predator 2 and Transformer. Scenes shouted so close that you can't figure out exactly what is happening.
