Title: 28 weeks later.......

What a great follow up, i was expecting the fact the USA had taken over London it would be a run and gun movie, but as usual it all goes SNAFU.

Great film if you know London, you get to see a lot more of it.

Only down side camera work gives you motion sickness.

Oh and see it at the cinema because one scene really needs the big screen

looking fwd to this

will see it during the week

my only gripe is after reading a few reviews too much of the plot has been given away

I enjoyed it too.  Thought the music was good.

That piece of music has been used in both films and it really builds the tension. I always avoid film trailers and riviews as they are such spoilers these days, I knew this would be good.

NOTICEi didn't give any plot away myself.

I liked the cinematography a lot...very fine sense of London, empty and brooding

good performance from Robert Carlyle as usual


found the story a bit one dimensional


think Day of the Triffids...if anyone remembers that!

Classic John Wyndham book that translated well to screen. Triffids had such a  big impact on me as a kid that I still lop the tops off daffodils occasionally (apologies to the welsh kippers) as a pre-emptive strike.

seen it on wednsday


great film,,great start to the movie,then it just gets better and better


my only critique is  it's too damn dark at times

but the empty london streets are done excellently,maybe they could only shoot at 4 in the morning in the summer,thus the gloomy background

and a great soundtrack

Great follow up on a film they could very easily have ruined.

The moral message in both films........

Your better off with the Zombies than the Squadies
