Interesting premise to a zombie movie. Fast zombies are absolutely terrifying. The human element to this zombie movie is the weak part of this movie.
Never commented on this ? Shame on me.
Of course by far the best zombie film out there, a true masterpiece a fantastic music score, Boyle did the best such a movie. It inspired and redefined and resurrect the genre.
I think it is time for the 28 years later now.
Severely overrated film. Aged horribly because of the way it was filmed, acting isn't great, the story is severely unrealistic and it's pretty darn boring to be honest.
I really don't see why this gets so much love.
Boring. i hated the way it was shot. Acting is....meh. I was disappointed. Not enough fun.
watching this was like watching saw on my friend's ipod in 2006 under a desk during our TA period except i'm pretty sure the ipod still looked better
Great concept, intensely British, and all around good movie. I feel the crappy filming added to the feel. But in my opinion not as good as the hype. Worth watching, but go in with lowered expectations. Felt more like a crazy episode of Doctor Who then a horror/zombie movie.
One of the best zombie movies ever made and all others shall be judged against it
I was very disappointed by this highly acclaimed horror thriller: the first part was OK, but not really scary. In the 2nd part, after Jim, Selena and Hannah find the military camp, everything that happens is kind of stupid. Additionally I didn't like the ending very much...
My all time favourite zombie movie. Sorry, Romero.
I liked the beginning, the part about finding more survivors, it's cliché but it's okay....
Mark's death caused by the protagonist, is very cliché....
The scene of the flat tire and the "zombies or infected" was good, cliché but good...
The most bittersweet part was Frank's death, dying that way....
The part of the soldiers wanting to rape the women was good, but the way Jim appears...
A scene I liked was when he sticks his fingers in the soldier's eyes...
How the infection starts is ironic....
8/10
people complain about the quality but i think it made it better
This is one of the movies that started the whole zombie media hype. The Walking Dead copied the start of this movie almost 1 to 1.
I would even go so far that I'll say this movie is like The Terminator, but for the zombie horror genre. 20 + Years later, some elements of the movie are outdated and copied to death.
28 Days Later will always be an iconic movie that basically changed the whole genre. Watch this before you watch any other zombie stuff, and you'll understand what I mean.
"You'd never think it... needing rain so badly. Not in fucking England!"
I definitely liked this more as a kid than I do now, but it is still pretty solid. I remember the idea of a fast zombie terrified me and now it has become more of a norm. Maybe the camera is a little too grainy at times, but it adds to the aesthetic.
A little overrated within the Danny Boyle catalogue.
Really great the cinematography in this, it’s a well aged product of its time. Love the dirty lo-fi quality, and even though the use of that technique has pioneered a lot of shit, it’s never used to cover up for its own cheapness here. In many ways it feels like two short films smashed together with a first half that’s driven by acting and characters, besides that it doesn’t do too much. I love the shots of the deserted city, but the characters are just fine (even a little cliché at points) and there’s not a lot action or intrigue. The supermarket scene also feels a bit out of place for me tonally. The second half, on the other hand, is great and the point where the film becomes more wild and substantive. The acting is good for the most part (though not really among the best work of Brendan Gleeson, Cillian Murphy and Naomi Harris), but the little girl is really bad. It’s hardly Danny Boyle’s best.
7/10
I dont know why people are hating on this movie. I love horrors and I feel that the older horror movies are far better than the new ones. This movie will forever be one of my favourite horrors.
It was okay. The acting was rather wonky at times, but gotta give it credit to where credit is due, there were some genuinely scary moments. Loved the music, though. Worth the watch if you have nothing else to do.
If you consider yourself as a zombie movies fan you are obligated to see this movie, one of the most iconic and well done zombie movies ever made.
and soon a cult classic
Watching in honor of Zombie Jesus Day. Haven't seen this movie in ages.
we gonna do what we gonna do.nice stunt action
The ninth Doctor as Major West. What a complete turnaround on this role! Fantastic as the Doctor always put it.
A more realistic variation to the zombie movies. Excellent movie!
Looks horrible, you can tell is small budget, nothing happens 34 mins in and then more depressing and boring stuff. This movie sucks!
Movie started real slow, loved Cillian Murphy voice.
It is dark, it has moment of good humor and levity.
Worth a watch.
