28 Days Later

[Radiohead]

so it was not nearly as scary as i thought it would be.
kind of slow but i think it was intentional and therefore i wasn't getting near as bored as i did last week during the hulk.
i liked the baseball bats.
it was excellent until they got to the 'other group' which was kind of eh, but i still thought it was pretty good altogether.
anyone else see it yet?

[downflow311]

i held off on it, but i wanted to see it. i heard it was slow, which is why i didnt go.

[spiderman_2k]

Its been released in the UK for quite a while now
I thought it was good it seems alot of people have the same grumbles about it turns bad when they hook up with the army, but aside from that i thought it set the mood and atmosphere very well. The deserted London scenes were brilliant and the Infected were a brilliant idea. Well worth checking out IMO

[jpmartin]

The trailer to this movie looked amazing with all its visual sequences in London...the music.....i thought wow we are all in for a treat. I saw it yesterday and what a major disappointment. Usually Horror movies have alot blood, gore, and great scares. This movie did not deliver any of these. Minus the army front lawn killings.....I only counted 5 zombie deaths......What was Danny Boyle thinking????????Re-invented Zombie movies yeah right more like re-invented boredom.

"Wrong Turn" actually lived up to the horror genre.

[italianstallion]

wrong turn was great, i havent seen 28 days later, i think im gonna see it on tuesday.

[spiderman_2k]

So the person who says 28 days later has no gore doesnt consider
An incredibly vicous machette attack on a recent-infected Gory?? Also i'd like to say that he didnt need excessive amounts of blood and gore as its the Atmosphere that is so chilling in this movie, the idea that u can wake up and their is not a single familiar face to see.

"28 Days Later" seemed 28 days long. It wasn't a horror movie or even a scary movie. It was just a boring movie. Danny Boyle went way off track with this one.

I was expecting a pretty scary movie but I actually thought it was sort of interesting how it turned out...I liked how it showed different ways people would react in that sort of situation, even the army guys..boo on them...but that end scene in the rain with Jim running around with the army guys was cool...just for visual effect..he was crazy looking

not what I expected but I still walked away thinking it was a good movie

[Frodo284]

I enjoyed it quite a bit. I didn't love it..it wasn't as scary as critics say but it was a good action horror flick. I don't see where you all get it was slow. I thought the story was great with the army and all and i thought it just got better when that came. The zombies and gore and stuff were good not enough zombie's though and i thought it ended well. You all are just being to picky about it

[spiderman_2k]

There should have been more zombies and less army after they reached the base it kind of went downhill.

[Alexander JL]

I like slow movies. But is this one really worth it?

[spiderman_2k]

Its not slow.....
The first three quaters is good when they meet the army like i said it kind of goes downhill....

[downflow311]

so its basically a rental flick?

I was going to see it this weekend, but for some odd reason my theater decided to add another screen for Charlie's Angels2 instead of screening this. Hopefully they'll screen it next week and I'll see it while everyone else is at T3.

I just saw this today, not thinking it would be all that great. I really enjoyed it, though. Boyle did a good job of holding a reasonable level of suspense throughout the movie, making it much more interesting to watch. The actors made the plight of the characters very believable, increasing the movie's emotion. And I loved the music.

A-

[Radiohead]

i would like to add that the film had a really good soundtrack with some outstanding artists providing some fine tunes.

[necronon99]

28 days later is gonna be remembered
its smart

[angelusrp]

Was it just me or did this movie seem to rip- off the sequel to Resident Evil. Theres talk about
a sequel and it basicly leads off when she wakes up in that hospital and goes up into the city.
Which is were 28 days later started....a guy waking up in a hospital bed with hoses injected in him
and part of his head is shaven.. just like hers in RE. Then they go outside and have to deal with
zombies... very similar to me.

[Oj]

Yes, very similar to a movie that has never been made...

[spiderman_2k]

I think the person means the final scene of Resi, which is very true, she steps out of the hospital and everything is deserted, but that is where the similarities end.

[Oj]

I see. I never saw the movie, I didn't know it ended like that.

[Costa]

How can you say this film is slow. What did you expect for him to wake up and be chased by zombies throughout the streets of London for two hours. People who complain about films such as this are the same people can't cope with films which has more then 3 characters or people who wait eagerly for the next Adam Sandler film. Some people are so narrow minded that they define a horror film as a film that has to make you jump.

[Dogbert0228]

Staring July 25th, Fox Searchlight will be attaching a new, darker ending to 28 Days Later, after the credits, in theatres all around the country. I wasn't going to go see this, and maybe I'll still wait for the DVD, but this sounds like a cool move for any major studio to make. Will this encourage anyone to go see the movie for the first time, or again? And should other studios follow suit?

[Alexander JL]

When I first heard the title, I thought it was the sequel to a certain Sandra Bullock movie...

[spiderman_2k]

LOL i have seen some people think that..its funny when they say i hated Sandra in that movie and a sequel would be even worse...

[Alexander JL]

Why oh why couldn't they have called this movie 32 Days Later... or something like that?

[weich]

I really thought that this was a good movie. The whole thing was well written, well acted, well produced, etc. The movie was subtle, not in your face horror. Those of you who dislike this movie, do you also dislike Jaws, or The Shining. It's the thought of danger, knowing that something or somethings lurk just out of sight that provide fright.


SPOILERS!!!!!


Althought many people dislike the last third of the movie, including the ending, I thought this was a very strong point. It re-enforced the "Lord of the Flies" type of horror. It showed just how horrible people can act when they have no hope, no fear from the law. Allowing Jim to unleash Germs into the crowd was like sending him back to his family. All the soldiers got what they deserved. I saw both endings, and I enjoyed the original much better. I really like the closing scenes where it showed the infected starving to death, pale and ghastly. It re-iterated the fact that these were not Zombies, but people infrected with a disease that allowed them to do nothing but kill.

so its basically a rental flick?

Just watch it
