@The_Infamous_Boogyman Back in the day we had to physically cut the film reel. Now it's a meaningless phrase but it's still used. Movies are also still called "films" by some people even though they're shot on ugly digital.
Hi Jeremy , I met my wife 12 years ago . When we were freshly dating she saw me watching one of your videos and asked “ hey who’s that ? “ 12 years later and a kiddo added whenever we goto watch a movie she always ask first “ well what did Jeremy have to say about it “ Big love my man .
@@jayp743I mean that’s not a problem. You’re being honest about it. You like the 2nd the best. If more would just admit that they preferred what Weeks offered instead of grifting for the sake of the grift.
Part that got me was when the soldier looks at his mom confused when she starts walking after he carried her for so long. " she can walk?" 😂 Plus the whole thing with her calling her son daddy and the soldier going wtf.
When he came on the scene. That was best part of film. Honestly don’t know how it got 88% on rotten. Didn’t hate it but mad wasn’t great. So much stuff didn’t make sense and no explanation 😂
@@jamescranford5651 whats interesting is that mass effect was so extremly strong throughout that the ending is garbage and a letdown but it stays a memorable masterpiece.
Trash movie They never explained why the mother killed that first zombie why she could feel and save the pregnant zombie Second they don't explain how the doctor survived so long then almost gets killed easily right after he appears in screen by the alpha that he did not kill for some reason Why not let the mother live anyway she has cancer she still had a couple of weeks It's dumb fast made They killed the father carachter
@@rocklee8847just say you didn't watch your movie. The mother explained sometimes she knows what happening the only reason the doctor almost died was because he was helping the kid and the baby and the alpha had their scent. The mother knew she was gonna die soon so why would she be a burden to her son half dead trying to get home when they almost died getting ther
I mean he says it does they just kind of shot it and left it in the trunk because it set up the infection being released onto mainland Europe just for this movie to go “uh actually no”
It should be noted that, in the viral promotional materials for this film, the attack on Paris IS mentioned in passing. The outbreak from 28 Weeks Later was halted by NATO/UN forces and eventually pushed out, but the fact that the infection was able to get off the island was so disturbing to High Command, the setting for 28 Years Later is a natural fallout from that experience. Basically, the world has given up on trying to repopulate GB (as the risk is too high from potentially rescuing "survivors" that are immune but can still carry/spread the disease). Hence we get a scenario where the pockets of survivors that dwell within the GB mainland will not be given any rescue, or support and are under UN surveillance 24/7 for the rest of their lives. So even though the UN is aware that pockets of communities exist within the UK going about their lives trying to survive in a post Rage Virus world, they will have no contact and do nothing to assist them. That is essentially the set up that leads into the 3rd film. The world has simply moved on from GB and the containment of the Rage Virus.
Honestly a very realistic possibility given the disaster that occurred in the second film, regardless of protests about morals unless there was massive advancements in medicine and defence no country would bother with the risk
Nothing's worse than putting a bunch of movies on your watch list only to go back a few months later to see that it's been removed. Physical media all the way !
Yeah I think Aaron Taylor Johnson must have requested a “no nudity” clause for this movie. Samson was similar in appearance in addition to being naked. Maybe the director thought it would make up for those who were really looking forward to seeing ATJ more exposed on screen.😊
The ending was really jarring and took me out of it after it being so serious and melodramatic throughout the entire film. The shift in tone was just bizarre...
Agreed. Fortunately, they ended the movie right then and there by setting up the sequel. Aside from that kind of abrupt shift in tone, I thought this film was very well done.
i question whether or not you actually watched the movie if you think the ending was a dramatic shift in tone - the entire film was like a fever dream.
the people replying to you are so annoying. There is difference between the boy suffering with his mom, and Voldemort making jokes vs some vampire in colored tracksuit doing clockwork orange skits.
Regarding 28 Weeks Later and Paris falling, the Swedish soldier tells Spike and his mother something to the effect of “we pushed them out of continental Europe.”
which is utter bullshit, the uk fell but an outbreak in the heart of france in its capital is just fine??? its not like it was one zombie either, at the end of 28 weeks paris was FUUUCKED
@@smathlax When they cut between the old war footage and the townsfolk doing bow practice, there's also footage of the snipers shooting uninfected in 28 Weeks Later.
I mean to be fair these days women will lie there like a starfish and expect you to keep going for it for 28 minutes keeping the same rhythm and everything while doing nothing to turn you on or return the favor
Just finished watching here in Ireland. The first half started strong, full of fire but the second half lost momentum. I wish they had less drama and more action in the second half and given the infected more screen time.
@@victoruchiha4550The ending is just a tonal whiplash. The film really worked for me until that last moment. It ties into something that happens earlier and is planted throughout but it’s just kind of goofy.
@@chronicwizdom8638 seriously person, what movie are/is did you go into expecting about these movie????........... if someone is going into a zombie movie/28 ???? whatever movie then they expect zombie related stuff. for your @chronicwizdom8638 question, if you go into a zombie/infected type of movie and not know what to expect then why are you even watching this film or want to watch it????????????? go watch the over 2 previous 28 days/weeks later movie before you ask question.
Just seen it. This was my most anticipated movie of this year. Its hard to acknowledge that jeremy is completely right about this one. It had so much potential after the first 45 minutes.
@@neomatrix6160different director for that one (director of The Marvels) Boyle said in his Reddit AMA that he wants each film in the trilogy to be satisfying as a standalone watch but also function coherently as a trilogy so could go either way 🤷♂️
@@neomatrix6160 Maybe not in the way you would think. *spoilers* The trailer seemed to get you to think that the bone temple belonged to a group of zombies, but actually it was an old doctor who was just kind of weird. The zombies do seem more tribal, but are pretty much the same mindless creatures they have always been. I was hoping for something different about them but it just wasn't enough.
We got an immune baby, zombies getting pregnant, fighting ninjas that dress like Italians, alpha zombies with huge dongs. How did all this make sense on script 😂
First 45 minutes or so i was fully invested in it. Then gradually bit by bit, started to get more disinterested to the point where i was actually laughing at how bad it was and couldn't wait to get out of the theater. The ending was the shitty icing on the cake.
My thoughts on the “bullet time” kills They actually only happen in the beginning when Spike is seeing this all for the first time, cementing those moments forever for him. But at the end of the film as Spike has grown, the kills are more matter of fact and the choppy edits stop.
Nothing will ever beat the original 28 Days Later for me! So grounded and gritty and filmed in a way that makes you feel like you are inside the horror with the characters themselves! That’s my vote for the greatest “infected” movie of all time!
@@moonrivervayonetta it cured the infected's baby from the rage virus? placenta in real life is an insane part of biology and can cure cancer in the mother in lots of cases
Personally I thought that was going to lead somewhere, as if the mom being that sick meant she had a strain of the Rage virus inside her and she had something of a psychic connection with the Infected. Idk. Something cooler than whatever the fuck we got
i stayed in mexico a few days more for vacation to see this with my family and i showed them 2 weeks later one of my favorite zombie movies and i felt so bad watching this with them i felt like i wasted everyones time
It's totally okay for Jeremy to have a different opinion than most of the critics. He's got his own tastes. I typically walk out of the theater with similar feelings as him, but not everytime, so we'll see
I've seen many mixed reviews for this one. It seems these A24 style movies are always super divisive and always very wierd they either click for u or they don't
@@JoePizzeria007A24, for me, generally sticks the landing. Although, I did however watch “We Are All Going to the Worlds Fair” for the first time yesterday and I thought it sucked ass and, as a result, killed my desire to see “I Saw the TV Glow”. That being said, Danny Boyle is in a league of his own. If his name is attached to a project I’m interested. A24 has nothing to do with that. Same goes for Alex Garland and Robert Eggers.
@@brettsinger9565 not mixed but ive seen quite a few people now say its the years best movie and ive seen other people say it was horrible, only an A24 style movie can garner that kind of reaction difference
@@luisconde6201 fr, I just watched the first two for the first time right before seeing this one and I can say that 28 years later was my favorite by far
@@thomasmanders3626yes it does the fuck 😂😂 it’s the rage virus that’s clearly evolved creating more of a system for the infected like a hierarchy making them for sure more dangerous and strategic I think Don from 28 weeks started the hints of an Alpha infected because he was smart as hell in that film even avoiding the fire bombings and stalking his son
28 seconds after this film’s ending I wondered what the hell they were thinking. Act 1 is great. Act 2 had a bizarre tonal shift which did include some emotional payoffs. Act 3 fell flat on its face and basically turned the movie into Monty Python.
This perfectly describes exactly how I'm feeling after seeing it with my wife. She loved it, and I'm heartbroken. She compared the end of it and some kill scenes to Mortal Kombat.
The end had me going wild, the movie was extended into a boring exploration only for the kid to take his mother to her death to get her a cure but the illness is cancer, the doctor ends up killing the mother as if she didn't have more time to spare for her child, cremates her and gives her skull to his son. Like tf?
I’m sayin! This movie had so much potential to tell a great story while being a great zombie movie but it was trash. Was the mom pretending to be incoherent or wtf was up with that???? Don’t even get me started on that ending
The point was that it was going to be soon and she didn't want his kid to see her suffer and die. And the point of the skull was to give the closest thing to a burial that could be in this setting.
Even if she had more time, her condition was clearly quite bad and worsening. It’s likely she would have been suffering. She got to say goodbye and go peacefully.
I’m quite torn on the movie. On one hand, there’s some tense and terrifying action here. Especially in the first half and somewhat in the second. There is brilliance here. But the negative choices are so overwhelmingly glaring and loud. Especially that ending.
@@zerokool-2058we got 2 movies in this franchise that were essentially nonstop action. jumping 28 years later, being outnumbered and using bows and arrows to fight; did you really think it’d be the same movie 3 times in a row? there’s style AND substance, but it’s people like you who caveman it and go “i want world war z zombie, give me zombie “ ignoring the entire plot of the movie 😭
@HairyMart I think that the world's views about British culture has shifted dramatically since 2002. I think this is reflected in the film, especially the ending.
@@damnitralph. It sucked. Nobody is talking about WWZ zombies. This movie went away from the other two. First 35 minutes or so were good. After that it was all down hill. With a pointless story
As someone of English descent, I took the spliced in imagery of English history as a love letter to the spirit of England and how they persevered through tough times over the course of history. I also took it as Danny trying to highlight how society has regressed back to medieval times on the island. I adored it. I'm not surprised it was lost on a non English person.
From what I understand 28 months later was in the works after 28 weeks for a while but then got canned. Then recently I'm pretty sure I saw Danny Boyle talk about how after the amount of time that's now passed it just wouldn't make much sense to do a 28 months later. Even tho technically they still could as they could jump around whenever they wanted.
im a zombie fanatic….and i rated 28 days later as the greatest zombie movie ever made. this movie 28 years later is number 2 on my list of WORST MOVIES EVER MADE. the only movie worse was HOUSE OF THE DEAD 2004 (that one was so bad 90% of the theatre walked out after 40 mins) this movie sucked…on every level…there was no redeeming qualities, it was just god awful and i feel sorry for anyone who wasted their time and money.
I loved 28 weeks later the intro and then the code red part which was still ridiculous they didn’t have security on his wife and make sure no one entered. I will watch 28 years later with more hesitation though I hear it’s all over the place hopefully they give us 28 months later and what would be really cool a prequel of movies about when the virus takes over
I've been a huge fan of the franchise for 20 years, and this was a betrayal of everything that made the franchise special. It was like the last half of dusk till dawn in a 28 days later skin suit. My entire family was laughing through the last 20 minutes at the utter absurdity.
28 Days Later is just a year younger than I am, though I saw the movie when I was around 7-9 years old. It got me from the getgo. It was executed amazingly, nothing was overdone or underdone (asides maybe the visuals if you wanna debate it, but I enjoyed the grainy/grungy feel of the camcorder video), there was enough suspense, enough horror, action, etc. etc. The song "In the House - In a Heartbeat" is legitimately one of the best movie tracks ever (i'll die on this hill). The movie is still a 10/10 even by todays standards. That being said, seeing mentions and "leaks" of this movie like 10 years ago or maybe even longer, there was so much suspense built up for it in my brain, waiting almost half of my life for it to release and *this* is the result... I feel like an arthouse A24 film made by 20-somethings would have been a better release than this, especially looking at the 2nd half.
Trash movie They never explained why the mother killed that first zombie why she could feel and save the pregnant zombie Second they don't explain how the doctor survived so long then almost gets killed easily right after he appears in screen by the alpha that he did not kill for some reason Why not let the mother live anyway she has cancer she still had a couple of weeks It's dumb fast made They killed the father carachter
@@FrEEmAnLivELoVe saw a screening of it today with danny boyle the director who did a qna after apperently cillian murphy is gonna do a similar ending scene or something like when the next movie ends to set up the third movie. Danny called him the golden pot at the end of the rainbow for the next one
*Spoilers below* There was a couple of things that ruined it for me. How are 7 people who are on night watch at the towns front gates asleep? Im meant to believe all 7 of those guards go to sleep every night when they are meant to be on watch. How has the town even survived this long with tactics like that. Its kind of a theme aswell because the boy falls asleep on watch too when he is in the church. How have these people survived this long! When Spike takes his mother away from the town, the dad doesn't go after them? He KNEW the son would be taking him to the doctor. He could have caught up. The tide thing could have held him back but the son managed to leave and also sneak back and drop off the baby so i find it hard to believe he would not have left as soon as the tide was low enough to cross. He would have known exactly when the tide was low enough to cross. The Doctors fire on constantly, and that doesn't attract anyone? Like dangerous survivors. When they get there, they just hang by a fire at night with no security accept the river. But its clear when the alpha breaks through, that it was never safe there. Just boggles me the like of survival instincts any of the characters had at this late stage of the apocolypse. And what the hell was it with those bats/crows that came with the first alpha when he crossed the land bridge? Dont tell me he could control them. And then why was there like 4 fat asian zombies? 3 in the forest, when they go for their first hunt, then the one who crawls up to spike as he sleeps in the church with his mum. So wierd
To be fair, I’d imagine they’d get pretty lazy on the watch. They’re probably safe since Infected can’t swim and most wouldn’t bother trying. The tide was also nearing high anyway. I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t let the dad leave. They’d know he would chase him, and we can see numerous people at the house when he gets the letter.
To survive 28 years, you could not be getting lazy on watch, they would have a system where someone is always awake. Just because you are "probably" safe doesnt justify having noone awake on watch because anything could happen. Also they would certainly let the dad leave since they even say your free to go and come back any time but dont expect anyone to go looking for you if you dont return. Furhter more, the idea that spike could walk up to the village, put a baby on the gate, and be gone with enough time for noone to see him is just insane.
@@tylerbacoka4248I don't understand where was Doctor even getting his material and supplies from when he's in the middle of a forest infested by zombies
I didn’t mind the film to be honest, 7/10 for me. One big question I have is why did the Doctor kill off the mother in the furnace so quickly after her diagnosis? She may have had a lot more time to survive… didn’t make sense to me.
All of this could be explained with 28 weeks later. That woman who was a carrier, passed on a very different strain of the virus to her husband. The father of the children in that movie was actually capable of thought when he was infected. Which would explain everything when you think about it.
It sucks because we could of got an interesting film that explains how it "evolved". Instead it feels like they only said it evolved as a cheap way to explain how the virus survived so they could cram out this movie.
It's so strange that it handles 28 weeks like it didn't happen BUT the film actually references 28 Weeks and straight up shows footage from it?! That intercut medieval film has a scene showing archers firing arrows then flashes scenes of the snipers shooting civilians in weeks. Very odd. And that ending literally left me leaving the cinema thinking I'd been pranked
It literally acknowledges 28 weeks later they say the infection was driven out of Europe. The second wave of infected from that film obviously evolved somehow and learned to eat and drink water. It's not that hard.
@@zerokool-2058 the director said he was aiming for the idea of backwards evolution to their new circumstances instead of evolving technology which they didnt have
@@zerokool-2058 it was showing parallels of britain going back to the dark ages in terms of technology. if you couldnt get that anything above marvel tier writing must go over your head
@@Mango-cp1im if you need flashbacks scenes of medieval warfare to show that the post apocalyptic world has devolved. Maybe you are the one that can't handle anything over marvel tier writing.
My quick comment review. I really enjoyed what the first part of the movie could’ve been. The second part, the majority of the movie, was laughably awful.
Google Jimmy Savile. I'm not exactly sure what it has to do with it, but my British homie says we Yanks wouldn't understand it and I think I might now? I'm not sure but if it's what I think it's going to be very interesting where it goes
That long blonde hair and tracksuit look belonged to a children's TV presenter in the UK. He was very famous and years later exposed as a child abuser in a massive British scandal. In the continuity of 28 Years Later he would have been an idol to Jimmy when he escaped the outbreak in the 90's and never would have been discovered to be an evil guy. It points to how Jimmy has grown up and become the leader of a violent group with no adult concept of the world, his strongest influence being a prevented children's TV host. Basically is scary as fuck. If you meet someone looking like this in the UK today, run!
@@jeremybrunk9576he definitely looked like Jimmy Saville but why?? Saville was a talk show host who turned out to be the most vile pedophile in the U.K. Batshit insane way to end a film
Danny Boyle is a rare director these days that consistently casts and directs child actors to amazing effect. If you haven’t seen “Millions,” you are missing out. Looking forward to seeing 28 Years Later. 👍
First half? Good.. Second half? Very very... Very very very.. Very bad. Pregnant zombies? Very very bad.. Fat zombie eating worms? So dumb. All these years and I still see eye to eye with Jeremy Jahns and his rating of movies.
One thing this movie does that jarred me is that pretty much every time a character does something extremely stupid or irresponsible (and there are a lot examples), they somehow escape any repercussions and don’t end up as zombie food.
Everybody is trying to film something on an iPhone. I both love and hate it. On one hand, it shows, yes, the best camera you have is the one you carry with you, and your skills and knowledge are what will help you. On the other hand, it's still a phone. Just because we can doesn't mean we should.
It's a scam They use specialized lenses and stabilizer setups on top of iphone which themselves cost hundreds of thousands of dollars So its the same as saying Avatar was made on an android phone....if the android phone was used to issue the render command to nvidia cloud compute
@@goochipoochie I mean yeah, you aren't going to make a beautiful movie with just the phone, but still, the phone being the brain is damn impressive. But I agree with you, they don't tell you exactly what they did to make it look the way it did. It is misleading. Still, I think it's a positive message for people who think they need a cinema camera before they make a short film or any film. Knowledge of video production will get you very far, and that knowledge will make the phone work for you. BUT I don't think we should use a phone as the brain over a pro cine camera for a big budget feature film. It's an unnecessary cut.
I don't think the ending ruined the entire movie for me. I think it hit the message it was trying to at least hit, growing up in the apocalypse. Spike's loss even at the end of his difficult journey and a mother's love. Where those guys at the end hadn't really grown up.
Then the spinoffs.... 28 feet later, 28 yards later, 28 miles later....all the way up to 28 light years later. And of course, the metric versions dubbed in ye old english for our non American friends....
Dawg, they literally show footage from 28 weeks later of the snipers taking out the infected when the outbreak happens. The fact the second outbreak managed to reach mainland Europe is the reason that the outside world has given up on the British Isles. Danny Boyle saying they're not following up on those storylines just means that we will not be seeing the kids from Weeks in the new trilogy.
Finally someone else who thinks the same, when they first went to the mainland that was such a cool adventure but after they got back it fell flat on its face with the story. Even the opening I was hoping would show more of how the outbreak happened but it was rushed and weak.
@@miscedezshaw86honestly bro yea I would wait for that, as much as it hurts to say. The first like 1 hour was cool except again I felt like the beginning was really rushed and the ending was so goofy
I’m not sure this review is honest enough. The first act was quite good, the rest of the film was pathetic. If Boyle wanted to get weird with it, he should have gone WEIRD. Instead, he went boring. I think after a while of boring, he remembered that he needed to end it on a high, and so it became absurd to the point of ṟet@rded. I mean that ending. That wasn’t cool, or unique, or interesting. It was juvenile, lazy, uninspired nonsense. Garbage film, 2/10 at most.
People are certainly divided but I think it is easier to understand why each side feels as they do. It was not at all the movie I expected or wanted, but I absolutely loved it. It was so cathartic and just beautiful. It was NOT a zombie action film that most want. That sucks. My wife refused to let me take my son because of the violence and scares, but in the end I was happy she stopped me because i would have been self conscious about completely letting go with emotions to the point where I was sobbing.
Crying to this movie is unironically pathetic lol go to a therapist lmfao. Also, youre glad you didnt bring your child because you cried? Not because of the 100 shots of zombies straight hanging dong? Father of the the year right here LOL. "I dont mind if my kid sees bloody naked violent monsters, but they can NOT see daddy cry" YIKES.
what were you crying about??? there was like no emotional connection to the characters in my opinion. Maybe a little but for spike but that’s about it. I wish the movie was more like the start of it with some emotional elements put into it.
Based on reviews that I've seen including Jeremy's it appears you really don't need to watch or rewatch the previous films in order to follow 28 Years eapecially since their starting a new triology which I'm glad that's the case
It retcons the first two films (infected starving, outbreak in Paris), so it definitely fells like a spiritual successor in the way Army of the Dead was to Dawn of the Dead
@Blackarachnia1996 how is it a retcon? If they did starve to death and not evolve why would this movie exist unless it's Dawn of the Dead the world getting back to normal? I don't think it's a retcon I think it's evolution
I saw the movie today and 2/3 of the way thru, all I could think was, "What is the point of this film?" More than 14 years to write this sequel script and this is the best they could come up with? Spike and his dad went out for one day and were almost killed by the infected. He goes out with his mom and they go thru the countryside hardly meeting any of them? And then the doctor shows up just in time to save them from the Alpha? And, from the 2nd film, I thot the concept was that after 28 weeks, the infected have starved to death. How did any of them last 28 years?
Only to be disappointed most people say the beginning was mid at best the rest was garbage they should’ve kept to the original theme from days/months movies if this ip was its own thing it would’ve bin better just to different
@@LorenzoC2314what are you talking about you literally dont know me if i watched it or not and the funniest thing is you’re on a video about another person’s opinion get MOGGED
@@OyyyVeyyy-h8tdifference is I’m not letting his opinion dictate anything about the movie. You on the other hand are saying “most people say the beginning was mid” so clearly you going straight based off other people’s opinion and acting as if you’ve seen it. But good try
Fresh out of the theatre (no spoilers) peak zombie action/suspense in the first hour, but that doesn’t take away from how heartfelt the second half is, I could always use more infected scenes but the films restraint made it a cut above others. Having watched 28 days later before the showing, but not growing up with the movie, I would say I loved Years so much more, though dialogue in Days is fantastic and it’s classic status can’t be denied. The ending doesn’t jump the shark in my mind, though the tonal shift halfway through the movie worked for me personally as a big fan of garland films
Thank you. Thank you so much. Wading through this comments section was making me feel despondent and frustrated. I loved the film as well, and felt like it was reaching for something really special and landed it. It seems though that most people just wanted a flat and derivative gorefest, since they think that that's what made 28 Days Later special, apparently. Thank you for being a breath of fresh air.
Understandable. But personally, I thought the camera angles and editing choices you mentioned, elevated the movie even more. There were defiantly aspects that were lacking, like some of the plot choices, but overall, I was incredibly impressed with the level of creativity and ability to produced a "zombie" movie that is a shift from the usual zombie movies, and the usual cookie cutter plotlines. Whereas, with this movie, I didn't know what to expect from the next scene. I also thought the B-roll footage added so much. more to the tense and creepy aspect of the movie. It felt like a nod to the old British folk horror movies from the 70s and 80s.
And Alex Garland has confirmed that they nuked France and in the Rageleaks website they mention that they pushed the infection all the way back to Britain
I will say, even if this movie has flaws, the first trailer is just amazing, the haunting read of Rudyard Kipling's poem "Boots" over images of a war, not a war among man but a war for survival, gave me goosebumps
I loved the first 30 minutes of the movie. The idea of an isolated community (and I think even before the apocalypse, that part of the countryside was a niche community that has specialized in archery) surviving that long, having experienced hunters guide the young when they come of age through a hunt. They could've done so much more with the idea of GB being isolated from the rest of the world, NATO soldiers on patrol getting stranded on the island, the undead evolving to become alphas, the concept of alphas breeding with other undead and the possibility of the infected offspring being the next stage of evolution for the undead. Its just ashame the ending of the movie made it seem like a horror comedy
Overall there were some really awesome parts. However, I feel some of the editing choices were strange. The random jump cuts and spliced scenes didn't fit. Then the ending felt like it was from another movie with the same actor. One thing I would like to say... the acting was pretty amazing.
The opening scroll of the film explains that the infection was pushed back from continental Europe - the didn't take 28 weeks out of canon, just didn't go with that plot, and summarised that they succesfully pushed the infected out of France and elsewhere. Also felt the bullet time was to highlight if the arrow hit a head, or heart.
The jump cut was so strong…it cut his hair
😂😂
Why they call it a CUT😅
I thought his hair looked different lmfao
@The_Infamous_Boogyman Back in the day we had to physically cut the film reel. Now it's a meaningless phrase but it's still used. Movies are also still called "films" by some people even though they're shot on ugly digital.

@@rocklee8847just say you didn't watch your movie.

The mother knew she was gonna die soon so why would she be a burden to her son half dead trying to get home when they almost died getting ther
28 weeks still happened. They literally have insert shots from the rooftop sniper scene in this movie.
I was thinking the selfsame thing.
You're expecting way too much from this guy. He isn't the brightest bulb.
I mean he says it does they just kind of shot it and left it in the trunk because it set up the infection being released onto mainland Europe just for this movie to go “uh actually no”
CHEAP EXCUSE!
They clearly retconned 28 weeks ago. Doesn’t matter how many clips they show.
It should be noted that, in the viral promotional materials for this film, the attack on Paris IS mentioned in passing. The outbreak from 28 Weeks Later was halted by NATO/UN forces and eventually pushed out, but the fact that the infection was able to get off the island was so disturbing to High Command, the setting for 28 Years Later is a natural fallout from that experience.
Basically, the world has given up on trying to repopulate GB (as the risk is too high from potentially rescuing "survivors" that are immune but can still carry/spread the disease). Hence we get a scenario where the pockets of survivors that dwell within the GB mainland will not be given any rescue, or support and are under UN surveillance 24/7 for the rest of their lives.
So even though the UN is aware that pockets of communities exist within the UK going about their lives trying to survive in a post Rage Virus world, they will have no contact and do nothing to assist them. That is essentially the set up that leads into the 3rd film. The world has simply moved on from GB and the containment of the Rage Virus.
Now that is disturbing
Honestly a very realistic possibility given the disaster that occurred in the second film, regardless of protests about morals unless there was massive advancements in medicine and defence no country would bother with the risk
Damn, sounds like brexit.
I was Mad when I heard 28 Weeks Later was made not canon but apparently it is then ?
im not too familiar with the lore and all, but is there a reason the infected haven't died of starvation?
Nothing's worse than putting a bunch of movies on your watch list only to go back a few months later to see that it's been removed. Physical media all the way !

I called him big d. Douglas in theater and everyone joined in as soon as he was on sceen again...
Yeah I think Aaron Taylor Johnson must have requested a “no nudity” clause for this movie. Samson was similar in appearance in addition to being naked. Maybe the director thought it would make up for those who were really looking forward to seeing ATJ more exposed on screen.😊
That quick jab at Star Wars was everything
Indeed.
Except Andor S1 and S2 is incredible and this movie esp the 2nd half was slop.
The ending was really jarring and took me out of it after it being so serious and melodramatic throughout the entire film. The shift in tone was just bizarre...
Agreed. Fortunately, they ended the movie right then and there by setting up the sequel. Aside from that kind of abrupt shift in tone, I thought this film was very well done.
did we watch the same movie? the movie clearly had a bizarre tone throughout the runtime.
i question whether or not you actually watched the movie if you think the ending was a dramatic shift in tone - the entire film was like a fever dream.

Its hard to acknowledge that jeremy is completely right about this one. It had so much potential after the first 45 minutes.
But knowing that 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is coming, does the film seem to set that up?
@@neomatrix6160No, boring
@@neomatrix6160different director for that one (director of The Marvels) Boyle said in his Reddit AMA that he wants each film in the trilogy to be satisfying as a standalone watch but also function coherently as a trilogy so could go either way 🤷♂️
@@neomatrix6160 Maybe not in the way you would think. *spoilers* The trailer seemed to get you to think that the bone temple belonged to a group of zombies, but actually it was an old doctor who was just kind of weird. The zombies do seem more tribal, but are pretty much the same mindless creatures they have always been. I was hoping for something different about them but it just wasn't enough.
I agree. This movie was great just got back from it
We got an immune baby, zombies getting pregnant, fighting ninjas that dress like Italians, alpha zombies with huge dongs. How did all this make sense on script 😂
Minus the Jimmy Saville gang, how do those other things not make sense?
And how did it make sense to put such a none existing story into 2 different movies? Just makes it weaker
the baby is not immune, the doctor outright said why it came out uninfected
@@ermwhatdaheck Yeah the placenta basically protected it from infection but who knows how its going to develop once its an adult.
Italians ? To me they looked more like Russians. With Nordic faces. 😅😂
First 45 minutes or so i was fully invested in it. Then gradually bit by bit, started to get more disinterested to the point where i was actually laughing at how bad it was and couldn't wait to get out of the theater. The ending was the shitty icing on the cake.
Sounds like you were expecting a generic zombie film, I personally loved it. Very over the place which is exactly what you want from a film like this.
I wasn't expecting anything other than a well made film especially from Danny boyle.@@Calum-v9m
My thoughts on the “bullet time” kills
They actually only happen in the beginning when Spike is seeing this all for the first time, cementing those moments forever for him. But at the end of the film as Spike has grown, the kills are more matter of fact and the choppy edits stop.
Nothing will ever beat the original 28 Days Later for me! So grounded and gritty and filmed in a way that makes you feel like you are inside the horror with the characters themselves! That’s my vote for the greatest “infected” movie of all time!
So, you’ve watched this one?
I agree although 28 weeks later opening and helicopter scene gives it a run for its money. 28 years later I'll give a 5.5/10
28 week its way better
Yeah it’s pretty crazy that a film that came out in 2002 still looks good, that grittiness, raw and felt very real, like it was actually happening.
What a fucking idiotic opinion@@BestiaDeLosBuhos

"Power of placenta"

@@moonrivervayonetta it cured the infected's baby from the rage virus? placenta in real life is an insane part of biology and can cure cancer in the mother in lots of cases
Personally I thought that was going to lead somewhere, as if the mom being that sick meant she had a strain of the Rage virus inside her and she had something of a psychic connection with the Infected. Idk. Something cooler than whatever the fuck we got
I was literally shaking my head in the theater
i stayed in mexico a few days more for vacation to see this with my family and i showed them 2 weeks later one of my favorite zombie movies and i felt so bad watching this with them i felt like i wasted everyones time

It's totally okay for Jeremy to have a different opinion than most of the critics. He's got his own tastes. I typically walk out of the theater with similar feelings as him, but not everytime, so we'll see
I've seen many mixed reviews for this one. It seems these A24 style movies are always super divisive and always very wierd they either click for u or they don't
@@JoePizzeria007 Strong score on Metacritic. I wouldn't call the reception mixed, even though there's a minority opinion that Jeremy has backed.
@@JoePizzeria007A24, for me, generally sticks the landing. Although, I did however watch “We Are All Going to the Worlds Fair” for the first time yesterday and I thought it sucked ass and, as a result, killed my desire to see “I Saw the TV Glow”. That being said, Danny Boyle is in a league of his own. If his name is attached to a project I’m interested. A24 has nothing to do with that. Same goes for Alex Garland and Robert Eggers.

@@thomasmanders3626yes it does the fuck 😂😂 it’s the rage virus that’s clearly evolved creating more of a system for the infected like a hierarchy making them for sure more dangerous and strategic
I think Don from 28 weeks started the hints of an Alpha infected because he was smart as hell in that film even avoiding the fire bombings and stalking his son
It is CRIMINAL that we didn’t get a new version of In A Heartbeat in this film.
28 seconds after this film’s ending I wondered what the hell they were thinking.
Act 1 is great. Act 2 had a bizarre tonal shift which did include some emotional payoffs. Act 3 fell flat on its face and basically turned the movie into Monty Python.
Yeah, the ending was nonsensical.

This movie was not good if you were expecting a sequel….
The end had me going wild, the movie was extended into a boring exploration only for the kid to take his mother to her death to get her a cure but the illness is cancer, the doctor ends up killing the mother as if she didn't have more time to spare for her child, cremates her and gives her skull to his son. Like tf?
I’m sayin! This movie had so much potential to tell a great story while being a great zombie movie but it was trash. Was the mom pretending to be incoherent or wtf was up with that???? Don’t even get me started on that ending
I thought about walking out after he places the head on the top….
The point was that it was going to be soon and she didn't want his kid to see her suffer and die. And the point of the skull was to give the closest thing to a burial that could be in this setting.
@@imforlife35Why?
Even if she had more time, her condition was clearly quite bad and worsening. It’s likely she would have been suffering. She got to say goodbye and go peacefully.

Not the confused thumbnail 💀
I’m quite torn on the movie. On one hand, there’s some tense and terrifying action here. Especially in the first half and somewhat in the second. There is brilliance here. But the negative choices are so overwhelmingly glaring and loud. Especially that ending.
This movie has one of the best teaser trailers I’ve ever seen. I was beyond hyped for this. Hearing it’s more style over substance is a real bummer
It suckked!!
Wait for online streaming.
@@zerokool-2058we got 2 movies in this franchise that were essentially nonstop action. jumping 28 years later, being outnumbered and using bows and arrows to fight; did you really think it’d be the same movie 3 times in a row? there’s style AND substance, but it’s people like you who caveman it and go “i want world war z zombie, give me zombie “ ignoring the entire plot of the movie 😭
Actually I would say it is more substance over style, the issue is that it's a very very British substance, that may not land with all
@HairyMart I think that the world's views about British culture has shifted dramatically since 2002. I think this is reflected in the film, especially the ending.
@@damnitralph. It sucked. Nobody is talking about WWZ zombies.
This movie went away from the other two. First 35 minutes or so were good. After that it was all down hill. With a pointless story
As someone of English descent, I took the spliced in imagery of English history as a love letter to the spirit of England and how they persevered through tough times over the course of history. I also took it as Danny trying to highlight how society has regressed back to medieval times on the island. I adored it. I'm not surprised it was lost on a non English person.
I thought that was great too but then it just got weird
Yeh i thought that was pretty obvious lol
@@edwarddeere4925 Yeah, especially with the woman speaking saying the same word three times. Became, eventually, annoying.
Why wasn't there a 28 Months Later?
Not sure and although it's too late now I think if they waited another couple years it would have been 28 years later since the first movie.
Back when 28 Weeks Later came out, i actually thought the next movie was going to be Months Later. 😂
They basically said it’s because it took so long for it to get developed, plus 28 years gives them a lot more time to play with
From what I understand 28 months later was in the works after 28 weeks for a while but then got canned.
Then recently I'm pretty sure I saw Danny Boyle talk about how after the amount of time that's now passed it just wouldn't make much sense to do a 28 months later. Even tho technically they still could as they could jump around whenever they wanted.
Cause it's been 19 years since the second movie lol
They made a mistake, they should’ve make 28 Months later before this one.

I've been a huge fan of the franchise for 20 years, and this was a betrayal of everything that made the franchise special. It was like the last half of dusk till dawn in a 28 days later skin suit. My entire family was laughing through the last 20 minutes at the utter absurdity.
I was so disappointed, I couldn't believe the shit they produced and released.
Different strokes for different folks. Loved it, personally. Probably ranks 2nd after the original and ahead of 28 weeks.
I don't get it but Danny Boyle has a habit of doing this. Think of the end of Sunshine...
what is the betrayal??
Already seen and loved it
@@orlandoluiz6852 theres no way you liked this poorly cut and shot movie, especially that clown festival ending
28 Days Later is just a year younger than I am, though I saw the movie when I was around 7-9 years old. It got me from the getgo. It was executed amazingly, nothing was overdone or underdone (asides maybe the visuals if you wanna debate it, but I enjoyed the grainy/grungy feel of the camcorder video), there was enough suspense, enough horror, action, etc. etc. The song "In the House - In a Heartbeat" is legitimately one of the best movie tracks ever (i'll die on this hill). The movie is still a 10/10 even by todays standards. That being said, seeing mentions and "leaks" of this movie like 10 years ago or maybe even longer, there was so much suspense built up for it in my brain, waiting almost half of my life for it to release and *this* is the result... I feel like an arthouse A24 film made by 20-somethings would have been a better release than this, especially looking at the 2nd half.
Hhahahh
The ending was absolutely horrible. Like the whole theater was laughing
The audience was probably all queers.
Me and my wife walked out of this shitty movie.. I want a refund 😂😂😂

Danny called him the golden pot at the end of the rainbow for the next one
😂😂 wtf I can’t wait to see this movie now
*Spoilers below*
There was a couple of things that ruined it for me. How are 7 people who are on night watch at the towns front gates asleep? Im meant to believe all 7 of those guards go to sleep every night when they are meant to be on watch. How has the town even survived this long with tactics like that. Its kind of a theme aswell because the boy falls asleep on watch too when he is in the church. How have these people survived this long!
When Spike takes his mother away from the town, the dad doesn't go after them? He KNEW the son would be taking him to the doctor. He could have caught up. The tide thing could have held him back but the son managed to leave and also sneak back and drop off the baby so i find it hard to believe he would not have left as soon as the tide was low enough to cross. He would have known exactly when the tide was low enough to cross.
The Doctors fire on constantly, and that doesn't attract anyone? Like dangerous survivors. When they get there, they just hang by a fire at night with no security accept the river. But its clear when the alpha breaks through, that it was never safe there. Just boggles me the like of survival instincts any of the characters had at this late stage of the apocolypse.
And what the hell was it with those bats/crows that came with the first alpha when he crossed the land bridge? Dont tell me he could control them.
And then why was there like 4 fat asian zombies? 3 in the forest, when they go for their first hunt, then the one who crawls up to spike as he sleeps in the church with his mum. So wierd
To be fair, I’d imagine they’d get pretty lazy on the watch. They’re probably safe since Infected can’t swim and most wouldn’t bother trying. The tide was also nearing high anyway.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t let the dad leave. They’d know he would chase him, and we can see numerous people at the house when he gets the letter.
To survive 28 years, you could not be getting lazy on watch, they would have a system where someone is always awake. Just because you are "probably" safe doesnt justify having noone awake on watch because anything could happen.
Also they would certainly let the dad leave since they even say your free to go and come back any time but dont expect anyone to go looking for you if you dont return. Furhter more, the idea that spike could walk up to the village, put a baby on the gate, and be gone with enough time for noone to see him is just insane.
how about the doctor making an insane shrine amongst all of this, sure he's covered in that chemical, but come the fuck on.
dont forget about the infected giving birth scene...
@@tylerbacoka4248I don't understand where was Doctor even getting his material and supplies from when he's in the middle of a forest infested by zombies
I didn’t mind the film to be honest, 7/10 for me. One big question I have is why did the Doctor kill off the mother in the furnace so quickly after her diagnosis? She may have had a lot more time to survive… didn’t make sense to me.
That was sooooo weird
All of this could be explained with 28 weeks later. That woman who was a carrier, passed on a very different strain of the virus to her husband. The father of the children in that movie was actually capable of thought when he was infected. Which would explain everything when you think about it.
It sucks because we could of got an interesting film that explains how it "evolved". Instead it feels like they only said it evolved as a cheap way to explain how the virus survived so they could cram out this movie.
💩
That Star Wars jab got me 💀
He mentioned Red Dwarf! I love this guy.

Boys from the Dwarf!
The bullet-time stuff, I loved. But what I loved MORE was Jeremy's impersonation of it LOL
It's so strange that it handles 28 weeks like it didn't happen BUT the film actually references 28 Weeks and straight up shows footage from it?! That intercut medieval film has a scene showing archers firing arrows then flashes scenes of the snipers shooting civilians in weeks. Very odd. And that ending literally left me leaving the cinema thinking I'd been pranked
I don’t get the medieval scenes. It was so off.
It literally acknowledges 28 weeks later they say the infection was driven out of Europe. The second wave of infected from that film obviously evolved somehow and learned to eat and drink water. It's not that hard.
@@zerokool-2058 the director said he was aiming for the idea of backwards evolution to their new circumstances instead of evolving technology which they didnt have

My quick comment review. I really enjoyed what the first part of the movie could’ve been. The second part, the majority of the movie, was laughably awful.
This movie has a strong argument for worst ending of all time. Practically tanks the entire film
Google Jimmy Savile. I'm not exactly sure what it has to do with it, but my British homie says we Yanks wouldn't understand it and I think I might now? I'm not sure but if it's what I think it's going to be very interesting where it goes

That long blonde hair and tracksuit look belonged to a children's TV presenter in the UK. He was very famous and years later exposed as a child abuser in a massive British scandal. In the continuity of 28 Years Later he would have been an idol to Jimmy when he escaped the outbreak in the 90's and never would have been discovered to be an evil guy. It points to how Jimmy has grown up and become the leader of a violent group with no adult concept of the world, his strongest influence being a prevented children's TV host. Basically is scary as fuck. If you meet someone looking like this in the UK today, run!
@@jeremybrunk9576he definitely looked like Jimmy Saville but why?? Saville was a talk show host who turned out to be the most vile pedophile in the U.K. Batshit insane way to end a film
@@jeremybrunk9576technically in this timeline I guess Jimmy Savile hadn’t had his big downfall yet 😂
Danny Boyle is a rare director these days that consistently casts and directs child actors to amazing effect. If you haven’t seen “Millions,” you are missing out. Looking forward to seeing 28 Years Later. 👍
Saw it earlier, it was really good, I think it's better the more you think about it
It's called Millions. However it is a great film. I have seen it 3 times. Gonna watch it a fourth time. Beautiful film.
@@Leprutzthanks for catching it. I meant millions. 👍
First half? Good.. Second half? Very very... Very very very.. Very bad. Pregnant zombies? Very very bad.. Fat zombie eating worms? So dumb. All these years and I still see eye to eye with Jeremy Jahns and his rating of movies.
One thing this movie does that jarred me is that pretty much every time a character does something extremely stupid or irresponsible (and there are a lot examples), they somehow escape any repercussions and don’t end up as zombie food.
Dang the trailers were so dope too. So many good edits came from the trailer.
So because of someone's opinion your not gonna see it, that's really pathetic, imagine letting others dictate what's good and enjoyable to you dang.
@@saylosrelyks8645movie sucks. Writer tried too hard to be different
@@saylosrelyks8645no the movie was garbage
@@saylosrelyks8645 Where did she say she isnt going to see it? you seem mentally sick and need help.
@@saylosrelyks8645 I just saw it. It was really weak and really boring. 28 weeks later is much better.
The movie bored me senseless. It’s like a British walking dead pilot
Everybody is trying to film something on an iPhone. I both love and hate it. On one hand, it shows, yes, the best camera you have is the one you carry with you, and your skills and knowledge are what will help you. On the other hand, it's still a phone. Just because we can doesn't mean we should.
It's a scam
They use specialized lenses and stabilizer setups on top of iphone which themselves cost hundreds of thousands of dollars
So its the same as saying Avatar was made on an android phone....if the android phone was used to issue the render command to nvidia cloud compute
@@goochipoochie I mean yeah, you aren't going to make a beautiful movie with just the phone, but still, the phone being the brain is damn impressive. But I agree with you, they don't tell you exactly what they did to make it look the way it did. It is misleading. Still, I think it's a positive message for people who think they need a cinema camera before they make a short film or any film. Knowledge of video production will get you very far, and that knowledge will make the phone work for you. BUT I don't think we should use a phone as the brain over a pro cine camera for a big budget feature film. It's an unnecessary cut.
Truth
@@goochipoochieit’s not the same at all, it was shot on an iPhone… no one is being scammed mate, stop being dramatic
Maybe they should have used the 28 days later camera? Idk, Jeremy John's review scares me I want this movie to do well.
I don't think the ending ruined the entire movie for me. I think it hit the message it was trying to at least hit, growing up in the apocalypse. Spike's loss even at the end of his difficult journey and a mother's love. Where those guys at the end hadn't really grown up.
We need a prequel trilogy: 28 Seconds Later, 28 Minutes Later and 28 Hours Later
28 movies later.
2800 years later. Brits land on a far distant planet and the advanced civilization is about to get the rage virus. 🦠
@@bl8388 as long as they get Michael Fassbender to be the culprit I'm in.
Then the spinoffs.... 28 feet later, 28 yards later, 28 miles later....all the way up to 28 light years later. And of course, the metric versions dubbed in ye old english for our non American friends....
28 hours later lol
Wow! 'Red Dwarf' drop outta nowhere from an American!
we yanks could watch RD on PBS along with Dr. Who ect.
Red Dwarf is an absolute classic.
That Star Wars cut killed me 😂😂😂
YOU SAID WHAT WE'RE ALL THINKING!
@@alexa5675Iv watched it over so many times 😂
Dawg, they literally show footage from 28 weeks later of the snipers taking out the infected when the outbreak happens. The fact the second outbreak managed to reach mainland Europe is the reason that the outside world has given up on the British Isles. Danny Boyle saying they're not following up on those storylines just means that we will not be seeing the kids from Weeks in the new trilogy.
Finally an honest review. Watched it yesterday and it sucked, great first half then went downhill really fast from there
Finally someone else who thinks the same, when they first went to the mainland that was such a cool adventure but after they got back it fell flat on its face with the story. Even the opening I was hoping would show more of how the outbreak happened but it was rushed and weak.
@@RacxxOnUtubeso should I wait for it to stream or what?
@@miscedezshaw86honestly bro yea I would wait for that, as much as it hurts to say. The first like 1 hour was cool except again I felt like the beginning was really rushed and the ending was so goofy
I’m not sure this review is honest enough.
The first act was quite good, the rest of the film was pathetic. If Boyle wanted to get weird with it, he should have gone WEIRD. Instead, he went boring.
I think after a while of boring, he remembered that he needed to end it on a high, and so it became absurd to the point of ṟet@rded.
I mean that ending. That wasn’t cool, or unique, or interesting. It was juvenile, lazy, uninspired nonsense.
Garbage film, 2/10 at most.
By ‘honest reviews’, do you guys mean ‘opinions which match mine’?
People are certainly divided but I think it is easier to understand why each side feels as they do.
It was not at all the movie I expected or wanted, but I absolutely loved it. It was so cathartic and just beautiful. It was NOT a zombie action film that most want. That sucks.
My wife refused to let me take my son because of the violence and scares, but in the end I was happy she stopped me because i would have been self conscious about completely letting go with emotions to the point where I was sobbing.
That's how I felt about How to Train Your Dragon (2025). But 28 years later, I felt nothing. Everyone is different.
This movie was crap
Crying to this movie is unironically pathetic lol go to a therapist lmfao. Also, youre glad you didnt bring your child because you cried? Not because of the 100 shots of zombies straight hanging dong? Father of the the year right here LOL. "I dont mind if my kid sees bloody naked violent monsters, but they can NOT see daddy cry" YIKES.
Because your pee pee isn't as big?
what were you crying about??? there was like no emotional connection to the characters in my opinion. Maybe a little but for spike but that’s about it. I wish the movie was more like the start of it with some emotional elements put into it.
8:38 yeah you’re right.
93% Critic Score
68% Audience Score
🎯 just got home from the theatre. Calling this movie inconsistent is an understatement.
I give 10% just for the first 20 minutes the rest was trash and fekt too fast
28 weeks is canon. At the beginning of the movie it says that europe pushed the infection back to Britain and quarantined it.
5:18 SAVAGE!!!!!
F-ing awesome!!!
But necessary! 😂😂😂😂 He was thinking it. We were thinking it. He said it 😅😅😅
That was a solid meme moment 😂
Based on reviews that I've seen including Jeremy's it appears you really don't need to watch or rewatch the previous films in order to follow 28 Years eapecially since their starting a new triology which I'm glad that's the case
You don’t need to
It retcons the first two films (infected starving, outbreak in Paris), so it definitely fells like a spiritual successor in the way Army of the Dead was to Dawn of the Dead
@@Blackarachnia1996no it's not? 1) infected are are evolved 2) the paris outbreak was contained by NATO
@Blackarachnia1996 how is it a retcon? If they did starve to death and not evolve why would this movie exist unless it's Dawn of the Dead the world getting back to normal? I don't think it's a retcon I think it's evolution
The infected did evolve, the virus did
Should be called 28 inches later amirite 😂
I saw the movie today and 2/3 of the way thru, all I could think was, "What is the point of this film?" More than 14 years to write this sequel script and this is the best they could come up with? Spike and his dad went out for one day and were almost killed by the infected. He goes out with his mom and they go thru the countryside hardly meeting any of them? And then the doctor shows up just in time to save them from the Alpha? And, from the 2nd film, I thot the concept was that after 28 weeks, the infected have starved to death. How did any of them last 28 years?
The infected have been eating the millions of deer and animals available to them. So i wouldn't say starvation is a concern anymore.
@@natshenkinthe thing is, is that they were starving at the end of 28 Days Later .. why weren't they just eating animals in that movie??
waited almost 28 years for this.
Only to be disappointed most people say the beginning was mid at best the rest was garbage they should’ve kept to the original theme from days/months movies if this ip was its own thing it would’ve bin better just to different
@@OyyyVeyyy-h8tyou saying to be disappointed yet you haven’t even seen it. Stop going based off other dudes opinions
@@LorenzoC2314what are you talking about you literally dont know me if i watched it or not and the funniest thing is you’re on a video about another person’s opinion get MOGGED
@@OyyyVeyyy-h8tdifference is I’m not letting his opinion dictate anything about the movie. You on the other hand are saying “most people say the beginning was mid” so clearly you going straight based off other people’s opinion and acting as if you’ve seen it. But good try
@@LorenzoC2314MOG MOGGED MOG
Good review, I personally was blown away with it! The editing I thought was so cool and unique
Unique taste, I must say
Fresh out of the theatre (no spoilers) peak zombie action/suspense in the first hour, but that doesn’t take away from how heartfelt the second half is, I could always use more infected scenes but the films restraint made it a cut above others. Having watched 28 days later before the showing, but not growing up with the movie, I would say I loved Years so much more, though dialogue in Days is fantastic and it’s classic status can’t be denied. The ending doesn’t jump the shark in my mind, though the tonal shift halfway through the movie worked for me personally as a big fan of garland films
Thank you. Thank you so much. Wading through this comments section was making me feel despondent and frustrated. I loved the film as well, and felt like it was reaching for something really special and landed it. It seems though that most people just wanted a flat and derivative gorefest, since they think that that's what made 28 Days Later special, apparently. Thank you for being a breath of fresh air.
Understandable. But personally, I thought the camera angles and editing choices you mentioned, elevated the movie even more. There were defiantly aspects that were lacking, like some of the plot choices, but overall, I was incredibly impressed with the level of creativity and ability to produced a "zombie" movie that is a shift from the usual zombie movies, and the usual cookie cutter plotlines. Whereas, with this movie, I didn't know what to expect from the next scene. I also thought the B-roll footage added so much. more to the tense and creepy aspect of the movie. It felt like a nod to the old British folk horror movies from the 70s and 80s.
4:00 - The first minute of the movie confirms 28 Weeks Later happened.
And Alex Garland has confirmed that they nuked France and in the Rageleaks website they mention that they pushed the infection all the way back to Britain
Correct, I saw a review saying the same “28 weeks later ending isn’t canon anymore” just to see that’s wrong in the first minute of the film lol
I will say, even if this movie has flaws, the first trailer is just amazing, the haunting read of Rudyard Kipling's poem "Boots" over images of a war, not a war among man but a war for survival, gave me goosebumps
When the best thing one has to say about a movie is the trailer....
I loved the first 30 minutes of the movie. The idea of an isolated community (and I think even before the apocalypse, that part of the countryside was a niche community that has specialized in archery) surviving that long, having experienced hunters guide the young when they come of age through a hunt. They could've done so much more with the idea of GB being isolated from the rest of the world, NATO soldiers on patrol getting stranded on the island, the undead evolving to become alphas, the concept of alphas breeding with other undead and the possibility of the infected offspring being the next stage of evolution for the undead. Its just ashame the ending of the movie made it seem like a horror comedy
Hated that poem scene it was a super annoying voice
Overall there were some really awesome parts.
However, I feel some of the editing choices were strange. The random jump cuts and spliced scenes didn't fit. Then the ending felt like it was from another movie with the same actor.
One thing I would like to say... the acting was pretty amazing.
Did you feel like this movie was raw or uncut? 😂
The opening scroll of the film explains that the infection was pushed back from continental Europe - the didn't take 28 weeks out of canon, just didn't go with that plot, and summarised that they succesfully pushed the infected out of France and elsewhere. Also felt the bullet time was to highlight if the arrow hit a head, or heart.
