Zombieland
Director: Ruben Fleisher
Writer: Rhett Reese & Paul Wernick
2009
If you like zombie films then you’ll love Zombieland. If you don’t like zombie films than you’ll love Zombieland. This film appeals to a wide range of viewers aka smart viewers with great taste in films, and if you don’t like this film there is clearly something wrong with you. Zombieland is ridiculously funny, entertaining, action packed and chockful of crazy zombies. Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg are the perfect pair of polar opposites, with Harrelson being the cool, tough guy and Eisenberg the neurotic antisocial guy with helpful hints on how to survive a zombie outbreak. There isn’t much you need to know about the plot, just that the zombie virus spread quickly and started with a hamburger (take that meat eaters!). Unlike most zombie films, this one does not take itself or the genre seriously – it has fun with the genre and that makes watching it very enjoyable. Get your hands on Zombieland, you won’t be disappointed. Just be sure to bring along a pen and paper to write down the survival tips cleverly edited into the film, because you can never be over-prepared.
P.s Keep an eye out for the coolest cameo ever!
