As viscerally compelling as smash-mouth filmmaking gets.

Those rigorously moral and humanistic underpinnings give 28 Weeks Later a kind of power that 100 Saws and Texas Chainsaw Massacre remakes could never achieve.

One of the greatest zombie movies ever made. I feel like 28 days later may have been slightly better, but the opening scene of this movie is easily the greatest moment in the two combined. If you like zombies you owe it to yourself to see this movie.

Perfect correlation of horror and drama. Sound by J. Murphy, play by C. Murphy and own by Boyle on high quality level. I have my top movie list and this movie of course is in that top-list.
One of best horrors of all times.

The ending is a set-up for yet another sequel: Can "28 Months Later" be very far away?
80
Bigger action, more amazing deserted (and devastated) London sequences and biting contemporary relevance, if a touch less heart than the original.

t's an exciting, well-directed thriller that, while providing more than enough action and gore to satisfy genre fans, also offers the political commentary that has characterized zombie movies going back at least as far as "Night of the Living Dead."
67
The mayhem is presented sparingly enough to be suspenseful, some of the sequences are genuinely terrifying and, compared with Hollywood's last zombie movie, the Robert Rodriguez half of "Grindhouse," it's a masterpiece.

"28 Days Later," while not terribly original, was suspenseful and involving. 28 Weeks Later is neither. The characters aren't as sympathetic or interesting.

Une suite non dénuée d’intérêt grâce notamment à un scénar certes nanaresque mais bien construit dans l’ensemble. Le rythme ne faiblit pas et la distribution reste bien agréable à part le bras cassé Perrineau et le monolithique Elba bien sûr. Carlyle réserve quelques surprises, Byrne est bien jolie et compétente alors que celle qui a un nom qui peut faire sourire (Imogène Prout) se débrouille très bien (et est bien jolie elle aussi !).La musique de John Murphy s’avère efficace et tout devrait donc rouler avec allégresse dans ce Londres très surveillé qui connaît une rechute zombie particulièrement brutale… C’est que -hélas- malgré une action qui tache assez souvent (splatch)- l’action elle-même ou du moins dès qu’il y en a, l’action -et vous allez voir où je veux en venir- l’action, disais-je, c’est promis, je vous en parle au prochain paragraphe !L’action donc, est très mal filmée et la caméra épileptique bouge dans tous les sens ! ça en devient totalement risible -et lamentable… et navrant également ! quel gâchis, car par ailleurs, c’est bien mis en scène quand la caméra ne fait pas de la merde. Heureusement que le montage reste à peu près correct, enfin, je crois. Mais malgré ce défaut tout à fait désagréable, le film reste sensiblement meilleur que « 28 Jours plus **** » !

Better than the first, but still far from being a good film. The dialogue is dreadful and the kids are insufferable — I’ve never wished for kids to die in a movie this much! The pacing is terrible, and the film has aged terribly. Even back in 2007, it must have already looked cheap.

O yıllar da izlesem belki severdim ama günümüz için vakit kaybı. Daha iyi yapımlar var.
