28 Weeks Later: A Sequel Worth Your Time
May 11, 2007
by Alex Billington
This isn't my own full review (yet), but it's an emphasis to all of you to go see this movie this weekend! I'll be straight-forward, I loved this movie and I claim it's better than 28 Days Later. I know that's rare, it's almost like another Terminator 2, but I thoroughly loved 28 Weeks Later as both a zombie, horror movie as well as an action, drama movie. All too often nowadays sequels (like this) are lumped into the pre-determined category of a terrible, cheesy waste of money. Although many will have their own opinion afterwards, this is one of those you shouldn't overlook and assume it's as bad as most sequels, because it definitely is not.
If you want to read some more reviews, head over to Rotten Tomatoes, where it's currently got a fresh 70% rating! It also has an 8.1/10 on IMDb! Jaq here at FirstShowing.net also reviewed it and gave it a 7/10.

I personally loved this. Not as much as 28 Days Later, but nonetheless, it was still great. A worthy sequel. Will there be any poster contest for this one?

I'll be seeing it in a couple of days, and seeing good things here just adds to an already long list of compliments, so I'm anticipating some decent entertainment!

I thought it was a fantastic movie! Some minor gripes, but I'll hold off because I don't want to spoil it for anyone. However, overall, a great movie! I actually liked it a bit more than the original
