28 Days Later (2002)
1/10
Overhype British Nonsense
6 July 2003
I won't bore you with all the illogical happenings of this film, since most people here (at least the smart ones) have already mentioned it. What must be said, and I can't stress this enough, is how UNORIGINAL this tripe is.

But I don't blame Garland and Boyle. If I was surrounded by a world full of idiots who don't remember movies like THE OMEGA MAN and DAY OF THE DEAD, then i would steal both of those movies too and join them up into one movie. And oh yeah, throw in DAWN OF THE DEAD along the way.

To whit:

28 DAYS LATER steals from THE OMEGA MAN in its first 40 minutes....the 40 minute to the hour mark is stolen directly from DAWN OF THE DEAD......leaving the final hour to steal completely from DAY OF THE DEAD.

All I can say is, Boyle and Garland better get themselves a good lawyer, because a TRUE genius name George Romero is probably getting his lawyers right now for a lawsuit.
