The director/producer team that created Trainspotting turn their dynamic cinematic imaginations to the classic science fiction scenario of the last people on Earth. Jim (Cillian Murphy) wakes up from a coma to find London deserted--until he runs into a mob of crazed plague victims. He gradually finds other still-human survivors (including Naomie Harris), with whom he heads off across the abandoned countryside to find the source of a radio broadcast that promises salvation. 28 Days Later is basically an updated version of The Omega Man and other post-apocalyptic visions; but while the movie may lack originality, it makes up for it in vivid details and creepy paranoid atmosphere. 28 Days Later's portrait of how people behave in extreme circumstances--written by novelist Alex Garland (The Beach)--will haunt you afterward. Also featuring Brendan Gleeson (The General, Gangs of New York) and Christopher Eccleston (Shallow Grave, The Others). --Bret Fetzer
From The New Yorker
Another helpful development for the British Tourist Board. Danny Boyle's horror film, alternately savage and glum, shows London-and, by implication, most of England-destroyed by a fast-acting plague. Borne in the blood, it passes from one Brit to another with a single bite; soon, the capital is empty save for marauding zombies, leaving the unchewed-such as Jim (Cillian Murphy) and Selena (Naomie Harris)-to drift around, shop without paying, and never quite have sex. Any resemblance to normal teen-age behavior is entirely coincidental. Brendan Gleeson, much the best and cheeriest thing in the movie, plays a taxi-driver who helps them to leave town; from here on, Boyle and his screenwriter, Alex Garland, run out of gas. The picture is twitchy and annoying, flecked with blood and half-digested ideas, and too much is left unexplained. As a scheme for solving central London's traffic problem, though, it is unlikely to be surpassed. -Anthony Lane

28 Days Later
First off this film was NOT A ZOMBIE FILM. It was a film about an infection that made the carrier turn into a homicidal bezerker. They did not eat their victims they just tried to infect them by bleeding on them. Nothing zombie about that. The film was passable for what it was, a cutesy little horror film. I will forever be haunted by that idiot main caracter walking through the deserted streets yelling hello. I watched this saying to myself please kill him. I have never wanted the main character of a film to be killed faster than this guy. I just didn't like this poor attampt at horror movie making. P.S. 28 weeks later was even lamer than this film.
blu-ray picture quality horrible
wow. i love this movie, BUT i rented (glad i did) this movie from netflix on blu ray. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THE BLU-RAY VERSION OF THIS MOVIE.
there is probably a reason it only costs $20 on blu-ray. think about it. need i say more?
A better Zombie movie
This is probably a better zombie movie that is out there, because in the beginning it tells you how the virus was started.
