28 Weeks Later, a review by JimmyTitle : 28 Weeks Later (2007) Overview The terror and devastation unleashed in '28 Days Later' picks up six months after the Rage virus has decimated London in this heart-stopping horror sequel that "surpasses the original" ('Dallas Morning News'). With order restored and the war against the infection won, the U.S. Army steps in to help repatriate Mainland Britain. But one of the returning refugees carries a terrible secret that threatens to reignite the deadly explosion of bloodlust, carnage and chaos. My Impression Sadly I'm not like Pete and when I watch a sequel I can't leave aside the precedent part. As a sequel this movie is a big deception... The movie start well and this is sad that the director had decided to not follow the story of the survivor. In place of this he had decided to make an ode to the US army and its greatness , sure the others european countries can't intervene since they are a bunch of wimpy non coalition members (I'm sarcastic here). Honestly this movie is not a sequel at all, this is just a bad war movie... The script is weak, we don't care about the kids and why were we, since they are no development or backstory... Seriously don't tell me that the chopper stunt isn't stupid and impossible to do... No suspense, it's like the director had thrown everything that works in the first film in the garbage and a completly different movie (better known as the Nightmare on Elm Street syndrome). Bad as a sequel and bad as a stand alone movie...

Extras: Deleted Scenes Featurettes Interviews Movie Showcase Scene Access Screen Tests Trailers My Thoughts: A well executed sci-fi action movie. I enjoyed it. And a nice satire of the American militarism. I was surprised by Denise Richards. She was more tolerable than usual. And we see the beginning of Dr. Horrible In some scenes I really thought that this shows an evil mastermind at work.Rating: (From Tom's Random Reviews on October 31st, 2009) Birthday Marathon, a review by addicted2dvdBuffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 5 Blood Ties The Scooby Gang discusses plans for Buffy's birthday and dealing with Glory. Giles reveals that Glory is the god of a demon dimension and in order to stay in human form, she needs to suck energy from humans, leaving them insane. The gang starts asking questions about The Key and Buffy finally breaks down and tells them the truth about Dawn. My Thoughts: A good episode. This season with Glory is a good season... but not what I would call a favorite. I liked how Michelle Trachtenberg portrayed Dawn in this episode... where she finds out the truth about herself. And even though I didn't care as much for this season as I did some of them... I must admit all the fights with Glory (including the one in this episode) were always good. My Rating: Out of a Possible 5 (From Birthday Marathon on May 27th, 2009) |
