28 Weeks Later

Plot: Set 28 weeks after the original outbreak of the Rage Virus, London is ready to be repopulated thinking that things were safe. They were wrong.

Review: The opening 20 minutes of 28 Weeks Later is very scary. It starts off with Don (Robert Carlyle) and his wife hiding out in a cottage with a group of survivors. They don't go outside and ration whatever food they have. All is well until they let a boy in who was chased by the infected. Then one by one they quickly turn and Don escapes. Weeks later he is working in London which is being repopulated and the Rage Virus seems to be gone. When his kids arrive, they sneak out and go into the restricted zone where they find their mother who was supposedly dead. But turns out she is infected and spreads the virus all over again.

 

The cast is great with Robert Carlyle as Don, playing a tough part for a man who left his wife to certain death. He played a good zombie to. Jeremy Renner (Bourne Legacy) was awesome as Doyle and Idris Elba (Pacific Rim) played a small role to. 28 Weeks Later is an action packed zombie thriller and its one of the top zombie movies out there!
