Zombieland

Plot: A shy kid trying to get to his family in Ohio during a zombie invasion runs into a Twinkie loving tough guy and two sisters who want to get to an amusement park.

Review: Zombieland has a good mix of humour and scares. The zombies are fast paced, and ruthless killers. Attacking anything that gets in their way. Jesse Eisenberg plays a shy kid who is a bit of a loner. He is in his apartment one night when his neighbour (Amber Heard) is knocking at his door scared out of her mind. He lets her in, then she turns into a zombie and he's forced to get out of his apartment. Soon, he runs into tough guy Tallahasee (Woody Harrelson) who hates zombies and two girls (Emma Stone, Abigail Breslin) who are trying to get to an amusement park. Together they work to get to the park and even run into Bill Murray along the way in probably the best cameo ever by an actor.

 

Zombieland is great because it is basically a guideline for how to survive a zombie invasion with Jesse Eisenberg narrating the lists of rules throughout the movie. Everyone did a great job in this movie. Woody was surprisingly bad ass as Tallahassee and thrived in his role. Emma Stone was as hot as ever as Wichita and Abigail Breslin did a decent job. Zombieland is a fun zombie movie and definitely worth checking out!
