If you are looking for 1) a straight zombie movie or you are comparing this film to 2) Shaun of the Dead, you might be disappointed. Otherwise, you’ll probably appreciate it because the film is somewhere between those two ideas.

The idea of crossing a zombie movie with a romantic comedy was a tricky order, but it seemed to come off.

The film does have its slow bits, but overall, not a waste of time. I’ve definitely seen much, much worse. In fact, this one goes on my top 10 of zombie movies.

I really liked this movie back when it was called “Shaun of the Dead”.

Zombieland tries its best at the rom-com-horror hybrid (non)genre but the jokes fall flat and the rest, well, if you’ve screened a zombie – don’t use the zed word! – flick in the last decade you’ll recognise bits and pieces in this one. Juno’s baby daddy calls forth the spirit of the cheetah, wait wrong one, but yes he does run quite a bit in Z-land. Can Bill Murray save the day? Good question, that. Stay away from the theatres and snag this one when it makes the rounds in the resale bins.
