This movie has all the elements of a good zombie movie. Nothing more/Nothing less; making it Average. It is a must-see for zombie movie fans. Compared to the original, the effects and shock value of kills is better; but the heart of the first one is lacking in the second.

This remake is a lot gorier and faster-paced than the Romero classic, but it's missing the social commentary and artistry of the original. Zack Snyder stylizes his films, but gets clumsy when it comes to adding thematic elements to his films and this is no exception.

Action: 3 / 3, Comedy: 2 / 2, Good vs Evil: 1 / 1, Love/Sex: 1 / 1, Special Effects: 0.5 / 1, Plot: 0 / 1, Music: 1 / 1 = 8.5 / 10 or 85%. Remakes are not usually this high caliber, but the ride is fun as well as scary. It presents the zombie elements of 28 Days Later to a higher level of comedy.

One of the best horror re-makes ever. Not the classic of Romero's, but still an awesome zombie movie. Fast, fun and gory.

Definitely not the best movie of all time. One that I would rather have not watched - too much gore for me....but, the scare meter was definitely great on this one... I am not much for blood, guts, and gore -- but, overall -- scary to the max!!

While not a terrible remake, it has lost most of the spunk from the original. The premise remains the same, though, as there are some really freaky parts. Honestly, it is a remake that should never have been remade.

Sure, it throws out the satire that made the original dawn so fun - but this remake is still pretty good. It could have lost a few more character and be more focused, but overall it was good. I especially like the opening 15 minutes.
