Zombieland (2009)

After the success of Shaun of the dead it is not surprising someone else decided to have go at a zombie comedy and it is also not surprising that there are going to be comparisons. There is not really a lot to say about Zombieland really, obviously it is not as good as Shaun but it is not bad either. Some of the sequences are really good, Columbus is a decent protagonist and Woody Harrelson provides an above average side kick.

The best part of the film is clearly the cameo in the second half which is hard to say much about without spoiling it really but suffice to say when a cameo is the best part of the film you have to wonder if the rest is lacking a little in substance. There are other laughs to be had along the way but the film lacks the depth of Shaun and while I do think that it is a 4/5 it is on the lower end of 4s.
