Zombieland

Zombieland was so funny. Very original as far as zombie movies go. They created their own lingo and world and in doing so created indeering, interesting characters that were fun for the audience. And the Bill Murry camio! Priceless, hillarious, my dad would have loved that. It really is so hard to take a specific genre like zombie thrillers, or even zombie comedy, and create something fun and original, and it wasn't as good as Shaun of the Dead, but it still had good content. There was some running and chasing, but it wasn't the whole movie, and they used Columbus's "lists" to keep a nice tie on certain things, which added to the humor and the experience of the whole movie. Now I don't know much about Woody Harrelson as an actor other than he's not high on my list, but he was great in No Country for Old Men and I know his niche is the-good-ole-counrty-boy, but it was great for this movie, as was Jesse Eisenberg's sweethearted nerd. Again, a bit over used, but still made a nice addition to the cast. Although it had it's tender moments, Zombieland really stuck close to the basic zombie's invade, people survive plot. But after saying that, I would have been really disappointed if someone important had died. And there was a fun subplot of twinkies. Cute. And the whole, learning to appreciate the small things, blow off steam, that was very fun and original.Not to mention, the special effects were fantastic! Well, ok, sometimes you could tell the actors weren't actually shooting the guns, but let's not be picky, I'd rather notice something like that than see an unbelievable head explosion. Not to mention the creepy way the Zombie's walked, like cats almost, I like that alot. The first blond girl zombie was very impressive. I liked it, I'd very much watch it again, I love zombie movies.
