Zomebieland (2009)


Recommended Posts

I just got back from seeing Zombieland in theaters and I must say this was a very very funny movie! Woody Harrelson plays an excellent role in this movie, which makes it worth seeing.

The story behind the movie is everybody in the world is dead, with the exception of a few survivors. The remaining survivors are off to find a safe haven from the killer zombies. The group of people are headed to a theme park, said to be zombie free, finding various adventures along the way, stopping at stores for supplies and twinkies - Woody's favourite snack - before each of them are turned into zombies themselves.

I fairly enjoyed the movie, as did the audience. I wasn't expecting the movie to be a comedy, but that is what it basically is, aside from the killer zombies. I definitely recommend going to see this film, very funny movie!

9/10 (Y)(Y)

I saw it this afternoon and really enjoyed it. There were some great scenes too and some funny quotes: I'm taking the Cleveland Browns to the Super Bowl That one took me a sec to get hehe. Oh and can't forget the Bill Murray cameo .

As soon as I saw the previews for this movie it was automatically put on my must watch list. At least my thoughts were confirmed that this wasn't going to be a total stinker like most movies are today. :D

5/5!

This movie was AWESOME!

One of the first time, if not the first, that I see the public applauding at the end of a movie... O_O

Shaun of the Dead was good, but ZombieLand beat it ten time.

I was actually a little disappointed in the film. It was still good, but nowhere near as funny as I had thought it was going to be. It had hilarious moments though.

3 out of 5

Perhaps it may simply be my community, but clapping at the end of movies in the theatre seems to occur with shocking regularity for the films that I see. I would estimate it at likely every three or four that a significant proportion choose to clap. Not that I agree; most do not deserve such praise.

Back on the current movie, however, I was pleasantly surprised. Easily, I would rate it with four out of five stars, and recommend it as a candidate for best movie of the year. So far, I believe that it would be my favourite this year.

Glad to see all these good reviews, and hearing some friends talk about it quite highly as well. I am going to see it soon mainly because of the good reviews and because parts of the movie were shot here, near my university, and some of played soccer with Woody.

This movie was shot where I used to live so it will be cool to see some of the locations of the area since I have not lived there in almost 8 years :D

Ahaha, same thing here!

My friends and I didn't think much of this movie from the trailers, but as it turned out - this movie was funny and fun.

(Also, we couldn't help but think how awesome some of these scenes would have made as L4D campaigns/levels)

I think that was the general reaction everywhere when Bill murray was shot. The movie was definitely funny... and btw little off key side note I went to high school with the kid who played cleveland.

I lived in Valdosta, the theme park in the movie is called Wild Adventures and I have been there numerous times. The movie was great and the Bill Murry cameo was awesome :D I would def go see it again :) 5/5 On another note, wish I still lived there would have loved being a zombie :p

This movie was awesome! It wasn't what I expected at all. Some parts were just so damn hilarious, it had me dying of laughter in my seat.

This was one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time... maybe ever, to be honest. And it's not like "Superbad" funny where you'd only want to watch it with friends, but it's a good (somewhat adult) family comedy.

Great acting, great comedy, great effects... got it all. The Bill Murray cameo was the best cameo, ever. No contest in my mind.

4.5/5

OMG THIS MOVIE WAS AWESOME . I saw it last night, I couldnt stop laughing the whole time, I give this movie a 95% approval rating. The zombies in a way reminded me of the L4D zombies. Plus the bigger sister was pretty cute :D

Isn't that pretty much the storyline of every zombie movie? lol!!

I'm lookin forward to seeing this movie though, previews look pretty good, and Woody is a great actor.
