Reviews for 28 Weeks Later
Fresnadillo's film is an undeniable triumph and one that horror fans will love for decades to come.

The infected just seem to bite, spit blood, scream and repeat a little too much.

Una digna segunda parte que mantiene el nivel de la original, de 2002, gracias a su ritmo inquietante, su nerviosa banda sonora y su escenario cuasi apocalíptico.
09/27/07
If a heart-palpitating, seat-jittering gore fest happily gets your blood boiling, you'll indeed seethe infinitely more this time around.
09/21/07
It's an exciting, well-directed thriller that, while providing more than enough action and gore to satisfy genre fans, also offers the political commentary that has characterized zombie movies.

Top Critic This sequel takes its predecessor's derivative, remorseless premise and deepens it a bit, though I can't be alone in wondering why this, of all things, should be a franchise.
07/23/07
Besides exhilarating, terrifying action, what 28 Weeks Later achieves best is a mood of terror, vigilant fear, and high-alert tummy flutters. Worth every penny.

S'alimentant d'une mise en situation beaucoup plus large et complexe,28 Weeks Later est la suite dont avait besoin cette nouvelle franchise pour être prise un peu plus sérieux
07/03/07
Suggests the kind of fable as might be shared from generation to generation, albeit in its own nerve-racking, nihilistic way of directing these metaphors into our psyche.
07/03/07
a perfect blend of well-drawn characters, political allegory, grand guignol, flesh-crawling tension and very fast-moving zombies.
07/02/07
"Weeks" abandons any trace of hope it has in characters prevailing for the better. It is cynical, nihilistic and unflinching.
07/01/07
works not just because of its visual and thematic resonance with current global traumas, but because it grips you on an emotional level
06/30/07
Against all odds, Weeks proves to be a jarring and effective follow-up to its equally-shocking predecessor.
06/30/07
It’s a worthy follow-up, and I’ll surely be waiting for 28 Months Later.
06/30/07
Thanks to its direction, cast and political subtext, 28 Weeks Later is a horror sequel that's actually worth seeing and improves upon (in some areas) its predecessor.
