I like 28 weeks way better. The first film, though it is enjoyable, is a little too surreal for my taste. I think the second film has a gritty realism and provocative human element that leaves you talking. The only thing I would have changed in the second film would be to have more UK soldiers and other nationals in the "nato-led" force. I would kept the same actors just have them do their real accents instead of american onesim looking at you Idris Elba.
28 weeks is one of my favorite zombie movies next to Snyder's Dawn of the Dead. -

There was so so much wrong with Weeks its amazing. Script was not even half baked. Terrible. That said the action scenes were still amazing, and the opening sequence was mind-blowing. Shame everything else sucked.

Danny Boyle was producer or executive producer so he'd want to protect his investment by speaking well of it. However, I doubt he'd ever write and direct anything so half thought through as this himself.

Can't argue with thatHowever, The writing on this film was on par for it's genre and just as good as 28 days so I can't quite understand the hostility towards it. Are you just a sequel hater? Some people are.
Marion Cotillard, Keira Knightley and Alizee are the most beautiful women on Earth. -

Days is a good movie with a deeper payoff but Weeks is my favorite, it is just more watchable and involving, has a faster pace and uncompromisingly dark twists, which a good horror movie should have. The cinematography is crisp. The only thing I didn't like was how it ended. It just sort of has nowhere left to go and tapers off. But it's a fun ride, plus no lame mansion.

I thought WEEKS was better than DAYS - first time I saw it . I do think the sequel is let down by the fact that the plot runs out after the reinfection happens . At least with DAYS the plot still develops in the final third even though it lacks internal logic

Because after the father flees the house, this movie gets TERRIBLY predictable. I was during the whole movie like:
- Oh, kids. Now we know who will screw it all.
- "remember that nobody is allowed to cross the river".
- Oh they will dumbly cross the river and somehow get everybody else infected, while surviving themselves because, ya' know, they are kids.
- "but we want to see momy!"
- Geez now that idiot will go there and get himself bitten, release her or something.
- "I love you"
- Here it comes.
And so, and so on.

I have always liked this more than 28 Days. I am real surprised it hasn't ended up on more top ten lists or last decace.
