Was gonna see it with my brother but he thought I was going to his this week instead of next, so he's saying he'd rather go alone

Saw it last night, Very VERY good. IT's not exactly the same style as shaun of the dead, but it's damned close :D
Highly reccomended,

Just seen this today. It starts off kind of slow but its genuinly funny and the last half hour is a blast.

Excellent film, like Shaun of the Dead it took a while to get going (with good reason) but when it did it was hilarious. Some very cool touches like having Shaun of the Dead in the bargain bin, and having the neighbour watch called NWA.

Agree with Pooperscooper, the first half of the film is very witty, moves along at a reasonable pace, with plenty of time spent on the characters, the last half hour is complete mayhem.

I loved the references to Point Break - probably my favourite action movie of the 90's.

I enjoyed it a lot, especially some of the little in jokes from SOTD.

Most excellent. Lovely gory touches.

Two thumbs up.

twas exceptionally good. I love how they managed to get one of the most pointless and menial lines ever ("Want anything from the shop?" "Cornetto") into two films now. Could this be a trademark line for them then? Like the worst catchphrase ever.

I have to say, I was worried that the film wouldn't live up to the hype after Sean of the Dead but it really is as good. Bit of a slow burner but once you get into it, it is just as good as Sean or Spaced whilst still being different enough to stand out.

Saw it earlier. Oh dear.

Some passable gags, but really just a a half hour idea stretched to two hours. It wasn't long before I wished I was watching any of the films they kept lazily referencing instead of this. At least the likes of Bad Boys 2 (a cracker, btw) and Point Break have genuine ambition, something this film desperately needed, and are of course much better directed.

Go and make a proper film, boys, and not more of this dated, complacent, audience flattering, post-modern rubbish.

3/10

Better than SOTD :yes:

Just got back from watching it. I laughed so hard. I preferred it to SOTD in that although it was a bit of a slow start when it picked up it was awesome. I felt SOTD started really well but after all the 'ahhh zombie!' parts, wasn't as good.

Nothing like a bit of girl on girl

:haha: That part made me choke on my popcorn. and the whole oww it really hurts!

Was my brothers second time watching it. He loved it as much as the first

9/10

Saw it loved it...don't expect to be mentally challenged or made to think deep and meaningful if you go and watch this movie...just go to be totally entertained by as much nonsense as you can handle!

It's all madness and it's brilliant!

It was utter nonsense from start to finish - I loved it....I even managed to sleep for 30 minutes during the shooting scenes ( I was sooooo tired)
After a long working week, it was the thing to see on a Friday night....might go and see it again when I want another laugh.

Funniest film I have seen in a long long time

This is the best film ever. Well, this year anyway I furking loved it.
And when I saw it they trailered a new film with Peggy in it too, which looked quite good, 'run, fat boy, run.', dunno much about it, but it looked alright as I said.
