Zombieland
August 20, 2010
Welcome to Zombieland.
You want a crazy fun zombie movie? You got it. "Zombieland" may not be a masterpiece, but for what it is, it's a lot of fun.Columbus (Jessie Eisenburg) is a survivor of the apocalypse where the dead roam the land of the living and look for a human happy meal.H has his own list of rules to survive Zombieland.Such examples are Cardio, Double Tap, Beware of Bathrooms, and even Fasten your seat belts.Wasn't that already a rule if you want to live? Oh well.
Columbus is walking on the road when he suddenly notices a caddy driving straight towards him.A man steps out with snake skin boots and some dark shades, pulls a gun on Columbus,
and after a 30 second silence, Columbus tells him he needs a ride.This man is Tallahassee, a real bad-ass who has only one weakness: a taste for Twinkies.How bad is his weakness? Read this line he says: "Wheres the f***ing Twinkies?!". Talk about the case of the munchies.It's this ludicrous plot device and the zombie attacks that makes "Zombieland" a real pleasure to watch.The movie lasts for 82 minutes and I wasn't bored by any second of it.Add in a great cameo by a certain somebody and "Zombieland" makes for one of the most fun experiences you'll ever come across in a zombie movie.
Grade: B+
