I thought 28 Days Later was quite good. It was a smart, well-made, intelligent rehash of the zombie flick formula and it was British to boot. Hurrah!
So I had high hopes for the sequel, 28 Weeks Later, and it's OK. It's pretty much a retread of its predessor with new bits about US imperialism, foreign policy and Iraq analogies thrown in for good measure.
Robert Carlyle's a bit under-used but elfin beauty and film newcomer Imogen Poots is very watchable. And France gets infected with the rage virus in the closing credits.
So that's probably a happy ending...
