2. Summary

   Really Great 4.5

   Shockingly enough, a great sequel to my favorite not-zombie movie. This one definitely goes bigger, dealing with the early stages of Britain’s repopulation after the Rage virus is supposedly decimated, although no chances are taken and American soldi…(read more)ers man every corner. The plot comes down to one family that brings the Rage back in vogue, but also may hold the key to curing it. The action is intense throughout, but the special effects are uneven. The firebombing looked great, as did a certain helicopter sequence that is now my favorite zombie scene ever, but certain smoke and gas effects were really lame. Altogether though, it’s a really great movie, and a worthy successor to the original. Hopefully months and years are on the horizon…

4. Acting

   Very Good 3.5

   The non-zombies are nothing special, really, but the zombie actors all do a really good job of draining the humanity from these creatures.
