It’s 93 minutes long and classified as a Mystery, Sci-Fi, Thriller.
Max: I think it’s more like a Mind f*&^%#.
Noah: Steady on Max, this is a family site. But yes, it definitely leaves you in a state of mass confusion at the end. Which I think makes this a worthy film as I like movies that keep you thinking – “What just happened….” at the end.
Max: Well that’s fine for some but I found the whole thing to be rather stupid… I mean how can a guy…
Noah: Hold up Max, don’t go giving away too much here…
Max: Well how can I review the stupid thing if I can’t say too much…
Noah: Well we can say a few things… Just checking up on IMDB

To think that this was inspired by “Shaun of the Dead” which was an absolutely funny 9.5/10 movie, makes you wonder. Which bits of “Shaun of the Dead” did the writers actually watch? Or understand?

Let’s see – “Shaun of the Dead” had zombies…. Zombieland had zombies – Ahh now I see the inspiration! Cause that’s about all the inspiration that it takes from it.

Surprisingly there is a lot to be said about ZombieLand. I could even say a few nice things about it. But I don’t want to upset the writers and fans too much.

Personally, I’d give Zombieland 1/10 for entertainment and 9/10 for giving me hope that anyone can write a movie and make a few million riding on a proven concept.
That concept being, run around , trashing whatever you can find and shoot people, who have been dead but have since decided to get up again with the hope that those that aint dead become dinner.. Oh that last part only applies to ZombieLand, so that was disappointing – maybe there’ll be a part II.

Z-Land did just that – Gave one the strong urge to go off to Z-Land and dream of more entertaining things…
