Reviews for Zombieland
Zombieland does well enough in its early minutes, then picks up a little unexpected speed when Columbus meets another "noncannibal survivor" (played by a perfect Woody Harrelson).
11/19/09
Director Ruben Fleischer eventually ignores the need to tie things up neatly in favor of what we came to Zombieland for, creative ways to kill zombies.
11/09/09
Zombieland is, in essence, Shaun's clumsy, goofy but fun-as-hell American cousin.
11/07/09
Harrelson and co-star Emma Stone do a good job of embodying comedically hardened B-movie action heroes.
11/04/09
Surprisingly cute for a movie awash in blood, entrails and icky zombie drool, admirably brisk ... and occasionally scary, especially if zombies creep the bejesus out of you.
11/03/09
The overall results are savvier and cheekier than not.
10/25/09
At 81 minutes, Fleischer's debut is cheerfully macabre, briskly paced, brimming with demented energy, and otherwise totally disposable.
10/24/09
Thankfully there's nothing remotely serious about Zombieland. It's just a heck of carnival attraction (Shoot the ducks/Shoot the zombies) on a roller coaster filled with laughs.
10/23/09
Zombieland will earn its place right next to Shawn of the Dead as a good comedy.
10/21/09
The best zombie exploitation film since Shaun of the Dead. With Twinkies.
10/19/09
No matter what genre you peg "Zombieland" in, the fact is that it's one damn great piece of film making and likely one of my favorite films of 2009...
10/19/09
Ultimately, Zombieland works best as pure, breezy entertainment with a pinch of depth.
10/17/09
After the mandatory splatter scenes, Ruben Fleischer’s film becomes more character-driven and enjoyable.
10/16/09
Inspiration is pretty fallow after about half an hour.
10/16/09
There are more than enough good gags, but no moments that'll make you gag.
10/16/09
Murray is hilarious and the chief reason for seeing the film.
10/15/09
While not as clever as Shaun or as scary as parts of Dawn, this horror comedy does pull off a minor coup in its genre%u2014it successfully uses a zombie apocalypse as the setting for a romantic comedy/family picture.
10/11/09
It's a fundamentally lazy and witless film.
