28 Years Later

Twenty-eight years since the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory, now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected. One such group lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway. When one member departs on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders, and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well.

I'm not at all into zombie or horror movies, but '28 Days Later' was one of the few that I actually liked...

Then '28 Weeks Later' was a step (or two) down from the first one, but still ok.

I expected '28 Years Later: Part 1' to be, at best, an equivalent to 'Weeks' but I **REALLY, REALLY liked it**. Cinematography, acting, directing, story, soundtrack, pacing, everything is just perfect. I'm actually considering rating this a 10/10, which is a first for me in this genre.

I hate that every other movie coming out now is in parts, and was wary of even starting this trilogy, but I'm happy that I went to see this one.

really glad to have had the chance to watch this in cinemas/on a big screen my first time as things like the kaleidoscope effect during the violent moments had so much impact. can't wait for the 4k blu to release.

A gripping, unnerving, and altogether thrilling saga,an art film!
Prepare for more gruesome kills, more
gross-outs. These movies are clearly infectious.

Boyle has done it again. 28 days and 28 weeks, imo are the 2 best zombie movies ever made. When the Walking dead series came out I thought there was no way we would ever get another 28 movie due to the fact that the production of Walking Dead was so good. Where could they go? I really didn't think they could come up with anything that would stand out. Man was I wrong! This movie, like the 1st 2 is just so well written and directed, it doesn't allow for your heart to take a rest. The scenes are immensely intense. I'm just so happy they wait till they know they have something special every time they release one of these movies. Another Boyle masterpiece.

There are few films that have had as much of an impact on me as “28 Days Later.” I watched it several times in my youth, sometimes three times in a row, and I was always thrilled. The film was also instrumental in breathing new life into the zombie genre in the early 2000s. The sequel, “28 Weeks Later,” this time without director Danny Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland, was decent, but it was also a very conventional take on the genre.

The question that most intrigued me before watching “28 Years Later” was definitely what prompted Boyle and Garland to return to this world after more than two decades. And it quickly becomes clear that they had no interest in retelling the same story.

On the contrary, “28 Years Later” is refreshingly unpredictable. It is primarily a coming-of-age film set in a fascinating world where the apocalypse has affected a small part of the globe while the rest of the world simply carries on. In 28 years, the infected have evolved, and the survivors have developed their own unique structures.

Boyle's direction makes for a thoroughly captivating film to watch. The editing takes some getting used to, but it is also extremely creative, and the landscapes are skillfully showcased. The screenplay is also worthy of praise. There is suspense and horror as well as a surprising amount of humor, with the plot clearly divided into two parts. Alfie Williams plays the lead role in both sections, and the young actor delivers an impressive performance. Jodie Comer and Aaron Taylor-Johnson are also good, and it should come as no surprise that Ralph Fiennes does a great job in his minor role.

That leaves the ending to mention, which is sure to divide viewers. The sequel is already reportedly in the can, and after this ending, it is likely to take on a very different tone. This would be true to the spirit of “28 Years Later,” because the unpredictability is what sets the film apart. Ultimately, I am thrilled that a blockbuster in 2025 is willing to take such risks.

"Her name is Isla."

One day things will be better. Then we'll spend time together. Then we'll enjoy each other's company.

Meanwhile, the moments of joy and beauty and connection are here, now, passing us by. And we don't even see it.

This wrecked me.

Danny Boyle you absolute madman. Who tf else is out here making movies like this?
