Review of Zombieland

Zombieland (2009)
10/10
Zombieland is quite possibly the right combination of cinematic excellence that produced a masterpiece for the ages.

OK It's not Citizen Kane or Henry the 8th. But this is one fantastic movie. I'm not a zombie movie lover. "dawn of the dead" hated it. "night of the living dead" snooze. This is not so much a zombie movie but more a Apocalypse movie. The movie starts with and is narrated by Jesse Eisenberg (Columbus...each character call each other by their destination). Jesse is the reason this movie works. It all revolves around him. He plays the virgin geek who learns how to survive by his set of rules. He meets up with three others. Woody Harrelson is the gun toting blood thirsty zombie killer. Emma stone and Abigail Breslen play con artist sisters. Together the chemistry is great. What makes this movie great is the chemistry between these four actors. The plot doesn't go where you expect it to go and blow it. Above all this is a great comedy. It's well timed, unexpected and funny as hell, but still has a heart. 10/10.
