28 28s Later

Zombie movies are still not exciting, but at least this didn't go as obvious as it could.

There's a little isle that's away from the mainland, and for some stupid reason, a rite of passage is going out and killing zombies (I don't care that they are infected with a rage virus, they are zombies). But instead of someone being stupid and letting the zombies in, the kid decides to take his suffering mother out because he heard there might be a doctor nearby. So, just roam over fields and dens and survive random zombies, what could be easier?

As I indicate, this wasn't as silly as it could be. Although the idea of needing to go out and kill a zombie to become is a stupid idea, it is just a set up for the actual plot of the movie of taking mother to doctor. Who happens to be a rather weird Ralph Finnes, which is not nothing.

The kid, played by Alfie Williams, isn't too annoying, and can be actually capable on screen. Jodie Comer is the mother, although I can't remember what else she's been in. And Aaron Taylor-Johnson is the father, being Aaron Taylor-Johnson.

And that ending... I know this movie is part of a series, but are we expecting a more immediate sequel?
