what a film, absoloutly ace! laughed all the way thru, bloody brilliant!!!!!!!!!

Amazing movie, just the right combination of stereotypical zombie movie features to make it hilarious and not cheesy.

Arguably, one of the finest horror comedies of all time is Edgar Wright's Shaun of the Dead.

Since its release in '04, there have been a superfluous number of attempts to meet and/or exceed its simplistic genius. Based only on watching the trailers for Zombieland, I thought the film had some serious potential to match Shaun of the Dead in terms of its quality, and possibly, just possibly even usurp it. Now having seen the film, I'm happy to say that Zombieland does just that.

Unlike many comedies in recent memory, in which the majority of laughs are provided solely in the trailer, Zombieland is filled to the brim with laugh-out-loud moments and memorable performances, thanks in large to the brilliant cast. Eisenberg is fantastic as the main protagonist. He manages to portray a sense of vulnerability and awkwardness without becoming too much like Michael Cera. Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin are also terrific as the sweet, yet tough Wichita and the more-mature-than-she-seems Little Rock, respectively.

The real stand-out performance, though, is Woody Harrelson as the Twinkie-lovin', zombie-hatin' Tallahassee. Next to that of Robert Downey Jr. in Iron Man, this is definitely the best comeback performance of the year (and tops the all time best performances of his entire career). There's also a painfully hilarious, yet notable, cameo appearance from Bill Murray that would be a crime to spoil if I say any more. Suffice it to say, this is – hands-down – the best cameo that I've ever seen in a film.

Possibly the most surprising aspect of Zombieland, however, is how much heart there is. It comes not only from the cast of characters, but from the director and film crew as well. They did a bang up job making the audience ultimately feel invested in the story and the characters, which – I think – is the most important thing any film of any genre can do. Between the witty writing, unbelievable acting, and an opening scene which will forever be engrained in my memory (best use of a Metallica song EVER), Zombieland has certainly made its mark in the film industry.

This film has instantly become a horror favorite of mine. Everything about this movie came perfectly together to create a film that will, undoubtedly, become a cult classic for all time.

Really fun, there are parts I just can't believe they pulled off... it was really GREAT!

So much fun it should be illegal.

This movie is fundamentally empty.

'Zombieland' may be the first undead road-trip movie. The picture is light and unassuming, but it has a jaunty spirit; it's funny beyond the call of genre and - the cool part, of course - wonderfully disgusting.

The humor is vicious and the supporting cast is viscous. But underlying the carnage in Zombieland is a sweetly beating heart.

An improbably delicious comedy about a quartet of human survivors crossing an America that's been taken over by ravenous hordes. (There's even a Charlie Chaplin zombie working Hollywood Boulevard in front of the Chinese Theater.)

Zombieland is a romance, a comedy, a road movie and a freewheeling schlock horrorfest, all in one.
