Definitely did not live up to it's predecessor

Haven't seen it yet, but I liked the prequel, Maybe I'm better off erasing the second one from my HDD?...

what????? 28 weks later is way better than days. to me it is way more scary, realistic, and gruesome. also weeks gave me a sense that the world was over and that i was only person left along with the few survivors and it gave me a feeling of clausthrophobia. that movie rocked and it is so scary. best horror movie since the ring since nowadays horror movies are garbage. also my 3 favorite movie of the year so far.

I thought it was decent.

I thought 28 weeks was better than 28 days.

Spoilers!

 There was one major problem for me, and that was in the middle with the 'disaster' plan.  That would NOT be the real plan of a military group in that position - they would have been distributed, with steel doors, not a central location with a flimsy chain.

Once I saw that, the rest of the movie (which would have been pretty good) was ruined.

I think, instead of having the military just be grossly incompetent, it would have been better if the following had happened:

1)    the little boy and his sister meet their mom, who we know is infected but the audience does not yet.  She kisses the little boy and hugs his sister, but we don't think anything about it.  Then the military comes, rescues them, etc.

2)    Upon returning to the base, the mother is held in quarantine while the children are released back into the care of their father.  This too would be a pretty stupid breach of biohazard protocol, but it is much more understandable due to the fact that they know the kids, their father is well known, etc.

3)    The father takes the kids to eat in the cafeteria.  While eating there, the scientists discover that the mom is infected, and start to activate the biohazard containment protocols.  Before they can, though, the little boy shares some food with his father and the transfer of saliva causes the father to turn.  Because they are in the cafeteria, the virus quickly spreads to a large number of people

At this point you have the same scenario as they set up in the movie, but with much more realistic behavior on everyone's part.

Other than that, it was well filmed, well acted in, etc.  If the middle had been different, I probably would say it was as good as the first... but with that middle it was only about 60%-70% as good.

YES I DEMAND REALISM IN MY ZOMBIE MOVIES WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE ME? 

I really liked the movie. The military compound reminded me of the Green Zone in Iraq. I admit some parts could have been done a lot better but it's still head and shoulders above most other horror movies.

I thought the entire Father Zombie (Infected guy or whatever you call him) storyline was horrible. I mean, these things are so enraged that they put their heads through steel doors. I dunno about you, but thats pretty pissed off. These people supposedly weren't undead. There were just infected with a virus. Their hearts beat, blood flowed through their veins. They were so enraged that they didn't think of eating, and died of starvation, yet this guy has the clarity of thought to follow those kids throughout the city, in the dark. In a dark that was so dark that they chick had to use nightvision to see. I realize that I have to suspend disbelief to find the movie even remotely realistic, but the first one really nailed it. One of the other things that I absolutely hated about the movie was the lack of intelligence by the characters. Why did the guy come off the roof? Seemed perfectly safe to me. Why did he lead everyone out on the street unarmed, amidst sniper fire, and hoards of raving lunatics, when they had a perfectly good place to hide? Why did the guy at the end take the kids back to France, without first clearing it with his superiors? I mean through the whole movie he couldn't pick them up. Now all of a sudden, he picks up two bloody kids, one with bites, in his helo and flies them back to France! I expect this kind of plot advancement from Freddie or Jason movies. Not from a movie that is called, "Smart" and ,"Intelligent". I was entertained to a point by this movie. My expectations were pretty high. I think some of the gore in this movie was some of the most brutal I have ever seen. You guys that have seen it know what I am talking about. I did think it was funny that the guy was beating the chick at the end with the rifle butt but you could still see her face in the lowlight scope. He would have had to have been beating her with the barrel end. And the Helo thing. That was stolen straight from Peter Jackson and the old family favorite, Dead Alive. Very nice.
