Rent Zombieland: Double Tap (2019)

Great sequel - Zombieland: Double Tap review by SA

Great sequel. Laughed all the way through. Good to see to be original characters back and Bill Murray back in a cameo role. Didn't steer too far away from the original format. If you like that you'll like this

Another helping! - Zombieland: Double Tap review by HM

The first film set the scene as a humorous take on zombies. It worked. This is in the same vein but taking the fun further. If you liked the first one, this is even better for my money. The pace never lets up and there is a plot, not just a mindless chase. No depth of course, it is played for entertainment value and laughs. I am hard to please on the laughs front but this kept me chuckling and the action scenes are exciting; hard balance to get right as other attempts in the genre tend to overload the gore but this loads up the eye catching nonsense really well. Get popcorn/Jerky and beer then enjoy a good lark of a film.

Light hearted Zombie slaughter - Zombieland: Double Tap review by RP

A fun followup to the first film ten years ago. I am not quite sure why some found it not as successful and even tired. But I found it funny and entertaining and the new characters added to the enjoyment. Zombies have been done to death, but that doesn't mean the return of the original cast and new additions didn't make for a romp worth seeing. Zombies being slaughtered while the characters battle with their own insecurity was always fun. It was never supposed to be more than the sum of its parts and it all adds up to a light 90 minutes of light hearted slaughter.

Slacker zom-sequel - Zombieland: Double Tap review by AER

I enjoyed this, unlike most sequels it doesn't try to go bigger, bolder or more dazzling (or more boring). Like the first one it just ambles along and the fun comes in the details. The plot is negligible and the game cast entertaining - there are plotholes and a lack of logic, but in a film like Zombieland 2 who cares? It's good for one watch and is worth a look if you are a fan of the first one. It's not scary but I don't think it tries to be, it's more of an action-comedy with gore. This is world's better than Woody & Jesse's other sequel Now You See Me 2 (that was DOA), and it made me laugh, so I ain't mad at it. Zombieland 2 works, because just like the first one, it's just a dumb place-holder and embraces its slacker status.

Not as good as the orginal - Zombieland: Double Tap review by CP Customer

I watched Zombieland and thought it was good - Zombieland Double Tap is ok with a nice cameo by Bill Murray in the end titles but isn't a must-see in my opinion.

Pointless Sequel - Zombieland: Double Tap review by GI

A belated sequel arriving ten years after the original with a story set ten years on. The trouble is this really struggles to conjure up any sense of fun or originality and appears to be one for diehard fans of the first film. The ten years is one of the key problems because you have to be a real fan of Zombieland (2009) to remotely get the in-jokes that are liberally sprinkled throughout this sequel but now mean very little. The slightly dysfunctional family unit of Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg), Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) are becoming fed up with each other and are living in the remains of The White House. With zombies evolving into more dangerous adversaries the two girls head off on their own and Columbus finds Madison (Zoey Deutch) hiding in the shopping mall. They head off to find the girls and then relationship problems become all the more difficult. The need for easy money must be at the heart of the decision to make this film because despite a great vision of an apocalyptic USA and a really funny performance from Deutch as a dizzy and dumb blonde this fails to live up to much. Rosario Dawson and Luke Wilson offer supporting roles and their are some homages to the zombie sub-genre but other than that a forgettable film.

Misfiring sequel - Zombieland: Double Tap review by Alphaville

Laughter-free belated sequel to the superior Zombielend. The script has the cast simply play around in sketches that have little sense of plot, jeopardy or drama. Voice-overs and on-screen captions attempt to add missing humour but to no avail. Everything about the film smacks of trying too hard with insufficient ideas to merit the empty exercise.

To annoy UK viewers even more, there’s an annoying stupid American teenage girl along for the ride and a cloying sequence in homage to Elvis Presley. To further insult the audience’s intelligence, the unfunniest sketch of all has a tired cameo of Bill Murray killing yet more zombies during the end-credits. If you start fast-forwarding, pause after an hour for one single unexpected treat – a brilliantly choreographed single-shot brawl.
