Leave your thoughts about 28 Weeks Later.
| FilmStew.comBrent SimonIts putative emotional centerpiece - a sequence involving a mass escape - is a piece of cheap, empty theater, exacerbated by illogical staging. |
| Sun Publications (Chicago, IL)Josh LarsenThe psychological damage inflicted here is worse than any bite wound. |
| St. Paul Pioneer PressChris Hewitt (St. Paul)The opening is fantastic, and the rest of it won't bore you, even if it's a little disappointing. |
| CinerinaKarina MontgomeryBesides exhilarating, terrifying action, what 28 Weeks Later achieves best is a mood of terror, vigilant fear, and high-alert tummy flutters. Worth every penny. |
| Apollo GuideBrian WebsterWhile parallels with the Iraq situation are unmistakeable, it's more concerned with terrifyingly dismal atmosphere and a kinetic, intense race for survival. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonScarier and more visceral than anything I've seen in a long while. |

| Zertinet MoviesSteven SnyderAgainst all odds, Weeks proves to be a jarring and effective follow-up to its equally-shocking predecessor. |
| Q Network Film DeskJames Kendrickworks not just because of its visual and thematic resonance with current global traumas, but because it grips you on an emotional level |
