	28 Days Later - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		28 Days Later (2002) is a low-budget post-apocalyptic science fiction movie directed by Danny Boyle and written by Alex Garland.
		The film also bears similarity to John Wyndham's novel The Day of the Triffids in several of its story elements, notably in scenes where the central character awakes in a deserted hospital amidst a post-apocalyptic London.
		28 Days Later differs from many zombie films in that "the Infected" are not undead zombies, but living humans driven insane by a highly communicable virus.

	28 Days (2000) - Reviews - Moovees.com
		Her addiction is put to the test when a judge sentences her to 28 days at a drug rehab clinic -- punishment for ruining her sister's wedding and causing some severe damage to the surrounding neighborhood.
		28 Days greatest achievment is the subtlety in which it carries itself, working in a genre where characters usually ramble on about how bad alcohol is when everyone in the audience already knows this.
		Even though 28 Days is in no way a romantic comedy and is strictly a drug rehab comedy, it will still appeal to the same handful of moviegoers.

	28 Days Later Movie Review at Hollywood Video (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Both a social commentary on violence and a nightmarish horror film, 28 Days Later is not for the squeamish or faint-hearted.
		Cut ahead the titular 28 days later and comatose patient Jim (Cillian Murphy) is waking up, naked, in a London hospital bed.
		In some ways, 28 Days Later is certainly an homage and tribute to the zombie movies of George Romero, Lucio Fulci, and Lamberto Bava and the apocalyptic visions of The Omega Man and The Last Man On Earth.

	The 28 Hour Day (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Some of the benefits of extending the length of the day are relatively clear: you would simply have more time to do the things you wanted to do.
		Everything you do now in a typical day could be done for a little longer: you could sleep longer, work longer, spend longer blocks of time with your family and friends, and have more leisurely meals.
		There are also benefits that come from the fact that, on a 28-hour day, our wake-sleep cycles would not be synchronized with the earth's cycle of light and dark.

	28 Days Later... (2002) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		28 Days Later, like the Romero zombie flicks of yore, is ultimately an allegory of the days we are living in, an age in which we are constantly confronted with violence by the media (much like the ape right at the start of the film), where violence begets violence, and humanity faces an uncertain future.
		I applaud Danny Boyle's bravery in making 28 Days Later because he undoubtedly took a big commercial risk when the majority of the cinema-going public might prefer escapism to words of caution.
		And even if you didn't like it, it would be advisable to give 28 Days Later another chance; it's a haunting experience when looked at from the right angle.

	Review: 28 Days (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		But there's a key difference between Ryan's When a Man Loves a Woman and Bullock's 28 Days: the former is an effective, honest story while the latter is contrived and unconvincing.
		28 Days represents the Hollywood-ized view of alcoholism and rehabilitation: recovery really isn't all that bad, and, after a month of secluded twelve-stepping and bonding with society's other cast-offs, even the most serious addict will be on the straight-and-narrow with all past misdeeds forgiven.
		Alcoholism is a disease of denial, and Bullock's Gwen Cummings is still in that mode even after a judge orders her to spend 28 days at Serenity Glen, a rehab center for the mind, body, and spirit.

	SPLICEDwire \| "28 Days" review (2000)
		Director Betty Thomas' name in the opening credits of "28 Days" came as a big relief leading in to what looked like a soft-pedaled, politically corrected comedy about a happy-go-unlucky drunk -- played by button-cute Sandra Bullock -- wise-cracking her way through rehab.
		Not wanting to face her problem, Gwen's primary defense system is spiteful sarcasm, which she dispenses generously and at the slightest provocation as she crashes through the symptoms of denial and withdrawal.
		"28 Days" has respect for its subject matter but when Thomas introduces the story's obligatory episodes of harsh reality (a patient's tragic overdose, for instance), she refused to give in to the melodrama lurking around every corner.

	28 Days (2000)
		Betty Thomas' amiable little rehab romantic dramedy 28 Days may aspire to be more, but it's clearly another member of this disingenuous movie family.
		Unlike the courageously honest (and financially disastrous) drama Clean and Sober, 28 Days' lighthearted tone all but mocks the experiences of countless real-life heroes who have struggled through rehab and become clean.
		The pitiful trailer for 28 Days, including the horrendous tag line "The life of the party before she got a life," almost completely dooms this film right out of the starting gate.

	The Popkorn Junkie :: 28 Days Later
		A virus is unleashed from a British research facility that causes the infected to become afflicted with a super desire to kill and inflict harm, turning them into mindless, blood thirsty zombies.
		The virus spreads quickly and twenty-eight days later, almost all of the world is obliterated, except for a small group of survivors in London, who desperately try to survive.
		"28 Days Later" is one of the best horror films of the last ten years and one of the best films of 2003.

	28 Days film review
		Fortunate not to end up in jail, Gwen is sent to a rehabilitation clinic for 28 days where, under the aegis of counsellor Cornell (Steve Buscemi), she's told to get her life in order.
		Bullock is by far the most watchable thing in 28 Days and holds the film together when the heady cocktail of laughter, tears and romance threatens to sour.
		Falling uneasily between the film it could have been (a lightweight rom-com) and the film it perhaps should have been (an edgy portrait of addiction and self-loathing), 28 Days is an intermittently engaging and inoffensive tonic which, with a bit less syrup, could have been really special.

		Within 28 days the country is overwhelmed and a handful of survivors begin their attempts to salvage a future, little realising that the deadly virus is not the only thing that threatens them.
		Even though it's only a single disc, the 28 Days Later DVD includes a lot of very interesting features, including the alternate ending that was shown after the end of the film a couple months into its theatrical run.
		28 Days Later was one I skipped in theaters because I won't see any more videos badly blown up onto 35mm because some director's convinced himself it looks better than film while the studio saves a few bucks on processing.

	28 Days (2000): Sandra Bullock, Dominic West, Viggo Mortensen, Azura Skye - PopMatters Film Review
		Certainly, 28 Days has behind it a well-known lineage of rehab movies, which are, on the whole, a dreary lot, focused on harrowing DTs, lonely nights, and frightful, hallucinatory point-of-view effects.
		28 Days doesn't stretch anyone involved: the point appears to be to make all performers likeable and all the characters's situations look fixable.
		All of which means that 28 Days might have been a film of its time, a little giggly or disheveled maybe, but acknowledging and even assessing its cultural context.

	Chicken Yoghurt: 28 days passes
		It sounds to me, sitting four thousand miles away, as if there was another of these problems like the one we had with House of Lords reform, where MPs have to vote tactically on different amendments rather than getting to decide which option was most popular.
		28 days is too long, long enough for a zombie plague to wipe out London for a start, but it's a damn site better than 90.
		I'm not advocating something longer than 28 days: I'm just interested in whether the Commons voted as it did because that was what it wanted, or because that was how the procedural technicalities panned out.

		A deadly virus escapes from a research centre and within twenty eight days the entire country is infected with the exception of a few survivors...
		28 Days later is strangely a mix of both great concept, zomie scares and obscure drama thrown in for good measure.
		What really sets 28 Days apart is that it is daring in all quarters; sticking to a British setting, casting relative unknowns in lead roles and sticking to a small screen budget which lends the film a superb documentary feel which adds to the feeling that this could actually happen.

	28 DAYS LATER
		Because of its depiction of group insanity via isolation, Days is a bit more like Brian K. Vaughn's excellent comic Y-The Last Man, or even The Beach, which was the last film made by Days' director (Danny Boyle) and screenwriter (Alex Garland).
		Days should right people's impressions of the Trainspotting director, especially his decision to shoot the film using digital video, which not only gives Days more texture, it also gives it a more degraded, apocalyptic look and feel.
		And Days isn't a brainless slasher-zombie flick, like (P)Resident Evil, even if its last act, which devolves into the video for "Jeremy," is a bit unsatisfying.

		The length of a woman's menstrual cycle (the number of days from the first day of one period to the first day of the next) is determined by the number of days it takes her ovary to release an egg.

	MovieMartyr.com - 28 Days Later
		28 Days Later title card comes up, things improve a bit, and Boyle starts establishing a feel that’s, at least for a while, closer to the old “Twilight Zone” TV show.
		Since the budget of the film is so tightened, we only get to hear verbal accounts of past horrors instead of getting to see visual recreations, and the monologues hardly well enough written or acted to boost suspense, though the lack of audience interest in the superficial characters doesn’t help much either.
		Still, those moments, however familiar, play better than the equally shopworn, heavy-handed speeches about the meaningless of life in a world gone so wrong and the tired insistence that man is actually a savage beast at his heart.

	The Straight Dope: How come February has only 28 days?
		They say February has always had 28 days, going back to the 8th century BC, when a Roman king by the name of Numa Pompilius established the basic Roman calendar.
		Three hundred fifty five days was the approximate length of 12 lunar cycles, with lots of leap days thrown in to keep the calendar lined up with the seasons.
		It was the last month of the year (January didn't become the first month until centuries later), it was in the middle of winter, and presumably, if there had to be an unlucky month, better to make it a short one.

		The movie flashes forward 28 days, picking up Jim (Cillian Murphy), a bike courier who looks a tad simian himself, as he wakes up in a hospital bed and wanders through the trashed and abandoned avenues of London.
		''28 Days Later'' was completed before the arrival of SARS (though after 9/11), yet it overlaps with that recent news event in a way that's timely enough to make the coincidence feel vaguely sinister, as if the movie knew something.
		That his fantasy of ''rage'' run amok turns out to be a good old zombie freakfest is nothing to be ashamed of, but ''28 Days Later'' might have been even scarier had he acknowledged that's all he was making.

	"Days" of the Dead: Danny Boyle Turns Apocalyptic With "28 Days Later"
		For "Trainspotting" director Danny Boyle, his apocalyptic thriller "28 Days Later" actually turns out to be a smart zombie flick that doesn't try to incorporate any postmodern irony.
		It worked: "28 Days Later" is so stylishly shot (on DV) that even art-house snobs will want to get a look at these infected creatures (Fox Searchlight releases the film today).
		The only way we'll ever get that original cast back together is if they tempted were that rare chance for an actor to literally be 10 years older, which they will be by the time we shoot it if it happens.

		28 Days is no "downer" drunk movie like Leaving Las Vegas with Elizabeth Shue and Nicholas Cage, but the message is similar.
		28 Days has a lot of what I call "hard humor." We can sometimes laugh at what dysfunctional family members do, but it's really not funny.
