	28 Days Later Summary
		It is another twenty-eight days later; as predicted by West, the Infected are slowly dying from starvation.
		28 Days Later is not an actual zombie film in that "the Infected" are not undead zombies, but living humans driven insane by a highly communicable virus.
		However, later in the film, a dejected soldier laments to Jim that because the characters are radio-isolated, as far as they know the infections in New York and Paris were contained and the rest of the planet survived, while the entire island of Great Britain has been quarantined.

		It is another twenty-eight days later; the Infected are slowly dying from starvation.
		However, later in the film, a dejected soldier laments to Jim that because they're radio-isolated, for all the characters know the infections in New York and Paris were contained and the rest of the planet survived, while the entire island of Great Britain has been quarantined.
		In "28 Days Later," a megavirus accidentally released from a primate-testing lab (maybe it's a military weapon, but in the grand tradition of apocalypse films, its origins are not explained) has turned virtually the entire British population into murderous, ravening ghouls in less than a month.

	28 DAYS LATER/ ***1/2
		The structure of this opening allows "28 Days Later" to signal that it is going to be a gore flick while quietly introducing us to the devastation of its situations.
		"28 Days Later" was a fully funded production, directed by hit British director Danny Boyle, and yet it has been shot on cheap videotape, giving it a fuzzy, blurred look that creates the right feeling of repulsive, obnoxious seediness.
		Incidentally, a reader named Alan Maughan writes me to note that the period of 28 days is becoming rather significant in movies about the apocalypse, what with the title of this release and the warning of the giant bunny rabbit in last week's "Donnie Darko".

	DVD Verdict Review - 28 Days Later
		28 Days Later tells us that somewhere along the line we're going to mess with something that knows how to fight back hard, and when faced with this threat, the only viable means of resistance will not be those wonderful futuristic conveniences, but the tools of our evolutionary ancestry: the knife, the club, the projectile.
		Perhaps 28 Days Later is the ultimate crime nightmare, a metaphorical depiction of a world where the felonious element is unstoppable and unflappable, impossible to control or understand.
		True, 28 Days Later is not 100% successful, but when compared to other independent (or big budget) attempts at rewriting the living dead niche, it's less of a video game and more of a personally moving motion picture.

	DVD Review - 28 Days Later (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		With "28 Days Later" British director Danny Boyle tried his hands at the zombie genre and created a movie that is superbly thrilling and horrifying.
		Borrowing liberally from every zombie film conceivable, such as "Day of the Dead," "Dawn of the Dead," "Resident Evil," as well as the classic science fiction thriller "The Omega Man", "28 Days Later" is a post-apocalyptic horror film that will have you on the edge of your seat.
		28 days after the initial unleashing of the virus by animal activists, bicycle courier Jim (Cilian Murphy) awakes from a coma and finds that the hospital is absolutely empty.

	: RevolutionSF - 28 Days Later : Review
		The violence in 28 Days Later is not the gleeful cartoon violence we've grown to love in James Bond movies, Nightmare on Elm Street sequels, and Final Destination and Final Destination 2.
		The violence in 28 Days Later is abrupt, unpleasant, dirty, and matter-of-fact.
		However, 28 Days Later is the best horror movie released so far this year, and it's easily among the top ten horror movies of the last five years.

	28 Days Later
		In the exciting new horror film 28 Days Later, British director Danny Boyle (Trainspotting) imagines a fantastic situation - the fall of modern England to a disastrous blood epidemic that produces marauding zombies.
		Skip forward 28 days and we meet young Jim (Cillian Murphy), awakening from a coma in a deserted hospital and a deserted London.
		28 Days Later may be all the more terrifying in that Boyle had the absolute sense to shoot the film on digital video, heightening the in-your-face feeling of the film's many shocking and horrific showdowns and enhancing the realism of a city destroyed as if by war.

	28 Days Later review (2002) - Qwipster's Movie Reviews (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The initial scene of 28 DAYS LATER involves infiltration of an animal testing center by a group of militant animal activists, who in their quest for animal freedom unknowingly release a monkey infected with a virus which induces mindless rage.
		Later he finds that he isn't alone, and that there are others who haven't yet been infected, and they form a band to combat the infected in the quest for survival.
		As mentioned in the first paragraph, 28 DAYS LATER is similar to Boyle and Garland's earlier work, THE BEACH, in that it explores the dangers humans face not only from total anarchy but from totalitarianism as well.

		In "28 Days Later," Jim (Cillian Murphy) survives a virus that has wiped out most of the Earth's population and must fend off zombies to stay alive.
		The story resumes 28 days later, when a naked man, played by Cillian Murphy, awakens on a hospital gurney in an eerily abandoned London.
		It would exaggerate the point to call "28 Days Later" a thinking person's zombie film, because the basic premise is scary without the zombies.

		That said, 28 DAYS LATER might just be the bleeding edge of a living dead renaissance.
		To say much more about 28 DAYS LATER would be to spoil the twists and turns as the rag tag bunch makes its way to what they think is the answer to their problems.
		Shot in a grainy, digital video format that gives it the look of a documentary, 28 DAYS benefits from a strong cast and an unintentional bond with current events like the outbreak of SARS and daily stories of terrorism, warfare and mistrust of the government.

	SPLICEDwire \| "28 Days Later" review (2003) Danny Boyle, Cillian Murphy, Naomi Harris
		The eerily and utterly empty streets of a looted London in the early scenes of "28 Days Later" are a perfectly chilling primer for the gritty neo-B-movie horror to follow in this incisive, underground-styled revival of the zombie flick genre.
		While Jim was comatose, a band of well-meaning animal-rights activists had attempted to free a handful of monkeys from a lab where they were quarantined with an unknown virus so powerful that any contact with contaminated body fluids almost instantaneously induces gory, guttural heaves and, within moments, a fierce, mindless, furiously cannibalistic bloodlust.
		As a struggle ensued the cages were opened, the activists and lab scientists were infected and now -- 28 days later -- Jim is about to be discovered by what's left of London's feral, zombiefied population, now starving for human flesh.

	28 Days Later
		By degrees he comes to learn that in the past 28 days, a blood-borne virus has been released from a research facility and swept across England, Paris and New York, killing many and turning most into murderous zombies.
		Every summer film season needs a horror flick, and “28 Days Later” is the most daring and memorable addition to the genre in years.
		Two late twists in the film shroud humanity itself in a dark cloud of cynicism, and “28 Days Later” becomes something greater because it realizes, amid this hopelessness and despair, that not every survivor is interested in being a hero.

	28 Days Later (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Twenty-eight days later, a small group of survivors are trapped in London, caught in a desperate struggle to protect themselves from the infected.
		Whereas one was a mediocre sappy ass drama, this “28 days” is a slick, edgy, horror flick that shows some real skills in the storytelling department.
		Although 28 Days Later is up to that standard, it did offer quite a few frights which kept me entertained.

	28 days later
		Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later seems to have a lot on its mind -- it was originally released (in Britain) right when SARS reared its ugly head -- and that's part of what's wrong with it.
		Indeed, I wonder how much of 28 Days Later -- which, like 12 Monkeys, posits an apocalypse wrought by misguided activists -- is really a right-wing paranoid fantasy in disguise.
		For all its grit and gore, 28 Days Later is every bit as much a reactionary, establishmentarian work as the horror movies of fifty years ago.

	The Popkorn Junkie :: 28 Days Later

		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.

	IGN: 28 Days Later Review
		All it takes is a single drop of this blood to become infected, and in a few seconds the victim dies, and a few seconds later the rage sets in, and for all intents and purposes they're walking dead ready to kill.
		Drawing comparisons, 28 Days Later summons the aura and aggressiveness of George Miller's Mad Max and the urgent yearning to uncover one's forgotten past as in Dark City.
		They've been around the block these past 28 days, they've seen their friends and family and everyone they've known die, and they're not reluctant to kill anyone if that person unfortunately gets infected.

	28 Days Later
		If only "28 Days Later" didn't wimp out in its final shots with a syrupy ending, the film may have gone down as a true masterpiece of zombie horror.
		Although marketed as a zombie horror film, "28 Days Later" isn't a zombie film, because its world has been taken over by the infected living, not the walking dead.
		Boyle amps up the anxiety and intensity greater than all those movies were able to accomplish, and the first half of "28 Days Later" stacks up as a real nail biter.

	DVD Talk Review: 28 Days Later
		Ads for "28 Days Later" pushed the fact that director Danny Boyle had put together something that would revolutionize horror, or something along those lines, which seemed a little too boastful.
		Skip ahead to 28 days later, when Jim (Cillian Murphy) awakens in a London hospital, where he was unconscious.
		VIDEO: "28 Days Later" was shot on digital video, both to cut cost and to give the film a rough appearance that would - if successful - give the film a look that would bring the audience further into the reality presented within this tale.

	28 Days Later
		That alone would be reason enough to praise Boyle’s film to no end, but 28 Days Later also happens to be an exciting horror/science fiction/action film in its own right: Trainspotting meets Day of the Dead.
		As its title indicates, the film begins 28 days after an incredibly virulent disease, a “psychological virus,” has killed off almost all the population of England, leaving the few uninfected to fight off hordes of hyperviolent, zombie-like attackers.
		The plague is the result of research attempting to find an antidote for “pure rage.” Thus the dying, decomposing victims maniacally assault anyone they encounter, their blood as well as their minds literally contaminated with unalloyed fury.

	28 DAYS LATER
		28 Days Later starts off as Twelve Monkeys, then strays into Day of the Triffids territory before settling for a The Omega Man and other post-apocalyptic movie scenarios.
		28 Days Later is quite good at establishing a sense of dread and foreboding.
		Ultimately though, 28 Days Later makes effective use of the material at hand, and while it won’t be anything new to sci-fi fans, it is recommended.

	dOc DVD Review: 28 Days Later (2002)
		28 Days Later does what all great horror films should do, in that it avoids all that unnecessary time-filling character introduction stuff (that comes later, in wonderfully slow moments) in favor of hammering home the start of the creepy storyline right from the first frame.
		Like The Omega Man before it, 28 Days Later is a film about those who must survive in some sort of post-apocalyptic world (in this case, a viral pandemic), and one where you often have better luck with "the infected" than you do with good old "normal" humans.
		28 Days Later marks the return of director Danny Boyle to the realm of edgy, violent filmmaking, which he has somehow sidestepped since the days of Shallow Grave and Trainspotting, here teamed with the writing of Alex Garland (who wrote the novel The Beach, which Boyle later made for the screen with Leonardo DiCaprio).
