Friday Family Film Night: 28 DAYS LATER review
Description
On the eleventh night of our #31DaysToHalloween the Mister joins me in reviewing 28 DAYS LATER (2002), from a screenplay by Alex Garland, the film is directed by Danny Boyle. Bike courier Jim (Cillian Murphy) awakens from a coma 28 days after a hyper-contagious rage virus has been accidentally unleashed, finding London deserted and overrun by fast, homicidal infected people. Jim joins a small band of uninfected survivors, including the hardened Selena (Naomie Harris), on a perilous journey across a desolate Britain toward a military quarantine promising safety. However, upon reaching the military compound, they discover the soldiers pose a threat more monstrous than the infected, forcing the survivors into a desperate final battle for their lives and humanity. The film clocks in at 1 h and 56 m, is rated R and we caught the film on Netflix but it is streaming on AMC+, PlutoTV but also to buy/rent on Prime Video. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
