Very different vibe to the original. More of an exploration of Aaron's character than a horror movie. No real twists or turns but a good script nonetheless.

A fantastic addition to the zombie/infected movie genre. A great idea well realised. Martin Freeman is fantastic! It's not often that a post-apocalyptic zombie style film manages to do something new and fresh.

Very funny, but why is nobody discussing the camerawork in this movie? Damn. One of my favourite one-shots ever!

This movie really should have been about 40 minutes shorter, but a solid watch. Great performances, but just really drags way after when you want it to end.

This movie starts so promisingly but very quickly comes unraveled. There are a lot of ridiculous decisions made by the characters, such as sending 3 men to subdue 5 women. Tons of inconsistencies and poor dialogue really drags it down. Not to mention the insane predictability of the last 3rd of the film. Give it a miss.

A tense and powerful piece of cinema. Fantastic performances all round aided by a great script.

Pretty standard zombie flick. Nicely shot and a good homage to the video games. You've just got to ignore the massive plot holes, but what do you expect from a movie like this!
(Can a news reporter continue the same interview for 2 days straight? Without even changing clothes? I don't think so.)

I disagree with some of the comments about this movie dragging. I found myself engrossed in the intimate tale of the two leads, and a few moments towards the end of the movie had me really wanting to hug Adam Driver. And probably congratulate him on some good decision making.

Vastly overrated. Script was okay but retreads a lot of territory from hundreds of other films. The acting is fine, Catherine Tate plays herself as always. A few good one-liners here and there, but nothing worth any real recognition. Won't be rewatching any time soon.

A scary look at the lives of sleep paralysis sufferers. It's really interesting to see how the human brain can create similar images with consistency in different people across continents and throughout history. The 'nightmare' scenes are done incredibly well and replacing the interviewees with actual actors was a great choice.

An utterly atrocious adaptation of a fantastic story. The actual time machine prop is literally the only redeeming feature.
