Not a fan of the overly hand-held, kenetic camera work but oddly enough I could stiill manage to see everything that was going on...
The problem with the writing is that unlike the first film which really felt like it was telling a story, this one feels more like it's using story to push the action forward as means to an end...It's inciting incident and then chase sequence after chase sequence...Which is fine because this movie is intense as hell...
I won't get into the plot contrivances specifically, but would it kill writers to NOT have people separate for no good reason?
So while 28 Days Later has a better story overall, 28 Weeks Later has more thrills, gore, and intensity...Which is fine by me.
9/10

All said much better than what I am about to attempt lol.
After being really excited to see this film I was in no way disappointed, it was possibly better than I even dared to hope.
I found the plot interesting and intense.
The gore and brutality excellent with some amazing scenes.
It was fast paced, edge of your seat stuff, with thrills and shocks to trow you back into your seat.
Lots of excitement, passion and blood.
Another 9/10 from me.
