Very few movies of 2009 I can say that about. <br /><br />I want a sequel just to see the story continue, but I know it won't ever live up to the first.

It left me clamoring for more of what made it so good: the unexpected depth in the characters (particularly Jesse Eisenberg's Columbus), the witty script, the sick-creative zombie kills and the voiceover narration.

Probably due to the quick up-to-speedness of the beginning, but I guess it just felt longer, which isn't an insult. It felt just right.<br /><br />I felt the detour in Beverly Hills took a little too long, but that's not to say it wasn't entertaining. I was just thinking that they were so close to their destination that it was weird that they were dallying for so long.<br /><br />Terrific flick.Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.com
