Zombieland
I watched Zombieland last night – after repeated recommendations – and I have to say that I was more annoyed than anything. I should have known that it wasnt going to be that good when this dork came into my room about 10 minutes into the film and stated how funny he thought it was.
The main character was the main reason for my annoyance. “Columbus” would have been funny had I seen this film 5 years ago. But his blatant copying of Michael Cera’s type of humour, impersonation of his character, and just overall look and physique made for a severe lack of originality and just an overall bad character.
Now, Woody Harrelson was awesome – as he always is. I really like him as an actor and his role as “Tallahassee” was no different. While he always holds a little bit of Woody Harrelson in each role, he does a great job at adapting to each character, at least in my amateur opinion.
Lastly, I really don’t get the current pop obsession with zombies anyways. Every time I am in the book store I see some zombie survival guide or a zombie novel. Not to mention that stupid I am Legend movie – come on Fresh Prince.
Save your time and pass on Zombieland - there is no value to watching it and, besides Harrelson’s performance, really not that entertaining, except for some of the slapstick killing scenes
