This is the most amazing film I have ever watched so far. It scared me too death and the storylines are just great. I would recommend this film any day.

Gripping from start to finish. From the complete "what the f is going on here" confusion of the first few minutes to the explosive finish, this film deserves its cult status and US success. The shots of a deserted London are fantastic. The cast all demonstrate strong performances. The storyline grips without being over the top or predictable. Boyle has once again produced a classic film and his use of digital video/handheld cameras create a chilling monster of a film. Must see British film.

Crazy! Probably one of the best movies, in my opinion. I'm a sucker for the genre but, on many levels, I loved this movie.

What a fantastic film. My girlfriend hated the gore but I thought it was excellent. Twists at the end, similar to what a post-nuclear holocaustic Britain could look like and filled with personal realism at times of despair. The film is so engrossing that I for one didn't take any notice about how it was shot. It was claustrophobic and fast. Class

Well me and the little woman went to see Harry Potter only to find it sold out. So we plumped for the only other film we fancied in the seven-screen compex - 28 Days Later - not having a clue what it was about. The first 20 minutes were marred by the extremely noisy demolition of a mega-size bag of potato chips by an Arab gentleman in the next row (God, the Ritz in Riyad must be a nightmare). But I liked the film - much classier than the Hammer stuff we used to do -Good!

What a complete waste of time and energy! Considering the budget for this film, the end result looks like a cheap made-for-TV movie. Some good opening shots of a deserted London, but would it really have cost too much to have filmed some of the social decay and panic leading up to day 28?

The opening scenes of the film were great and I thought it might be a good movie. But after that it went downhill. Images of abandoned and deserted streets - you only needed so many and you got the picture. Dragged out and not what I would call horror. Don't waste your money...

This has to be one of the most chilling movies I have ever seen - I was hunched down in my seat for most of it. In the wake of Ebola outbreaks and chemical warfare, this scenario is not too far from the truth. Who can you trust? Are the zombies the monsters, or should we keep a closer eye on the military? Trust nobody - but trust me when I tell you this is an amazing film and you must see it... NOW.

About as scary as a bunch of kittens playing with a fluffy penguin. See the superior The Omega Man, and Day Of The Dead. This is typical of what British films do when they have a decent budget. They toss it in a ditch and claim it's brilliant. Incomprehensible and very boring. Good cast, dead script. A waste of everybody's time.

A movie completely unsure of itself is what I would consider this load of old tosh to be. Director Danny Boyle experiments with hand-held cameras (the type you can buy in a shop) and expects the public to pay for his trial and error. A group of hooded people invade a lab and attempt to release some monkeys. Fade to a hospital, where we see a young man on an operating table. He comes around and discovers that he's on his own - or is he? Zombies who can run at the speed of light cannot save it.
