Spoiler!

is not what people will expect but I liked it a lot. Half of it is in line with the '28' franchise and then it progresses into an A24-esque drama with a post-apocalyptic rage virus backdrop.

Super weird, visually engrossing (the initial mainland shots are eerily stunning with the silhouettes of the infected), and stylistically very British (which like the first kind of sets it apart).

Thematically it's really beautiful with a touching story at its core.

This one is going to be divisive with audiences. The nitpicking will be insufferable because of how it creatively deviates from the stereotypical zombie fare and tropes to forge a meaningful story that isn't solely based around surviving the infected.

Its also funny and I can see the TWD mindhive not liking that.

Fiennes is great in it.

The cliffhanger set up for The Bone Temple was goofy and dumb but its only 5 minutes of the movie.

Totally enjoyable. Great story. Lots of things happen. You'll always get something unique from Boyle.
