well dont expect anything from the picture since it was shot on sd cameras. There is a very slight improvment over the dvd but it still looks like crap (like its supposed to) except for the last couple of mins which look great since they were shot on film. The dts hdma soundtrack is amazing and makes it well worth the purchase.

I definitely recommend it. A great sequel that goes in a slightly different direction in terms of thrills and horror. It's much faster paced. It's worth it

If you like the movie and you want to watch I would buy it. If you don't like the movie and you don't want to watch it then don't buy it.

Default It is not good.

This film is poor. The opening sequence is the only thing of value in the film as it offers a real ugly scenario and a real moral quandary, which really goes on to allow for good character dev... and then the main character gets bitten and it turns into an absolutely awful sequel. The zombie cam is laughable as is Bigby's performance; it's Anthony Hopkins in Legends of the Fall bad. Skip it.

Buy 28 weeks later...if you dont have or never watched 28 days later i suggest buying it also.

28 WEEKS later looks really good on blu...28 days doesnt look so hot but the story alone makes the movie a must have.

So dont wait any longer buy it and i guarantee you will watch it 3 or 4 times in the next 2 or 3 weeks....thats how good it is.

I highly disagree with this guy right here. The beginning is awesome but as for story wise its alittle out there but it does the job it is suppose to do. Danny Boyle did not take the helm at making a second one so of course its going to be vastly different than the original. The killing in this movie are awesome as well as the utter panic that ensues later in the film. A must buy if you are a fan of 28 days later! You shouldn't be disappointed.

Actually Boyle directed the opening sequence. For me, Byrne and Renner elevated the rest of the film well above an average sequel. The blu-ray is amazing, one of my better purchases.

I hope Boyle gets around to a third 28 movie sooner or later.

I have to agree. I was not impressed with this movie at all. The audio track was good, but that alone is not a good reason to watch a bad movie IMO.
