WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: R For strong violence and gore, language and some sexuality/nudity. WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT? If they're fans of the first film ("28 Days Later"), zombie films, and/or anyone in the cast, they probably will. Led by Doyle, Scarlet, Andy, and Tammy then try to make their way to safety and avoid both the swiftly moving zombies as well as the military that has orders to kill anything and everything in the city. The military, including sniper Doyle (JEREMY RENNER) and chopper pilot Flynn (HAROLD PERRINEAU) try to contain the outbreak, but it quickly becomes apparent it's too late.
That's drawn the attention of Scarlet (ROSE BYRNE), a medical researcher who believes Alice might hold the key to creating a vaccination for the malady, but her military commander orders that the infected woman be killed just to be safe.īefore that happens, however, Don goes to see her, ends up becoming infected, and then escapes from the building, thus spreading the zombie virus once again. Previously bitten during a zombie attack, her immune system has somehow stopped her from turning into a zombie, although she's a carrier of the virus. Kids being kids, they break the rules and sneak over to London to return to their former home where they unexpectedly discover their mother, alive but not so well. Ashamed about what he did, he lies to his kids about what really happened, and although shocked and saddened, they accept it and try to get on with their lives. With all of the zombies having previously died of starvation months ago, and NATO forces setting up shop to make sure the coast is clear, authorities have started reintroducing people back into one fortified part of the British Isles, just across from London.Īmong them are siblings Andy (MACKINTOSH MUGGLETON) and Tammy (IMOGEN POOTS) who were previously shipped off for their safety and are now reunited with their dad, Don Harris (ROBERT CARLYLE), who abandoned his wife Alice (CATHERINE McCORMACK) during one of the earlier zombie attacks. PLOT: It's been 28 weeks since a sudden zombie infestation wiped out the entire population of England. QUICK TAKE: Horror: Things go horribly wrong when military forces try to reintroduce people into London 28 weeks after a zombie infestation ravaged the land and killed everyone.
