After
watching the Zombieland, I was very impressed. The movie has a very good
beginning by starting with the main
character reading off his rules for survival. This shows that the main
character, “Columbus”, is smart about surviving. The movie throughout is very interesting though. As a zombie
movie I thought that it would be a kind of scary movie. However, you find out
very fast that it will be funny. Jessie Eisenberg and Woody Harrelson are the
main characters. This right away can show that it will be a comedy. Not to
mention that they putt Bill Murray in the mix later in the film!
Jesse Eisenberg’s character’s
name is Columbus. He goes by this because he wants to get to Ohio to see if his
parents are still alive. As he is traveling down the highway, he meets up with
a character by the name of “Tallahassee”, who is played by Woody Harrelson.
Tallahassee is very interesting because he is the total opposite of Columbus.
He likes to kill zombies and really does not have rules. As they travel
together, they get to know each other and eventually come to a grocery store.
They do this because Tallahassee wants to get one of his beloved Twinkies. When
they are in the grocery store, they kill zombies and find two girls. The girl’s
names are Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin). At first the
girls seem harmless, but then steal Columbus and Tallahassee’s car and weapons.
After this great setback,
Tallahassee and Columbus get another car and head down the highway. Tallahassee
and Columbus eventually meet up with Wichita and Little Rock again. However, this
time they ride together. Wichita and Little Rock tell them where they want to
go. They tell them about a place in Los Angeles, which is a theme park that is
supposedly zombie free. As they head to LA, they stop in a mansion. In this
mansion they find another person. This person that they find is no other than
Bill Murray. After spending some time there Wichita leaves and Columbus goes
after her. Tallahassee feels obligated to go with him. As they chase after them
they eventually get to the theme park. At this theme park there are zombies
that are chasing Wichita and Little Rock. At the end of the movie the four of
them feel like they have all become great friends. They all join each other and
drive away with each other.
The movie to me was very good.
It gave a different approach on zombies. It made running from zombies seem not
as scary. As in other shows and movies zombies seem a little smarter. However,
in this movie they only seemed faster. The whole movie keeps you entertained
with laughter. To me I really liked this since it was something new to me. I
would definitely recommend this to people who want to have a good laugh. This
is not your ordinary zombie movie, and it proves that comedy can be in a zombie
movie!
