At least pretty much everyone who saw it loved it.

It was bad, but the ending gave me a little hope for a new movie. Hopefully they get someone else to make it.
They can still do 28 centuries later, I suppose.
I never bothered to see this movie and I doubt I ever will.
Da Casta and this movie had an uphill battle to get viewers to see this one.
- 28 Days later was great until the last 20 minutes and then it really stumbled. With that said I loved the movie when it was released and I have watched it many times.
- 28 Weeks later had a spectacular opening sequence that was maybe 15 min or so and then it just went downhill fast. By the end it is just terrible.
- 28 Years Later was a total fucking mess, with parts that were comically terrible and parts that just didn’t make any sense. What was the deal with the medieval castle sequences set to shit music? How did the Alphas maintain that perfect gym body while living in open forests? What with the massively fat slug zombies that could slow crawl insanely fast? And then the ending happened.. OMG i really love the track suit wearing British teeth squad… (O_O)
DaCosta herself had an uphill battle with this one due to her baggage with The Marvels. 28 Years had the shine of reuniting Boyle & Garland after decades apart, and I think they are just that tiny bit more popular than DaCosta, which helps.
28 Years also had a phenomenal trailer with the Boots trailer, I do not remember any of the trailers for Bone Template they were that forgettable.
I liked 28 Years Later well enough, but 28 Days was easily the best of the three.
Bone Temple has a COMPLETELY different feeling, mood, everything. It’s extremely removed from the other three in most aspects, except the setting. That said, I reeeeeally liked it. I was shocked at how much I enjoyed it. The mood was perfect, it being very gruesome, and I can’t say much more without spoilers for others reading. I for sure recommend it; it’s under “Days” and above the others in ranking for me. ONE moment I fucking hated was it has the lamest, cheesiest (in a bad way), most ineffective attempt at a jumpscare I’ve ever seen. Insanely bad. Almost “take a point off” bad. But the rest of it makes up for that.
Also fuck your mother, bam she dead. ><
OMG.. I forgot about that. The whole thing was just a mess.
The second part is just 2 hours of big zombie dick
I downloaded this movie to watch on a flight not knowing it would be 60% hanging dong and 20% people being skinned alive. Not the best movie to be watching with strangers sitting around you so I had to shut it off.
I did finish it later and thought it was pretty good.
HAHA. BZD!!!
BZDs everywhere!
Well I liked it. Saw it straight after 28 years later and thought they went well together.
I enjoyed it as well, but i also like the horror genre for all its flaws, it had some, but overall it was entertaining and ive honestly enjoyed every single 28 installment so far. I also love every friday the 13th, nightmare on elmstreet, childs play/chucky installment, etc etc. Because even when they are bad, the bad is still entertaining.
Jumping on the hate bandwagon for every single movie or game that comes out, just makes you enjoy life a little less in my opinion. And its only a matter of time when people look back on these movies and realize they were just being harsh because everyone else was.
Same thing with virtually every single franchise saga or trilogy ever made. People shit on them, then years later they get memed, and then they give them a chance and more often than not, enjoy them, without the noise and social pressure to appear like some "superior critic" when they are just somebody who spends all their time scrolling reels for dopamine rather than mining it themselves through the creative process that is creating art itself, and claiming that reward the honourable old fashioned way. Through hard work and dedication to a task or craft.
I work in film, so maybe its the struggle i know that happens behind the scenes that makes me empathize and enjoy the technical aspects others may not understand or know about. But its a good watch, most people only care about the alphas massive fake penis, but it gets the people talking, and it for sure brought people to the seats. Love it or hate it, some makeup SFX artist lovingly sculpted, casted, molded, painted, and mounted that dick onto the actor for weeks or months, and it became the immortal centerpiece of what is already a fantastic example of modern practical art. They filmed it with cellphones for petes sake.
It was well made, haters can suck a big alpha dick for all i care. Kudos to the cast and crew. Maximum profit doesnt equal artistic success. That is solely a personal achievement between the artists, and the artists themselves.
Well, movie was shit yo
I didn't hate 28 years later but I didn't love it I thought it was perfectly fine . I hated Bone Temple though and actually walked out right after the Jimmy barn scene. I'm not against gore or violence but it seemed way over the top and I couldn't understand why we were spending so much time with the group.
That said, I eventually finished it at home because I hate judging an unfinished movie. The movie literally clicked right after that scene when you see his interaction with the doctor, and also his time with big daddy zombie. I did end up enjoying it way more, but I still feel like the whole Jimmy storyline could have been cut, and we would have 2 sequals instead of 3.
