Synopsis: All is not well between demon-magnet Bella and Edward Cullen, her vampire Romeo. An innocent papercut at Edward's house puts Bella in grave danger when various members of the Cullen family can barely resist their hunger at the smell of blood. The Cullens promptly leave town, afraid of endangering Edward's beloved, and Bella sinks into an overwhelming depression.

Months later, she finally emerges from her funk to rebuild her life, focusing on her friendship with besotted teen Jacob from the reservation. Bella's unhealthy enthrallment to Edward leads her into dangerous and self-destructive behavior despite her new friends, and supernatural complications are bound to reappear.

Bella's being hunted by an evil vampire, and Jacob's adolescent male rage turns out to be incipient lycanthropy: It seems many Quileute Indians become werewolves in the presence of vampires, their natural enemies



Zombieland:

First of all, it’s debatable as to whether or not “Zombieland” even has a single zombie in the entire movie. There’s not a scene in this film that shows anyone coming back from the dead. Even one of the main characters mentions that the virus, which has apparently affected the entire world, is comparable to the mad cow disease. These semantics aren’t going to effect your enjoyment of the film too much, but it’s amusing enough to warrant a mention. For example, if you refuse to call the infected people of “28 Days/Weeks Later” zombies, then you should have the same problem with this one. So, you have a movie called “Zombieland” which may or may not have any actual zombies in it. It’s already off to a rough start, but put your fears aside, this is a good time if you can find the humour in a plague that has effectively ended mankind as you know it.

Zombies are always going to be a little funny. They’re a bit creepy and often quite repugnant, but they’re so unintelligent that it’s hard not to find the humour in some of their antics. Even the most serious films in the zombie sub-genre have their light-hearted moments. “Zombieland,” much like “Shaun of the Dead,” decides to take these funny moments from other films and base an entire movie around it. The result isn’t terrible, but “Zombieland” is far from being the next “Dawn of the Dead.” When a film labels itself as a horror/comedy, it crushes any hopes of a dramatic moment being taken seriously or any act of violence for that matter. It doesn’t matter if a zombie rips out the eyes of a 70 year old woman in a horror/comedy. The audience is going to laugh because they think that they are expected to.

Being labelled as a horror/comedy also puts pressure on a movie to be consistently funny, which “Zombieland” is not. There are a few funny parts here and there, but for every good joke, there is one that falls flat. The characters in this film are identified as their towns, or cities rather than by their first names. The lead character and narrator goes by Columbus. (Jesse Eisenberg) He’s the most entertaining character in the film, simply because of his neurotic behaviour. He seems to be a virgin, he has an awkward build for a man and curly hair to top it all off. He’s the older brother of Michael Cera (not really) trapped in a world of zombies. (Possibly) Shortly after the movie begins, Columbus runs into Tallahassee, (Woody Harrelson) a man who loves his cowboy hat and is on a quest to find a twinkie before they all expire. Woody Harrelson is pretty good in this movie, but there’s just not enough here for him to show off his acting ability. His gags fall flat most of the time and the whole “macho” thing doesn’t suit him too well. If he’s your whole reason for seeing this film, you’ll probably be a little disappointed. His character, Tallahassee is pretty run-of-the-mill.

Eventually joining up with the men are a couple of scheming sisters. Wichita (Emma Stone) is the older of the two and becomes the love interest of Columbus. She’s a down-to-earth, street smart type of woman and Stone certainly plays the part well. Little Rock, (Abigail Breslin) as you may assume, is the younger of the two sisters. She’s been ripping people off long before the apocalypse with her sister, but she just looks like you average 12 year old girl. Still, Breslin plays the role well enough. It’s just not something to rave on about for another paragraph. The zombie sub-genre is one with many forgettable characters. As far as the genre goes, “Zombieland” has a respectable cast, especially with Woody Harrelson. It’s just a shame that he wasn’t put to better use. The acting in general is good with no one standing out as dragging the production down.

This almost seems like an oxymoron, but “Zombieland” isn’t the goriest film out there. There’s certainly a lot of zombie ass-kicking, but the zombies themselves never really get a chance for retribution. In addition to being a one-sided affair, there is some questionable CG in “Zombieland.” In particular, a couple of scenes taking place at the Amusement Park are very noticeable. On the good side of things, the zombies look really good in this movie. They’re bloody, they’re ripped up and they’re dirty. They’re everything you would expect in a zombie, or at the very least, a drunken, upset homeless person. This film should also win some kind of award for its opening credits. They’re in slow motion, showing a side of the infected that you’ll wish you had never seen. This use of slow motion isn’t limited to the credits, either. It’s used well in a couple of other scenes throughout the movie.

“Zombieland” is a strange film. It hints at dramatic plot points, but confines itself to pure comedy for some reason. Knowing the dramatic back-story of Tallahassee could have brought a lot more to his character. He’s obviously distressed over the loss of his “puppy,” but this is only glossed over in order to make room for some more alleged comedy. The sisters also seem to have a story to tell, but it’s only briefly mentioned. With an inspired name like “Zombieland,” you can’t really expect a riveting story-line, though. This film is kind of like the twinkie that Tallahassee relentlessly searches for. It doesn’t have a lot of substance, but it’s immediately satisfying. This film has some humorous bits, a good cast and above average effects. There’s also a surprising and relatively funny cameo appearance by a well known actor. Here’s a hint, it’s not Tom Cruise. If the end of the world sounds like a solid premise for a comedy to you, “Zombieland” is worth catching in theatres.
