Together, these movies are better than they are individually. Other reviews have covered the plots, so no need for me to rehash them.
"28 Days Later" could have been a great movie! This movie had a lot going for it, including a strong plot, good actors, decent effects, and interesting twists. Where it fell down was in the editing and roundabout storytelling. In short, the movie was disjointed and just too long.
"28 Weeks Later" is one of those rare sequels that is better than the first movie. This time there is less of an attempt to make a "deep" movie and switched to a standard formula of suspense and action (oh, and gore too). The film has a strong story line, good acting, good suspense, and great special effects.
Recommended for fans of the genre.
