Movie Reviews of Shaun of the Dead [HD DVD]
Movie Review: Get your blunt objects ready...
Summary: 5 Stars
I hate zombie films; I truly do. But I LOVE "Shaun of the Dead." Quite simply, because it's not *just* about zombies. It's about ridiculously funny, wayward 20-somethings searching for friendship, loyalty, and trying to do the right thing the day all of London gets attacked by throes of the walking dead.
As a massive fan of "Spaced," I was so excited when I heard Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright were making a feature-length film. "Shaun of the Dead" did not disappoint me at all. It kept me laughing long after the inital viewing, and I've even tried to incorporate some of its jokes into my everyday language (just as I did after watching "Spaced" several times). So I guess it's pretty clear that I consider Pegg and Wright comic genuises.
Even if you're not big on horror movies (believe me, I'm not), if you're a fan of British comedy (as I am to the nines), this is a must-see.
Movie Review: Entertaining!
Summary: 5 Stars
We found this after we thought "Hot Fuzz" was the funniest thing. So, based on the reviews, bought this and agree that it is funny!Movie Review: hands down, the best horror/comedy ever.
Summary: 5 Stars
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. it doesnt get much better than that. these guys have outstanding chemestry, which isnt surprising considering their history (Spaced. its a great British TV show, yet to become Region 1) anyway, what makes this movie so amazing you ask? its a great horror movie, and its a great comedy. most movies cant walk such a fine line so well. if it wasnt for the lead duo it would be a straigh up zombie fest, and a good one at that, but its the addition of the hilarious antics of Simon and Nick that push this movie beyond the pale of any horror/comedy to come before it.
basically the story focuses on Shaun(Simon Pegg) and his time leading up to, during, and after the outbreak. its hilarious watching how oblivious he is during the start of the chaos (ie "she's so drunk!") haha priceless.
the camera work, acting, gore effects, and anything else you can think of are all spot on. you couldnt ask much more of this movie. its pretty much perfect. so much care and attention when into every second of shooting this movie. you'll be finding new things to laugh about throughout the movie every time you see it. it gets better and better with repeated viewings.
best horror-comedy ever.
Movie Review: Greatest zombie flick ever...
Summary: 5 Stars
If I could give it 10 stars, I would. Though I am not a huge fan of zombie movies, it is easily one of my favorite movies of all time. Brilliant writing, timing and attention to details make this movie hysterical. Watch it repeatedly, and find jokes that may have came too fast or that are hiding in the background. Not only funny, but a brilliant commentary on how life can slip away from us if we don't make the most of it, as we become "zombies" in our day to day lives. Both hysterically funny and deeply symbolic, if it doesnt make you laugh and better appreciate your life, something is wrong with you.Movie Review: Shaun of the Dead, even if you own it in standard version, get the HD version as well, 10x better
Summary: 5 Stars
I almost didn't buy this movie since i already had the standard version. But at the price, i just couldn't say no. and wow, once i popped in the movie, i was greatly surprised. soo much more detail that i never noticed from the first one. This one really makes you want to go out and smash zombies heads in :D
buy it, you will not be disappointed.
