There's about 32 or so reasons why Zombieland's a winner (apart from the obvious). And that's just taking from the (partially revealed) list of survival rules of Columbus, not to be confused with the city in Ohio, but rather the protagonist we know only as Columbus because that's where his character is headed.
Perhaps because of the saturation of the zombie-film market that preceded it, Zombieland is a refreshing take with the right amount of humour mixed with survivalism in the face of the undead. With style and humour to spare like this, I'm quick to forgive the plot holes and those logic-defying moments of "What were they thinking?" actions of otherwise intelligent zombie-killers. To be fair... the stupid and/or panicky choices that put our heroes in mortal peril is the basic staple of the genre. We ARE talking about a zombie movie after all.
This flick has repeat viewing written all over it, even if only for the opening scenes of zombie chaos. Or to put it another way, it's a rockin', blood-splattering, good time with a cool soundtrack to match. Popcorn movie fun at its finest.
