"Zombieland" is an awesome film. It is a story of survival, because America is being infected with zombies. There are only a few humans left in existence. The main character is Columbus, played by Jesse Eisenberg. He is very shy and lacks confidence, and he is only a teenager living in this terrible living environment. The only thing he is really looking for is a family. He meets a man named Tallahassee played by Woody Harrelson. Tallahassee is everything Columbus is not, confident, risky, and he is essentially fearless. They set out on a journey to find food and shelter. They eventually get to a grocery store. After killing a few zombies, a beautiful teen girl who tells them that her little sister has been bitten. The older sister is Wichita, played by Emma Stone, and the little girl is named Little Rock, played by Abigail Breslin. Columbus and Tallahassee find out that Little Rock is faking the whole time, and the girls steal the boys car, and take them hostage. Tallahassee is extremely mad but Columbus does not mind because he is usually alone so any form of human contact he loves. Also, he really likes Wichita. They start talking, and they tell each other their hopes or their families before zombieland. It turns out that Little Rock wants to go to Pacific Playland in California so they drive there. They make a pit stop in Beverly Hills at a celebrity's house, Bill Murray. And Bill Murray makes one of the funniest cameos in film history. They start spending time together and they realize in this time of crisis this is the only family they have.
This film is just a action-packed story. It is a great film that is somewhat the sequel to Adventureland but not really. This film is great because of the effects and the great cast. It feels like a zombie is going to eat our brains. Also, Jesse Eisenberg is great in every role he is a great young actor that deserves more recognition. Woody Harrelson is usually hit or miss but in this film he was great. Emma Stone is such a great young actress that is probably going to be sticking around in Hollywood. And Abigail Breslin is so young and she still has such great talent for her age.
Grade = 87/100 = B+
