I felt the same about 300. I mean Gerard Butler is all very pretty, and well, but it kind of had no plot.

I've been very afraid to see 28 Weeks Later, because 28 Days Later is just about one of the most brilliant films there is, and I was fairly certain any sequel made would not live up to it. I'm glad you gave that little review; now I know not to bother watching it.

Well, I will say that it's still a lot better than a lot of horror movies. It's just when it's judged against its predecessor it's not so brilliant.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I knew 28 Days Later had Cillian Murphy, but I didn't watch it because...well, I don't do horror.

But I don't think I can possibly turn down a movie with Cillian *and* Eccleston. Oh, cruel fangirl fate!

Egads, a Watchmen movie? No. No, no, no. Leave my precious Watchmen alone!

He doesn't show up for ages, but it's certainly a movie that does not disappoint Eccleston fans. You should totally got out and find a copy to watch.
