There's no Zombieland thread yet? Inconceivable!
Awesome. Hilarious. Loved it. Woody Harrelson rocks.
What say you guys?

In a year of truly great movies, I think Zombieland still managed to crack my top five. I loved every minute of it. Even with word of mouth inflating my expectations, it was as good as advertised.
Tallahassee and Guy-Who-Isn't-Michael-Cera were most excellent leads and Emma Stone was totally hot (which makes me feel weird because she was born in 1988). Maybe most astonishingly, though, a Breslin child did not send me screaming through the aisles in rage and terror! In fact, she was kinda sweet and funny. Go fig.
If I had to pick out a negative: I wish it was longer. Then again, I wouldn't really want them artificially inflating it, either, so maybe that doesn't really count.

Due to massive amounts of road tripping I haven't seen it yet, but I'm chomping at the bit. Watching this movie will be the first thing I do when we get back (after I wake up from the fatigue coma from a week and a half on the road and traveling the entire state of California).

I keep remembering little gags that flew by me in the theater, but are creeping back into my consciousness. I laughed (hard) in traffic today recalling Little Rock explaining Hannah Montana to Tallahassee.
And LOVE the Bill Murray worship. I won't spoil it, but when they hit the part with the vacuum cleaner and the chandelier, I thought I was going to die.

And LOVE the Bill Murray worship. I actually thought the Bill Murray part was the weakest in the movie. Ten minutes of fan worship, one funny scene (the one you mentioned), and then he's gone. Totally underused. It made me think about Tom Jones in Mars Attacks: say what you will about the movie, but TJ kicked tuckus in that. Great movie, though. Zombieland, I mean. Not Mars Attacks. Although Mars Attacks wasn't bad. I'll stop now. |

Yep. Bill Murray was very underused, and (overall) his scenes were the weakest.
AND I STILL LOVED THEM.

yes, Yes, YES YEEEESSSSS!!!!!! I saw it last night, finally, and I am determined to own this as soon as possible. I loved all of it, all of it I tell you!
I agree that the Hannah Montana part was really great. In fact, the entire dynamic between Little Rock and Tallahassee was terrific.
This was one of the funniest, best movies I have seen this year.
