The world according to Dan » comedy http://danielfisher.name My take on the things that shape the day Thu, 26 Aug 2010 01:26:12 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 Zombieland….. good clean fun! http://danielfisher.name/2009/12/zombieland-good-clean-fun/ http://danielfisher.name/2009/12/zombieland-good-clean-fun/#comments Tue, 01 Dec 2009 21:41:29 +0000 Daniel http://danielfisher.name/?p=134 Ha! Of course when I say “clean” I mean blood, guts and gore… but it’s comedy, not horror and we all need to laugh a little more these days.

I was lucky enough to catch a sneak preview on Monday night with my brother down at the Jam Factory. I went in without too many expectations…. a “Zombie killing comedy”…. no academy award nominations were likely. However, I was surprised by this movie. A good mix of “in your face” and subtle humour. Woody Harrelson’s line “that’ll do pig” is still playing out in my mind 2 days later. If you’re a fan of “Shaun of the Dead”, or similar comedies, go and check it out.

Woody H plays his part well, as does Jessie Eisenberg (The Hunting Party / The Village). All up, a good young cast held together well by Woody and a very cool cameo by Bill Murray.

Not in the league of the awesome comedies of late, such as “The Hangover”….. however a few laughs, just don’t take it too seriously, sit back, relax and enjoy.
