28 Years Later (Danny Boyle, June 20, 2025) Movie • Page 13

Me every time an alpha rips a head off

 

seeing a lot of people complain about the ending but Jack O’Connell’s delivery of “hold…hold…uh-fucking-go” is one of my favorite line readings of the year

 

Jack O’Connell is having a hell of a year

 

Finally caught this. Loved it. I’m glad I read about the ending being polarizing but not knowing more than that. It was wild and I didn’t hate it. Honestly kinda assumed ATJ’s character was the kid from the beginning but I forgot his name so that was interesting. The alpha rippin Elk heads off and stapling them to trees is cool

 

The trailers really over sold this movie. The first 40mins or so were great and the rest just goes off the rails

 

It’s Jimmy Saville sadly

 

the explanation for jimmy saville being used makes sense and is good but i also feel like it’s something that won’t land for 90% of american audiences

 

Solid article about it 28 Years Later’s ending sets up a very controversial sequel

 

This totally caught me off guard. Was not expecting that. Ending would have worked better as a mid-credits scene but this still rocked.

 

Feels weird that all the discourse and memes I’m seeing about this movie so far are on IG and not Twitter or bluesky. I’m sure it’s out there but the IG algo is serving it up to me lol

 

Even Jodie can't stop me from being sick of the magical mental illness trope but everything else was great

 

But it was cancer

 

Danny Boyle-works for years to write a new touching story with a message into his zombie franchise

the Internet:

 

damn spoiler alert, I know um well she was wasted for 80% of the movie is that better

 

no. she is the main crux of no less than half the movie

 

The middle of this was too nonsensical for me but loved everything else. Even the whacky power rangers ending which I had no context around until now.

 

The middle was too nonsensical? What do you include as the middle?

 

Drugging the kid to make him chill about holding his mom’s skull in the near future after the kid had just made it his life’s purpose to save her.

Felt rushed and absurd.

 

that whole section was extremely moving. like shockingly so

 

hearing this in the movie made me and my buddy put on The Monitor for the car ride home

 

I’m glad that part hit for others. Didn’t land for me.

 

That was the nonsensical part for you? In a world with infected, massive alpha mutations, and a bunch of crazed people in jumpsuits killing people with choreographed moves to punk/metal music?

I understand not liking it, but saying it's nonsensical is just strange to me.

 

Thought this was great
