Zombieland: Double Tap
Zombieland returns 10 years later. The belated sequel does not add much that is new but it is still fun.
Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) still has his rules about zombies. However there are new variants of zombies. Homers who are dumb. Hawkings who are intelligent. Ninjas who are silent and deadly. Then there are the rumours of the T-800, who are difficult to kill.
Redneck zombie blaster, Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), Columbus, his girlfriend, Wichita (Emma Stone) and her younger sister, Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) all reside at the crumbling White House.
However Wichita and Little Rock are restless and one day they set off. A forlorn Columbus who hoped to be engaged with Wichita finds bubly airhead Madison (Zoey Deutch) at the mall. She was hiding in a freezer compartment and they quickly become a couple.
When Wichita returns because Little Rock has gone off with a druggie hippie called Berkeley. They go on a road trip to find her, their destination is Babylon a post-apocalyptic hippie community. They first have a detour to Graceland where Tallahassee hits it off with Nevada (Rosario Dawson) a no nonsense zombie killer just like him.
Soon the zombies arrive and these guys are lethal.
This is very much more of the same but a weaker story. Madison is a good addition with her bubbly personality but not much in the brains department. The boys encounter mirror images of themselves in Graceland. There is a star cameo in the mid end credits.
The film aims to be goofy fun and that is just what it is.
