It got me hooked and I completely lost track of time. By the moment the final scene introduced the transition for the next installment, I was ready for one more hour but got surprised by the end credits instead.

The main problem for me is the resolution of the main plot, where Ralph Fiennes be like "So you've got cancer. I've got an available slot for assisted suicide just right after. Do you want me to schedule it?" which I find completely ridiculous. They could literally have brought way better closure with a few minutes of additional, well-used runtime.

Anyway I didn't know going into this that there were sequel(s) scheduled, so I found it weird that there were seriously world-building the different sub-types of zombies, but now I know.

The editing and music are ADHD-powered as usual for Danny Boyle. Can be repulsive but I can enjoy.

I had a good time.
