This is not meant to be a complicated movie, it is meant to satisfy with a serviceable plot, characters you can care about and some hilarious zombie killing.
I liked the addition of Madison, I thought she was great. It can't be easy to pull off dumb blonde that outrageously and still hit all your comic marks that well.
Maybe critics didn't like that the SJW asshat got told he was going to be the first to die. Or maybe they genuinely see bad where I see hilarious.
Currently two of twenty-eight negative reviewers have bothered to say what they didn't like about the movie. What does that tell you about whether this is being review bombed or not?… Expand

I see that critics are not giving this nearly the same praise as the first, and why should they. BUT.... with that said, this is no ordinary sequel. Double Tap has a certain satirical self-awareness that yes, it is a sequel, and kinda spoofs all the proper tropes and gags. This is a film with no ulterior motives other than to keep giving what the audience of the first film would want. That would be zombie killing, quotability and great pop culture ref gags. Zombieland Double Tap is a sequel yes... but it's not one that diminishes the work proceeding. I'll go a notch higher with this forgiveness in mind and call it 7/10. Woody always delivers. And I must admit, there are a few LOLs to be had. It's a sequel that works, and works well. With that said, if you're looking for something heady or thinky.... you're in the wrong place. But you WILL have fun!… Expand

Zombieland: Double Tap is directed by Ruben Fleischer, same director of the first movie, and written by Dave Callaham, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, And starring Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin.

Zombieland:Zombieland: Double Tap is directed by Ruben Fleischer, same director of the first movie, and written by Dave Callaham, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, And starring Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin.

Zombieland: Double Tap takes place a decade after the first one, and in the sequel the four slayers must face off against the many new kinds of zombies that have evolved since the first movie, as well as some new human survivors. But most of all, they have to face the growing pains of their own snarky, makeshift family.

Zombieland was a great movie, I think it's one of the best zombie-comedies, it was really funny, and well-crafted with amazing performances and great cameos!

Zland: Double Tap is another fun movie to add to the first one, it's still funny, charismatic, has good cameos and some cool zombie-sequences.

The performances are great, everyone gave a great performance, all the new characters are welcome, but Breslin on the other hand isn't that good as she was in the first one, she's by far my least favorite part of this movie, I think she did a bad job in this movie, but fortunately she doesn't have lots of scenes as she did in the first one.

Madison's character, played by Zoey Deutch, is that dumb character that could annoy some people, she's so cliched, but still she has some fine laughs during the movie, but most of her screen-time, I couldn't help it, I was so annoyed of her character.

This movie is as simple as the first one was, and that's really good, because what made the first so one a cult classic, is that it wasn't serious nor grim, it was simple, funny and violent... The plot, which is a subplot in other movies, is delightful, it was really good to see them all reunited again on the big screen!

Woody Harrelson is once again the MVP of this movie, just like how he was in the first movie, he's so funny and his character is still the one that has depth, even if it's lower than what we saw in the first one, but it's still so good to see that character again, and to see how they developed him, because sadly, there isn't that much of development in this movie over the first one when it comes to characters, there's even another runaway from the same characters, but I loved what they did to Tallahassee, and I'm so happy to see more of him!

Fleischer did another great job directing this movie, he made some cool shots, for instance, there's a shot when a couple of moneybags were shot, and money started to flew in the air, and the character just passed beside it and didn't care, because it's Zombieland, what could money do to them? I think he really did a great job capturing this apocalyptic world, just like how he did in the first movie.

There isn't really that much to say about a movie like this, it's just a zombie-comedy movie, and it did that really well, but it's not as cohesive as the first one, nor as good as it was, but still really enjoyable!

The reason why the first one works better than this one is that the first one wasn't that much about zombies, they were there, but the movie focused more on our 4 main characters, and showed us how they're acting during those situations, this one here, cared more about zombies, and it gave them more character than what we needed.

When it comes to flaws, beside the stuff I said above, I think it's not as sick, weird or silly as the first one was, it got a little bit self-aware, and that's not what we wanted to see from a zombie-comedy.

Still Zombieland: Double Tap is a an enjoyable movie, if you liked the first one you would probably enjoy yourself in this one too, even though I would watch the first one over this one.

I'm gonna give Zombieland: Double Tap a B.

Zombieland 2 is a strange beast that tries really hard to recreate the magic of the first film but ultimately does what every sequel does, adds far too many characters and copies some of the original plotlines. Not bad, just not great.

Twinkies would be long gone by then. They are not going to last several years. That ship has sailed.

If you go into this movie looking for a repeat of the first, you might be disappointed, but if you go with an open mind, you'll love it. That's how I feel at least. Seriously... My jaw dropped to see all the negative user reviews. I was completely surprised by them.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Wonderful movie overall! The characters really expressed themselves in this movie and expanded their relationship. So much deeper meaning in this movie than people perceive it to be. For example the lack of Twinkie’s on this movie refers to Tallahassee finding his true family in Z-Land. Along with his constant hate for vans also is a reference from the first film to when he expressed his anger. One more interpretation I picked up on was his despise for the pacifists is due to the loss of his family from the apocalypse. The only way he can express his emotion is through violence. Just something to think about but definitely a movie to enjoy!… Expand

The sequel remains really funny, including the return of the funGiven that this was ten years apart from its predecessor, I feared that this movie would suffer the far-separated comedy sequel curse, but my doubts were quickly shaken.

The sequel remains really funny, including the return of the fun narrative cutaways and the, sometimes creative, use of text for the rules of surviving the zombie apocalypse.

The returning four main characters remain great. Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) and Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) are a great odd-couple duo with excellent chemistry. Emma Stone as Wichita continues to do a great job as the one who reacts sarcastically. I love new character Madison (Zoey Deutsch). She is a bimbo/airhead type, but she has a specific quirkiness that makes the character distinctive. She always has the most random lines.

The plot itself is a little lightweight; the movie mostly runs on the jokes.

Overall, I had a good time with this and recommend it.… Expand

The zombie killing is kick ass, and it continues the trend of the first movie with the oddly compatible characters who have become somewhat of a family. A family of misfits to be sure, which is why they each start straggling due to doubts about what and how they want to continue their lives in Zombieland.

So that's the plot; trying to keep the family together. And I love that it isn't focused on just one of the characters wanting to go. They basically all do! So they have to go on a journey to rediscover the glue that keeps them together. And that's one helluwa ride to be part of!

I don't think there's anything about this movie I didn't like. Maybe a few scenes here and there seemed a tiny bit off. But overall, it was just a great zombie flick with some hillarious situations and a plot that kept me interested. It's not the deepest plot mind you, but why does it have to be? It works!… Expand

The original Zombieland was smart, funny, and self-aware, it didn't take itself too seriously, and it had heart, but it was hardly a film crying out for a sequel. But a sequel we have, and boy is it one of the most unnecessary I've seen in quite some time. However, as unnecessary as it is, it's also extremely enjoyable. It doesn't do a whole lot that wasn't in the original, but the irreverent sense of humour, sharp character interactions, and shedloads of charm are all present and accounted for. Directed by Ruben Fleischer (who helmed the original) and written by Rhett Rees and Paul Wernick (who wrote the original), along with Dave Callaham, Zombieland: Double Tap may not take too many risks, but it's a fine companion piece.

10 years after the events in the first film, the quartet is still together – there's the neurotic but sweet Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg doing his Jessie Eisenberg thing), the crass but caring Tallahassee (a wonderfully acerbic Woody Harrelson), the sarcastic Wichita (a dead-pan Emma Stone) and the laidback Little Rock (Abigail Breslin doing a lot with the little she's given). Staying in the White House, everything is going fine, until Little Rock breaks off from the group and heads to a supposed zombie-free commune, so the others set out to find her.

And that's about it as far as the plot goes.

Although 10 years have passed and the zombie-movie landscape is very different, one of the sequel's most successful elements is that next to nothing has changed; in essence, it acknowledges the gap precisely by ignoring it. So, Columbus's opening voiceover specifically refers to the long break as he thanks us for choosing Double Tap when there is such "a wide choice of zombie entertainment" and Madison tells Tallahassee his catchphrase is "very 2009", but the film as a whole feels as if it was shot immediately after the original.

This factors into the performances as well, insofar as Columbus, Tallahassee, and Wichita are all broadly similar to how they were 10 years ago. Little Rock has changed significantly, but that's as much to do with the fact that she was a child in the original and is now a young woman. This lack of character development may sound like a bad thing, but really, the familiarity of the characters and their group dynamic has its own inherent charm, we welcome it because it's familiar, with the cast essentially doing the same things they did in the original. Speaking of performances, I have to mention Zoey Deutch as Madison, a millennial bimbo who's been holed up in walk-in freezer. She completely owns every scene she's in. Sure, the character is clichéd as all hell and, on paper, she should be all kinds of annoying, but that she isn't, is a testament to Deutch's warm performance, finding genuine pathos amidst the perpetually peppy and cheerful high-energy ditz. She also has great chemistry with the original cast, especially Harrelson.

In terms of problems, as mentioned, the film doesn't do a whole lot that wasn't in the original – the characters, the narrative beats, the group dynamic, the humour; all are pretty much the same. Indeed, as much as I enjoyed the film, I would have liked to see it take more risks (there's certainly nothing here to rival the inspired Bill Murray cameo). Because of this blanket similarity, there is a sense in which the sequel isn't really its own thing, it's defined primarily by what the original did rather than forging its own path. Another problem is that it fails to do much with an interesting set-up, which sees women chaffing against traditional gender roles and the identities conferred on them by men. Once the gang end up on the road, this theme is pretty much forgotten (even with the introduction of Nevada (Rosario Dawson), a tough-as-nails Elvis aficionado, who seems more like a man's idea of what a tough woman should be than her own person). There are also more than a few clichés, primarily in relation to Madison (as blond a character as you'll ever meet) and the one-note Berkeley (Avan Jogia), a weed-smoking gun-hating hippie.

Zombieland: Double Tap is undemanding and doesn't completely justify its own existence, but it also does justice to the original, and never for one second does it take itself seriously. The effortlessness with which it slots into the original's groove is either funny or poor writing, depending on your perspective, but the film is smart enough to acknowledge that it feels slightly out of place in 2019. And if a little of the spark has been lost, the warmth, the characters, the jokes, and the playfulness make up for it.… Expand

Muito divertido, muito engraçado, muitas mortes de zumbis e muito sangue exagerado, isso resumi Zumbilandia: Atire Duas Vezes, que é com certeza melhor que o primeiro

Zombieland: Double Tap simply is...the sequel to Zombieland. It's nothing new or overwhelmingly impressive, nor is it executed flawlessly.

It's nothing new or overwhelmingly impressive, nor is it executed flawlessly. Yet, I really missed this crazy group of characters navigating this crazy zombie-filled world, and this film brought me back to them. Although making an effort to be bigger and better, it doesn't seem to go as far as to lose meaning or value- save for a few moments. Some time I'd rather spend with old characters was given to new, but the movie still doubles down on the personalities of these familiar characters and their struggles within their post-apocalyptic family dynamic. Where we start out they've learned how to live in Zombieland and they've been living well. That is, until we dive into their internal struggles coupled with a brand new physical threat. I was often amused by the new characters introduced and their respective places in the story, even when they're certain gag characters I didn't care for at first which, surprisingly enough, lead into my favorite action sequence in the whole movie. Even with an ending that in my eyes was rushed to reach that "bigger and better" sequel finale, it never lost me. At times, it does try to be explosively more epic than what came before, but that being said, remember: this is Zombieland, not World War Z. Mass amounts of zombies aren't going to tumble over a wall and a slaughter fest of epic proportions will not ensue. Or, maybe, exactly that does happen... but if it does it will be Zombieland style, not big budget zombie action flick style. Let's not forget how relatively minimal the first film was when it came to action. At the end of the day, as long as Double Tap doesn't lose sight of itself, I'll be all for it and despite going in nervous, I was indeed all for it. At heart, this is a movie about family and how they've grown together, then apart, and how they find their way back to one another. It was a fun movie with the action, the laughs, and the heart of the first. It was just Zombieland. It didn't need to be anything revolutionary or intricate, and it by no means is. It just had to embody what came before. It was a good time capitalizing on what made the first so impressive even when it threads the needle of sacrificing depth for surface. For fans of the original, there is surely enjoyment to be found in returning to Zombieland once again. The former holds a special place in my heart and this can't quite harness that same lightning in a bottle, but it comes close enough that I'm it glad exists. Even if I did have to wait a decade...

And, THAT credit scene was spectacular.… Expand
