The "Zombieland" films are definitely NOT movies for film snobs. They are mindless fun and violence...and this is NOT a complaint. As a tiny bit of a film snob myself, I do sometimes love seeing something this mindless....and it keeps me from becoming too pretentious. I strongly recommend this second one...because it's much of what you got in the first one and about as good.

Unlike some sequels, this one, fortunately, was able to bring back the old cast. Now, ten years later, the group faces two problems....the group starts to dissolve into individuals and there is a new threat....worse, stronger and smarter zombies. Can they all manage to get back together and work together to defeat this new batch of baddies?

By the way, if you do see this film, a couple things you need to know. First, it's very, very, very violent. Yes, at times it's almost cartoonish violence, but it has a lot of blood, guts and yecch! Second, do NOT turn the movie off before the credits roll...please watch all the credits. You'll see why.

DOUBLE TAP is a ten-years-later sequel to ZOMBIELAND. I hated the first film and this follow-up, which offers more of exactly the same, is similarly routine and unenterprising. Jesse Eisenberg and Woody Harrelson are back in another road trip tale involving kooky assorted characters and random zombie action, but it's a typical slacker comedy and typically unfunny as a result. The stars try hard with irreverent one-liners and comic interplay, but the jokes fall flat time and again and none of the situations along the way are any good either. When the best part is a mid-credits joke sequence with a cameoing Bill Murray you know your film's in trouble.

It's been a few years. The gang decides to set up camp at the White House. Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) is tired of Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson)'s fatherly advices. Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) proposes to Wichita (Emma Stone) which only drives her away. The sisters leave and Little Rock finds pacifist Berkeley (Avan Jogia),a boy at her own age. Columbus finds clueless Madison (Zoey Deutch) who had been hiding in a freezer at the mall. Little Rock runs off with Berkeley and Wichita goes in pursuit joined by the boys and Madison. Tallahassee encounters fellow Elvis fanatic Nevada (Rosario Dawson) and doppelganger Albuquerque (Luke Wilson). Columbus has his own doppelganger Flagstaff (Thomas Middleditch).

The original is irreverent fun. This one has the gang returning along with some very funny new side characters. This might have a few more laughs than the first one. I really like Madison and I wish she stayed with the group from start to finish. She's great at needling Wichita and the Uber bit is hilarious. The funniest bit has to be the introduction of Albuquerque and Flagstaff and I laughed hard. I would do some different things with the ending but I do like the Buffalo Jump. Overall, this is a great sequel which is just as much fun if not more than the original.
