Shaun of the Dead

Last night I caught "Shaun of the Dead" with a couple of friends. The trailer had led me to expect a light-hearted poke at zombie movies and, for the most part, that's what I got. It's the ending where it all falls to pieces. It felt like the writers just ran out of jokes before then, and I didn't get much from the movie after that. The relatively light postscript does little to alleviate the situation.

2/5 - They tricked me, but I laughed

Mokalus of Borg

PS - There's nothing like a good ending.
PPS - I'd say wait for this one to rent on DVD.
