We're in  Lindisfarne: briefly; we are in this new world and is location where we meet this small family unit; such as James [Aaron Taylor-Johnson:] he is the figurehead of this family and his scavengers/hunts things from the mainland; he also has one son by the name of Spike [Alfie Williams:] he is 12 years old and in his father's eyes, he has come of age to go scavenging/hunting even though the age is meant to be 15 years old; but throughout this film Spike will find out more than what is suitable for a 12 year old to know; he comes-of-age much quicker than anyone had seen coming.

Generally speaking: the script; for now all I can say is this; it probably isn't what you were expecting, if you haven't done the research [which before going to see this film I hadn't;] so it probably won't make any sense to you, just for the record I keep saying probably, because I like to hedge my bets that at least some of you have done your homework. So based on the idea of me not having a clue what is/was happening, I was confused amongst other things. So based on this; I found the framework and pacing of this 115 minutes film to be mystifying, but that to one side for a minute; something good [at some point or another I will address the mystifying.]

Action, art and comedy; the action sequences are the kind of things that you expect from this rage zombie/horror franchise by now; so all I can point out is where these zombies got burnt like crisp; as it shows real creativity and something that could possibly happen in this world and then we have the very final action sequence; this was high octane, amusing action that I can point out in this content; but unfortunately I can't say too much more than that; if or when you see this film it will make perfect sense to why I can't. On one hand; I can't stand the momentarily pause sequence in some action sequences. Now if you have been following me long enough you know more often than not like 99.9% of the time [so it is incredibly rare] I liked these slow motion effects, so you can imagine when I experience is momentarily pause sequences I hate them with a passion; just no thank you I will now move on to on the other hand the scenery, landscapes and everything else; look amazing, they did a fantastic job of bringing this world to life and obviously updated since were last here and finally we don't have too much in the way of comedy, but we do have one or two moments; such as seeing the effects of Botox for the first time and consequently insulting another person's girlfriend.

Character developments and performances; the character developments; bringing with are a bit confusing; based on the fact that we begin in one place and then, within a little while we get transported somewhere else, then for broadly speaking without giving too much away they are mostly good and then; we have the absolutely tone deaf character developments which absolutely destroyed this film for me [in the final section of this content I will discuss this and what I have planned to do about it] and for the performances; they are good, on reflection as I have already made reference to the coming-of-age should be highlighted as a positive over than that the ones that stood out for me are Aaron Taylor-Johnson; he puts in a performance of somebody that resembles normalcy for this world and is by and large trying to do the best for his family and the community. Ralph Fiennes as Dr. Ian Kelson: he is a excellent doctor, that may have an unfair reputation but then again his appearance doesn't do anything to prove anything to the contrary and for Fiennes he puts in a very typical faultless performance as the doctor as nothing really fazes him.

This film receives: 2/10, this film is poor; this film is going to need a lot of explanation, so consequently I will have to do a separate piece of content for that and when it is done I will leave it at the bottom of this content as well, so it is up to you if you want to view it or not. But what I can say for now is as I have indicated in this content on some level this sequel/instalment has problems, so much so that when this film does have some positives; they get completely out balanced by the negatives. This film does have some extra bits and pieces including right at the end of the credits as well. This film also has some awards accredited to its name; 3 Nominees which include but not limited to Digital Spy Reader Awards 2024 Movie Award Most Anticipated Movie of 2025 5th place
