I thought it was better than 28 Days Later.
More action and better characters.

I also saw it. I liked it, I'll also agree that it was more action-packed than 28 days later, and very gory. Some parts there is a tension and you feel like you should be covering your eyes in case "something" pops out.  But I thought it was a good horror flick.

snipers - and then when they do come across a carrier, NO ONE is left to guard her?! eh?? I
Nobody except the medical lady knew that. She tried to get special stuff, but the head guy was like, "No, talk to her corpse..."
And they got in the car to get away from the gas/chemical weaponry, not the zombies.
Why was the dad following them, instead of ripping into them, like all the other zombies do to everyone?
Doyle was yummy. I was sad when he went up in flames.
And the teen chick's constant supply of heavy eye-liner annoyed me.
I think the Paris shot should have played after the credits, and the Channel crossing been the last shot.
Over-all, I liked the first one better.

I like this one better than the first, but I agree with this:

ok, so they didn't realize she was a carrier? so what. they're willing to kill 15,000 people if there's an outbreak, and they can't leave a single guard with the woman they have in observation?
The point I was making with the car is that, in the past, the zombies always punched through glass. This time around, they just sort of tapped on it like monkeys.

If they had left a guard with her, she wouldn't have been able to infect her husband who wouldn't have infected anyone else..who, well you get the idea right?  It'd be a 30 minute movie. In and out, we're done!
Why are we even analyzing a zombie horror movie????LOL. It is what it is, a zombie movie. A visceral, gory, zombie movie.hehe. Not a movie that would ever get nominated for academy awards, nor any kind of movie that could ever happen in real life. It's entertainment, pure and simple.

I saw '28 Days.' I assume '28 Days Later' was a sequel and this is the third installment?

28 days later was the first movie. 28 weeks later is the second movie. I'm assuming (the way 28 weeks later ended) there will be a third in the future...

So we reckon the kid carried into to gay Paree. Coughed on someone, and that was that.
I read the ending differently. In the final scene of them flying away it focused in, rather sinisterly, on the boy's eyes as he looked out the window (this seemed to be a bit of foreshadowing). Then (if I remember correctly) the next shot was of the inside of the empty helicopter crashed (it might have been splattered with blood, but maybe not, as I can't remember), and then the next shot after that was the final one of the zombies descending on Paris.
So I assumed that they got it wrong, and the family's blood didn't contain the virus, but rather it just delayed it, and the kid turned Zombie in mid air over paris, killed his sister and the pilot, and the rest was history. Either that or the boy, having only one half of his mother's genes, didn't fully have the resistance to the virus, and thus he turned into a zombie (in which case his sister might have survived the infection like her mother if she had the correct imunnities).
I actually like your reading better though just because it's happier (i.e. it assumes the kids might have survived), although the shot of the downed helicopter doesn't seem to suggest as much.
But it is kind of absurd that we are picking apart a zombie movie.
