Doomsday

[Falconeer]

1997: Escape from NY meets 28 Days Later meets Mad Max with various homages and references to Braveheart, A Song of Ice and Fire and I don't know Flesh and Blood?

The trailer doesn't give this movie's hilarious lack of shame any justice, and kinda spoils the fun. My advice: skip the trailer and rent Doomsday now! It's too silly to be missed.

Fake edit: the director is the guy behind The Descent and Dog Soldiers. It's a British thing.

Is this like Sean of the Dead and spoofy?

[Falconeer]

Shawn of the Dead is a great movie. This is not. Just such a weird mishmash...

[Samwise]

I agree with Falc's assessment, although I'm not sure if I would say it's too silly to be missed.  You probably won't regret Netflixing it, but I would not say that your life is incomplete if you haven't watched it either.

[Falconeer]

Yeah, no. I take the exaggeration back. By no means unmissable. But it's worth a few belly laughs because of what I call completely self-aware lack of shame.

[Margalis]

The first half was enjoyable cheese but once they left the city for the magical kingdom of Sir Malcolm it totally went off rails and never recovered.

[Falconeer]

Oh, the Bentley...

I would personally avoid spending ones time watching this movie.

It tries to take itself seriously for far too much of the film. Only to fail miserably and just seem stupid.

Then it turns around and goes full retard. Which is funny, but leaves you wondering what the fuck the other 85% of the movie was trying to do.

What a lovely documentary about the people of Scottland.
