So, Finally saw Shaun Of The Dead - GoFuckYourself.com

It was okay. There were some moments that really cracked me up but think it suffered a little bit from a year's worth of hype from my friends. It has a lot in common feeling wise with the UK tv show Spaced which isn't that much of a suprise since they are all in it.

So I guess I give it 3 out of 4 stars just for being different but not as laugh a minute as I thought it would be. The record scene was as good as my friends suggested though and the use of queen during the one scene towards the end was classic.

That's too bad- I thought it was awesome- but then again, no one hyped it to me.

I thought Shaun of the Dead was a great movie. I didn't hear that much hype beforehand, though.

last year when it came out in London my friends went to a special showing with the director and wouldn't shut up about it for atleast a month.

It wasn't bad and I loved the very British feel of it but just wasn't AS funny as I had been led to belive but there were moments that were good. I would still see if over 99.9 percent of hollywood rubbish anyway.
