Shaun of the Dead

Shaun: [in concerned tone] Mum, have you been bitten?
Barbara: No, but Philip has.
Shaun: Oh, OK.
Ed: [concerned] What's going on?
Shaun: We might have to kill my step-dad.
Ed: Oh, OK.

Aaahhh, this was the good zombie movie I had been waiting for. It keeps the rules of the genre while not taking itself seriously. It's not always very subtle (fart jokes inside) but it's hilarious... You gotta love the moment when they just throw anything at the zombie-girl in the backyard, I just laughed out loud in my quiet train.

To sum it up, Shaun is a loser; a small employee with no other goal in life than to have his pint of beer every evening at the local pub with his best friend Ed who is even more a loser than he is since he's got no job, and just spend his days and nights squatting his friend's couch playing video games. Shaun's also got a beautiful girlfriend who's getting a bit tired of waiting for him to grow up and a mom with whom he has a complicated relationship.

And just when the world around him is filling up with zombies (?!), he decides to sort his life out.

Go see this movie for a good time. Period.
