Making a sequel to a hit movie is hard enough. Making a sequel to a movie that went on to be considered something of a cult classic is even harder. Fortunately, for those of you who only want to know whether Zombieland: Double Tap is as good as the original, the answer, as far as I’m concerned, is yeah, pretty much. Is it better? No. (Head here for six things you may have forgotten about the original Zombieland.)
After the success of Zombieland, there was pressure for director Ruben Fleischer and writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick to try and deliver a sequel pretty quickly. That didn’t happen as planned. While it has been a long wait to reunite with Columbus, Tallahassee, Wichita, and Little Rock, the time is right, and the results are wildly satisfying.
Picking up 10 years after the first film, Zombieland: Double Tap sees the original quartet in residence at the White House. People have grown up, grown apart, and grown closer, but change is around the corner. Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) and Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) find themselves abandoned when Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) suddenly bail. The guys stumble across Madison, played by Zoey Deutch, in a mall, and the pair quickly become a trio, something that Tallahassee isn’t exactly delighted about.
Once again, the original cast works together flawlessly, and the schtick and chemistry are no less engaging or entertaining. Every single one of them nails it, but snarky Stone is a particular delight. That said, Zombieland: Double Tap belongs to newcomer Zoey Deutch. Her performance as Madison is absolute comedy gold and uniquely her. It is worth the price of admission on its own. How she makes a character that should be insanely annoying so utterly irresistible is genius. While there are some proper guffaws to be had throughout the movie, it is Deutch’s performance and delivery that get the lion’s share of the belly laughs. Her chemistry with the original cast is incredible, and together they only make each other’s best even better. Honestly, it is inspired.
Also joining the cast are Rosario Dawson, Luke Wilson, and Thomas Middleditch, who each bring something to the mix as the respective doppelgangers of Wichita, Tallahassee and Columbus, including a nice twist. I can’t help but feel that their presence, especially Wilson and Middleditch’s characters, in the trailers somewhat lessens their impact in the movie. That said, there’s still enough there to satisfy audiences and generate some solid laughs.
Here is a clip of the new cast if you want to see them in action:
Recapturing, replicating, and improving on everything the original movie brought to the table was never going to be easy. However, director Ruben Fleischer and the film’s writers have succeeded where others have failed with sequels to great original movies. Zombieland: Double Tap is a more than worthy sequel and companion piece to the original movie. It licks along at a brisk pace, which ensures that it is tight, lean, and the laughs and thrills come thick and fast. Additionally, the way the first film and its events are acknowledged here should be applauded. Each nod is done masterfully and is never hamfisted.
Zombieland: Double Tap is a riot, and a lot of that is due to Zoey Deutch and her character, Madison. While it doesn’t quite achieve classic status in its own right, when it comes to sequels that do the original film justice, it is up there. It’s worth the wait, your time and your money.
Oct 16, 2019 · Reviews Zombieland: Double Tap Review – Woody Harrelson is a National Treasure. The Zombieland gang is back a decade later -- and this sequel still manages to have fun after all this time.
Oct 18, 2019 · Ultimately, Zombieland: Double Tap is an incredibly enjoyable sequel to Zombieland that defends its existence by delivering a wildly hilarious and smartly crafted horror-comedy in its own right. There are plenty of references to the first film for diehard fans, but the sequel won't leave newcomers in the dark (in fact, it may not even be necessary to have seen Zombieland to understand or enjoy ...
