"....but life is about more than just survival."
This solid sequel was just about worth waiting ten years for. The returning cast and team deliver more of what audiences enjoyed about the first film, and it is enjoyable to see the core cast inhabiting those characters and relationships effectively again, with good additions from Zoey Deutch as the airheaded Madison and Rosario Dawson as the tough, self-sufficient Nevada. The laconic tone is recreated nicely, and the balance between comedy and zombie-horror again plays well, but even with the addition of a 'new' type of zombie this film inevitably lacks the freshness of the original. The scene shortly into the end credits and a short coda right at the end are worth watching if you are a fan of the original film.
