This is a more than mildly entertaining film which will make you laugh out loud. There are little problems with it but it's still a must-see film. The gore is amusingly done and the dialogue is first rate. The actors are all from our fine British comedies and come together in a superb ensemble cast. The film is essentially British and so lacks that American fast pace but makes up for it with quirky originality and odd moments. The key joke is that Britain would be very similar if everyone were zombies and the film plays on the great wartime pragmatism of the nation. The last scene is utterly brilliant and is a great relief after all the obvious plot turns towards the end play out as you might expect any zombie film to. Just as we did with 28 days later we show that Zombie films are best when British.

By providing us not only with the political faces of these two great men but with their flawed human underbellies, the director drags us into the heart of the clash - the stylistic differences between Bed and Breakfast (Blair and Brown). What a performance.. Watch the news afterward and you won't know which program was the real one. 10/10
