Land Of The Dead movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Scott Von Doviak, Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com: Fails to deliver on its class warfare premise, fizzling out just when it should be heating up. Read more
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press: Land of the Dead is rich with political metaphors and social satire, none of which ever throws us out of the story or slows the breakneck pace. Read more
Rene Rodriguez, Miami Herald: Land of the Dead is a perfectly adequate horror romp, but it's hard to imagine anyone remembering it five years from now. Read more
Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune: Land of the Dead proves the most socially trenchant, irreverent and politically daring of the series, the one with the most food (and gore) for thought. Read more
Mark Rahner, Seattle Times: Land does feel less substantial than its predecessors at a scant 92 minutes ... But its novelty and nerve are the work of the master showing those feeding on his body of work how this zombie thing is done. Read more
Peter Hartlaub, San Francisco Chronicle: Land of the Dead is worth the wait, and dispels any fanboy concerns that the director was gone because he lost his mojo. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: Zombies just aren't that interesting as villains because they zombie ahead. Read more
Bob Longino, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: Land of the Dead doesn't lack for creeps. It's just likely not the kind of complete frightfest that will have you wanting to go back for seconds. Read more
Bill Muller, Arizona Republic: With Land of the Dead, Romero shows he still has the talent to scare us (and gross us out) in creative ways. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: This new movie looks and feels like someone else's better-made schlock. Read more
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times: George A. Romero's Land of the Dead reveals that Romero remains the master of a genre he reinvented. Read more
Bruce Westbrook, Houston Chronicle: Land's gruesomely creative zombie atrocities stretch an R rating's limits like a bloody tendon about to snap. Read more
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: The movie is listless and uninspired. Read more
Chris Vognar, Dallas Morning News: With all due respect to 28 Days Later and Shaun of the Dead, nobody goes zombie quite like George A. Romero. Read more
Gene Seymour, Newsday: Land of the Dead may not be the 'masterpiece' its promoters claim, but it is the work of a master. Read more
Lisa Rose, Newark Star-Ledger: In George A. Romero's Land of the Dead, it's depressingly evident that the horror pioneer has been surpassed by his imitators. Read more
Jack Mathews, New York Daily News: Land is pure entertainment and superbly well done. Read more
Manohla Dargis, New York Times: An excellent freakout of a movie. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: The metaphor, that a society that doesn't recognize the evil it is doing might be getting its comeuppance, would have been a cool subtext in a better movie. But this 'Dead' doesn't jolt, shock, scare or amuse. It just staggers along -- very, very slowly. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: There's a sense that Romero has run out of ideas and is recycling. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: It's good to see [Romero] back in the genre he invented with Night of the Living Dead, and still using zombies not simply for target practice but as a device for social satire. Read more
David Edelstein, Slate: Romero still has a gift for expressive carnage and for turning zombies into something more than mindless, festering, plague-spreading viscera-chewers. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Further evidence that you can reanimate the dead only so many times. Read more
Brad Wheeler, Globe and Mail: Land of the Dead is a horror flick, but not a screamy one -- the booming soundtrack pumps up the drama, and the gore induces squirms, but zombies more titillate than anything. Read more
Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star: Land of the Dead not only leaves you wishing Romero and his zombies might come back to feast once more, but that they'd take their time. Read more
Justin Chang, Variety: A tour de force of not only independent filmmaking but independent thinking, rigorously worked out on all craft and technical levels yet enlivened by its twisted engagement with the real world. Read more
Michael Atkinson, Village Voice: Romero's fourth-grade dialogue doesn't help matters, but anyone seeking out the latest achievements in cranial ruptures, spewing-blood gouts, and ground-beef spillage need look no further. Read more
Michael O'Sullivan, Washington Post: There's no real joy in this undertaking, which seems to prize grossing out the members of its audience above freaking them out. Read more
Stephen Hunter, Washington Post: The plot held no surprises and the acting no revelations. Read more
