Doomsday
Back from seeing it in one of my rare trips to the theater. And considering that the price for a drink has gone up, while the sizes have gone down? They're going to continue being rare...
Anyways, Doomsday. The set up is that a horrible plague sweeps over Scotland and so the entire country is quarantined, with the English rebuilding a new 30' metal version of Hadrian's Wall with auto-cannons. But when the deadly virus breaks out in the slums of London, the government has to send their most bad-ass one eyed maverick cop in to catch a survivor. They give her a crew of soldiers and doctors and a 48 hour time limit to find a cure or London is dooooomed...
And once beyond the Wall they face cannibal punkers and evil Rennies. And the Death Bus. And an exploding gimp. And punker mosh pit/cannibal bbq...
It was pure awesome. My roommate disagrees. He hates it. But then he likes National Treasure and Nightwatch so his taste is in question...
