“Zombieland” has the perfect recipe for an action-packed adventure and is full of laughs and excitement.

Knowing the world is filled with zombies and that there are only a few humans left, being prepared is the only option to live another day. Because of this, following the rules is also very important. But the fun does not end there. Running from flesh-hungry zombies  is just one of the main objectives needed for survival these days.

So load up your weapons and get ready for the ride- it’s a wild one.

A horror comedy that focuses on two men, Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) is a goofy kid with a set of rules that actually work against the flesh-eating zombies. Tallahassee, (Woody Harrelson), a zombie-killing, hard-nosed hillbilly who has an obsession with Twinkies. Eventually, the two team up and come across con artists who also survived the zombie mayhem: Wichita (Emma Stone), a charismatic tough girl, and her baby sister, Little Rock (Abigail Breslin).  They both trick Columbus and Tallahassee several times by stealing their vehicles and weapons and taking off, but when they encounter each other again, they join forces and must rely on each other.

This film gets many laughs as the zombies die in ridiculous fashions, whether they get shot to death or get hit over the head with a banjo. Eisenberg’s timidity makes his character that much more likable because of the way he handles the zombies. Harrelson, however, shows his bad side, and that he takes no crap from anybody, especially the zombies who get in his way. His mission is simple: Kill the zombies and find a Twinkie. The world might be rigged with zombies, but if there is a craving that one must desire, that certainly is a good one.

This concept alone is the enough to fuel a hilariously bloody and outrageous film.

A great cameo involves Bill Murray, who is covered in makeup and looks like a zombie – this is by far the highlight of the film. As Tallahassee is hanging out with Bill Murray and watching “Ghostbusters” in his home theater, in comes Columbus, who mistakes Murray for an actual zombie and shoots him by accident.

The film reaches its climax in a theme park, where all the zombies are shot at in a final showdown. You can guess who got the worst of it.

Overall, “Zombieland” is a funny film that offers plenty of laughs, making the experience intriguingly genuine, and so outlandish that it almost forces itself to be a guilty pleasure. It’s not a long film, but it’s enjoyable nonetheless and worth the watch.
