'Zombieland: Double Tap': Film Review

opens with a gentle bit of fourth-wall breaking, in which our narrator and protagonist Columbus acknowledges that we viewers have many options when it comes to zombie entertainment, and he's grateful we've chosen to return to his particular apocalypse. It's as if screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who since penning 2009's, hope some of that film's wink-and-nudge magic will rub off here. But Eisenberg is no Ryan Reynolds, and the film largely abandons this tack.

We meet up with the last film's quartet around the time they decide to set up camp in the White House. Since America pretty much ended for them in 2009, there are no jokes to be made about that house's current real-world occupant and the zombie hordes who support him. Instead, our heroes amuse themselves with the rare art and artifacts to be found in the national archives. Columbus even finds the Hope Diamond, and uses it to ask Wichita to marry him.

Bubbly, brainless and suffering a terminal case of vocal fry, Madison might well have been a throwaway dumb-blonde caricature. But Deutch brings her to life, scoring laugh after laugh while the film maneuvers her into position as a foil for Harrelson.
