Jean-Paul’s Rating: 3/5 stars

Bottom Line: Has zombies for mindless gore. Has Emma Stone for sarcasm. Has Jesse Eisenberg for neuroticism. Has Abigail Breslin for rebellious teenage drama. Has Woody Harrelson to tie them all together.

It’s ten years later and your favorite city-of-origin named heroes are back and they’re as fun as they ever were. “Zombieland: Double Tap” is a completely unnecessary movie that really adds nothing that the original “Zombieland” movie didn’t already have, but it’s still fun in a manner that is unique to movies and that makes it worth seeing. The plot revolves around Little Rock (Abagail Breslin) chafing at not having anyone around that is her age and Wichita (Emma Stone) chafing at her relationship with Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg). Since this is not one of those movies where the plot is at all meaningful to the enjoyment, think of it as a device for causing random adventures to happen and four actors to have fun together for an hour and forty minutes.

The zombie fighting quartet is joined by a fifth person this time around. That’s how you know it’s a sequel. Madison (Zoey Deutch), a blonde bimbo who has miraculously survived the zombie apocalypse all alone, attaches herself to the very willing Columbus after he loses Wichita. Let’s just say that Madison is in the movie for exactly the right amount of time before she gets too annoying. She’s a fun addition, but in a one-trick-pony sort of way and they don’t beat that pony till it’s dead.

It’s hard to tell anyone to go see this movie in the theater. It’s a fun little romp, but nothing you can’t get from the comfort of your own home while watching the original “Zombieland” again or for the first time. That said, it has been ten years and the movie is still fun on its own and there’s not really much else playing right now so why not? Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go do some cardio.
