The film’s main bite, is that it has the peacekeepers as both the most benevolent and brutal ones in the story, which might be taken as a comment on topical events in Iraq (but things were just too fuzzy to take anything in this flick seriously!). A more reluctant hero is the family-man chopper pilot, Flynn (Harold Perrineau), who arranges to rescue them in Regent’s Park.
Doyle (Jeremy Renner), a sniper with a conscience, act to save Andy and Tammy. But Scarlet (Rose Byrne), a medical officer interested in doing further research on the virus, and Sgt. The army goes to ‘code red,’ which means that they aim to wipe out the entire population with their snipers. In any case, the virus isn’t quite as extinct as the smug army thought (think Bush and Mission Accomplished!) and this calls for drastic measures. Their mommy is found to be a carrier of the virus, but because of her ‘special blood’ she doesn’t become a zombie. Well, the kiddies climb on a moped and flee the safe Green Zone to visit their cottage in a desolate London, and find mommy miraculously alive and that daddy is a cowardly liar. When their children, Andy (Mackintosh Muggleton) and Tammy (Imogen Poots), return from a school trip in Spain to the east London ‘Green Zone,’ they reunite with their father who explains their mommy died and he couldn’t help. But their peaceful survival is shattered when zombies attack the cottage and the cowardly Don, thinking only of himself, escapes alone leaving his wife to inevitably die. In a farm cottage, Don Harris (Robert Carlisle) and his wife Alice (Catherine McCormack) are holed up with four other survivors. “28 Weeks Later” opens seven months after the tragic virus outbreak and after most of the UK population has been infected and reduced to slobbering rabid zombies who can run like sprinters. When the time is ripe, the shell-shocked survivors are supposed to repopulate the island. There’s now a U.S.-led NATO force on the British mainland and they have established a maximum-security Green Zone for the quarantined survivors who have been decontaminated.
