Though the premise of Zombieland is nothing new (a band of plucky survivors joining forces against the undead), this modern zombie movie is a polished take on the genre. The four leads (Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone, and Abigail Breslin) all do well in their respective roles, but it’s in the wit and humor of the interpersonal relationships that the movie really shines.
