I was ready to laugh at this. A magical pair of jeans passed around four friends? But what sounds like an incredibly silly premise is just a framework for some pretty good acting and surprisingly nuanced storytelling (though perhaps the less is said about Alexis Bledel and her storyline the better). The film reminded me how much I miss Amber Tamlyn on screen, and how both America Fererra and Blake Lively are better actresses than their leading shows might give them credit for.

As nutty as a Charlie Kaufmann film but with a lot of heart, anchored by a sweet and nuanced performance from Will Ferrell. Beautifully integrated infographics for the designery-minded.

The only film that can make zombies into a comedy while still remaining true to the concept of zombies.

There's one scene where the leads of the film meet up with another parallel group of survivors of the zombie plague. Nearly ten years on, the scene is near a who's-who of British comedy.
