Edgar Wright's first major feature film 'Shaun of the dead' is despite the clear influences from other horror movies a brilliant standalone film which launched the careers of the director and two stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. A great mix of comedy, style and horror the relatively quick film is a joy to watch, truly brilliant

Shaun of the Dead is one of the most perfect comedies ever. All the jokes are hilarious, The characters are likable, All the decisions the characters make are sensible, It has surprisingly affective drama, and it also works as a zombie movie. I have no doubt that this will become a comedy classic in no time. All the actors are great. It's great to see visual comedy in a time like now where so little comedies use camera placement, lighting and music for endless jokes that you can only pick up on your second or third watch. Also (just as I said) this movie is incredibly rewatchable. It's not like your standard comedy where once you get all the verbal jokes, there isn't anything to laugh about on your second watch. I've seen this movie three times, and all three times I found something new I never noticed the first time I saw it. I recommend this movie to mostly anyone and I give this a 9/10

This movie is kinda the start of non told series of movies which is the result of cooperation between"Edgar Wright" and "Simon Pegg" , The next movie in the series is "Hot Fuzz" and then "At World's End".It's better not to compare any of the movie in the series with each other, because they are separated story wise. But the similarities include, the same directing team, almost the same actors team and the same genre.I saw it as a sarcastic movie about the Zombies idea, the scenes and the comedian parts weren't that funny. But the good thing that they kept everything simple, the idea is simple, the make up and eye lenses of zombies are simple, the killing scenes and the places included are simple, so everything was clear to the point.Finally, it's a good comedy zombie movie that can get you out of a bad mood although it has some points that may get you bored.

I don't know why this movie is so highly rated. In my opinion this is a very ordinary movie, nothing special. I didn't even find it funny.
