And that's about it as far as the plot goes. Staying in the White House, everything is going fine, until Little Rock breaks off from the group and heads to a supposed zombie-free commune, so the others set out to find her. 10 years after the events in the first film, the quartet is still together – there's the neurotic but sweet Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg doing his Jessie Eisenberg thing), the crass but caring Tallahassee (a wonderfully acerbic Woody Harrelson), the sarcastic Wichita (a dead-pan Emma Stone) and the laidback Little Rock (Abigail Breslin doing a lot with the little she's given).

Directed by Ruben Fleischer (who helmed the original) and written by Rhett Rees and Paul Wernick (who wrote the original), along with Dave Callaham, Zombieland: Double Tap may not take too many risks, but it's a fine companion piece. It doesn't do a whole lot that wasn't in the original, but the irreverent sense of humour, sharp character interactions, and shedloads of charm are all present and accounted for.
