Unlike a Utopian novel in

    I must admit‚ I approached this film with a certain amount of trepidation. Maybe it was because I was expecting what would basically become a cop-film parody version of Shaun of the Dead‚ with the same jokes and‚ on the whole‚ the same themes. Or maybe it was because I feared the team behind that first excellent parody would not live up to expectation and‚ possibly‚ overstretch themselves. Whatever the reason‚ I will say now‚ all my fears were dispelled even if my wallet felt a little
