Some find the satanic cult elements and cartoonish villains detract from the film's sophistication. [1][2] Ralph Fiennes' performance is widely acclaimed as magnetic and elevating the material. [3][4][5]

Back in 2002 an 18 year old sat in her local cinema and viewed one of the best zombie films of her generation. Danny Boyle's 28 Days Later changed the game and kickstarted a true juggernaut franchise. Little over 23 years later, a slightly older and still horror obsessed girl sat in a cinema to see the next installment. However this wasn't just a continuation. Nia DaCosta has created a thrilling, dramatic cinematic …

I'm not quite as taken with "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple" as I was with its immediate predecessor. The considered, intelligent, insightful aspects of this film, embodied in Ralph Fiennes's Dr Ian Kelson character, are undermined with the re-introduction of the stabby satanic fashion refugees from the closing scenes of the last film. I was critical of their rather ridiculous Clockwork …

I don’t often walk out of a theater with the only thought on my mind being ‘that was so good’ but here we are. I struggle to care for the messages in most zombie flicks (I know, the rage is different than the undead), but this blossoms into something so rich and so nuanced that I was smiling from ear to ear as we dive into how humans cope with the world and how their perspectives manhandle their approach to …

Boring temple. Half the movie isn't the guy they talk about. He's cool. The kid is cool. The mom is cool. Why do I have to watch the rest? Would have rather the focus been on resolving whatever situation with the guy they stole the baby from. Could have been better and shorter.
How this was made: an AI model (deepseek-v4-flash) read 34 of the 261 public posts we collected about this film and wrote the summary, likes and dislikes, citing the posts behind each point ([n] opens the post). A second AI pass checked every statement against the posts it cites; anything it could not match was removed, and code removed any statement with quotation marks, numbers that are not in the posts, or unattributed claims about people. The split is counted from the posts’ own ratings. Generated Oct 10, 2026. Method
Critics, per Wikipedia
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple grossed $25.1 million in the United States and Canada, and $33.4 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $58.5 million. In the United States and Canada, The Bone Temple was initially expected to make $20–22 million over the four-day Martin Luther King Jr. Day holiday weekend. However, it underperformed in the United States, earning $13 million over the three-day weekend and an estimated $15 million over the four-day holiday period. This represented a weaker US domestic opening compared to its predecessor 28 Years Later, which debuted to $30 million over a traditional three-day weekend. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 91% of…

Reactions
60 of 281 · most liked firstMy last note about 28 Years Later and Bone Temple is that Ralph Fiennes can do anything. What an actor. Handsome and charismatic enough to anchor a movie like Quiz Show, doesn't mind doing a 10 minute cameo in things like Hurt Locker and stealing the show, and is absolutely fearless about his body.
neutral · AI labelView post →I've been researching this as a special project for about two months, and I can't say anything conclusive yet. but I've grown convinced there's a dick joke to make about the title of the new 28 Years Later movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →At the cinema to watch 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. Is this movie as good as everyone is saying? Let's find out.
neutral · AI labelView post →I might well be the last American to see it in a movie theater but I was really blown away by 28 Years Later. Not perfect, but I respect that it's such a big swing in so many ways and as with the previous films in the series there were moments where I found it unaccountably moving. A Real Movie.
positive · AI labelView post →'28 Years Later: The Bone Temple' releases in exactly 28 weeks 🧟♂️ • Jack O'Connell and the Jimmy Gang will 'dominate the film' • Cillian Murphy, Ralph Fiennes, Aaron-Taylor Johnson, and Alfie Williams will all reprise their roles • Film 'is about the nature of evil'
neutral · AI labelView post →26 Days Later is a post-9/11 movie. 28 Weeks Later is a post war on terror movie. 28 Years Later is a post COVID movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Ralph Fiennes says bold horror films like ‘SINNERS’ and ‘28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE’ are helping keep the genre alive. “I thought ‘Sinners’ was a wonderfully inventive film. You have to keep reinventing and discovering... otherwise, we’re quick to smell the cliché.”
neutral · AI labelView post →Dr. Ian Kelson from the '28 Years Later' films might be my favorite movie character from the last 25 years. It's a huge task to portray the embodiment of the sort of selfless humanism that gives hope in a hopeless situation, but Ralph Fiennes breathes absolute life into him.

neutral · AI labelView post →Still thinking about 28 Years Later. I think it's maybe the only zombie movie that can rival the original trilogy of Romero films, specifically Dawn and Day. Can't wait to see it again.

neutral · AI labelView post →I reviewed 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE, which I loved. An unconventional and intellectually curious zombie movie which resolutely refuses to dehumanize its zombies. Nia DaCosta's direction is gorgeous. www.patreon.com/posts/151136...

neutral · AI labelView post →28 YEARS LATER absolutely rips. It’s a surprising twisty bit of heartfelt genre storytelling. My review via @ebertvoices.bsky.social.
positive · AI labelView post →New post! I explore the cultural shift from the post-apocalyptic to folk horror trends over the last 20 years and how this shift reflects changing attitudes toward social upheaval. One dark desire underpins both genres: accelerationism. 28 Years Later is a film that captures our historical moment.
neutral · AI labelView post →Chi Lewis-Parry tells us that he and Ralph Fiennes are now close friends after playing the Alpha Samson and Dr. Kelson in the ‘28 YEARS LATER’ films. “We’re troopers, brothers in arms. It’s a genuine love, and that is [what you see] on film. Our communication together is real.”

Thanks the maker 🤩 Both 28 Years Later movies are among my fav genre movies of the past year.
positive · AI labelView post →Nia DaCosta put her whole foot into 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE, a gnarly post-apocalyptic bloodbath coated in nihilism. My review via @ebertvoices.bsky.social

neutral · AI labelView post →Hey I just need y'all to know that I'm still pissed about how hard we failed 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE. Movie rips, is directed by an exciting director, and continues a story everyone was hot on when it was two dudes running the show. Mad as hell.
positive · AI labelView post →My main takeaway from 28 Years Later is that I could watch a film entirely consisting of post-apocalyptic Britain with a banging soundtrack very easily and I get annoyed when plot gets in the way
positive · AI labelView post →#NowWatching 28 Years Later I'm about an hour in and am enjoying this immensely (taking a snack break). I don't get the criticisms I have read online and heard in a few podcasts. Thankfully I disagree with all of those criticisms and am loving this More zombie films please 🧟 #FilmSky #HorrorSky 📽️

neutral · AI labelView post →28 YEARS LATER absolutely whips, and is also the closest thing I've seen to a movie that's edited like a Mike Mignola comic
positive · AI labelView post →With Danny Boyle’s 28 YEARS LATER now playing in theaters, we’re diving into what makes the latest chapter in the post-apocalyptic series so explicitly and terrifyingly British, including THAT ending.
neutral · AI labelView post →28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE was an INSANELY interesting movie. Holy hell.

neutral · AI labelView post →“28 Years Later,” a new film in which the U.K. remains under quarantine following a zombie outbreak, is “a sharp, unmistakable jab at Brexit isolationism,” @justincchang.bsky.social writes.
neutral · AI labelView post →“28 Years Later” is a delight. Fun, tense, occasionally poignant, with images never before seen in a Hollywood studio film. What else could you want from big budget sci-fi? www.inverse.com/entertainmen...
positive · AI labelView post →"28 YEARS LATER PART II may even be more divisive than the first movie."
neutral · AI labelView post →28 YEARS LATER is wild, somewhat unexpected movie, that reframes a classic story structure into something much more... well-observed? Thematically poignant? The more I think about it, the more I love it. www.patreon.com/posts/131953...
