"Zombieland: Double Tap" sets the bar low and steps easily over it, which makes it better than a lot of recent big-screen comedies.
Full reviewWoody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone and Abigal Breslin return to fight a new, evolved breed of undead in the sequel to the 2009 post-apocalyptic zombie comedy. Original screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick return, as well as director Ruben Fleischer.
