The strongest film of the week was perhaps the most surprising entry in Criticker’s year-end list of 2009′s Top 20: Zombieland. Honestly, I just saw this myself and was left completely unimpressed. It started out funny, but got worse and worse, and by the time they expected us to laugh just because of Bill Murray’s presence, I threw my hands up and stopped paying much attention. But hey, decide for yourselves… I’m definitely in the minority on this one.
