This movie was terrible and doesn't come close to the original.
Eh, smells like a nerd post.
That had the best cast, best acting, best direction and best production value of any Romero connected Zombie movie by a long shot.
Shaun of the Dead and 28 Days are probably it's only competition for best Zombie movie ever but for different reasons.

I wear no Romero-colored glasses. Outside of Night and Dawn, Romero has been a pretty bad filmmaker (and, yes, I have seen the putrid Survival entry).
The fact remains, the original Dawn can't be touched in terms of action, tone, comedy, and satire.
The new Dawn is a sad imitation that uses budget and cast as a way to gloss over its lack of substance and ideas. I've just never understood why people thought this film was so good. And I've seen it several times. Because it's newer and had a higher budget with more contemporary effects?
