(His scene chomping down on live lobsters at a fancy restaurant, which I could have sworn I praised in my original review, remains one of the funniest moments in blockbuster cinema from the 2010s).

Finally there was "Venom" (2018), which as I noted in my review at the time felt more like a body horror movie about an antihero than a traditional superhero flick, and was anchored by a fantastically off-the-wall performance by Tom Hardy. "Gangster Squad" (2013) was a stylish and fun historical crime film that moved at a brisk pace. "30 Minutes or Less" (2011) was a smart and dark slacker comedy that one could have imagined coming from Kevin Smith in his earlier days if he had had a decent-sized budget. The original "Zombieland" (2009) was, like this one, a quirky and clever comedy that built a convincing fictional world without seeming pretentious or heavy-handed.

He has only directed four films before this one, but each was a winner even if the critical consensus didn't reflect that fact. Special credit should be paid to director Ruben Fleischer, whom I gradually realized while watching this is becoming one of my favorite working directors and may be one of the most underrated directors of action films and comedies working in Hollywood today. Equal gusto is invested into the performances by the new characters played by Deutch and Jogia, as well as a possible love interest for Tallahassee named Nevada (Rosario Dawson) and two characters who seem like doppelgängers for Columbus and Tallahassee (Albuquerque and Flagstaff played by Luke Wilson and Thomas Middleditch, respectively). The material is strong on its own, to be sure, but it's elevated by the fact that Harrelson, Stone, Eisenberg, and Breslin all seem to be having a blast. While it's impossible to say for sure that they were having a blast on set - for all I know, they secretly hated each other and were passive-aggressive the whole time - this film gives off a cheeky, borderline giddy vibe that makes it as weirdly endearing as the previous one. The film benefits from the fact that the performers seem to be having a great time, as they did in the first go-round. Like the first "Zombieland" movie, the appeal of this one is squarely centered on three things: Lots of gory and well-choreographed zombie fight scenes, intelligent dialogue, and those idiosyncratic meta moments when Columbus participates in world-building to his audience by explaining the "rules" of surviving Zombieland or (as a new twist in this installment) identifies the different types of zombies that one might encounter. After several weeks pass, Columbus has seemingly moved on with a cute new girl named Madison (Zoey Deutch), but both he and Tallahassee are drawn back into the world of adventure when Wichita returns and informs them that Little Rock has run off with a new hippie boyfriend named Berkeley (Avan Jogia) and needs to be rescued. Things seem to be settling down for them until Columbus scares Wichita with a marriage proposal that prompts her to scoop up her sister Little Rock and abandon both Columbus and Tallahassee. Picking up 10 years after the events of "Zombieland," the new film begins as Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg), Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), Wichita (Emma Stone) and Little Rock (Abigail Breslin) move into the abandoned White House in the post-apocalyptic zombie-filled world that Columbus has long referred to as Zombieland. If you liked the original movie, you'll enjoy this one. "Zombieland: Double Tap" is one of those sequels that feels like a logical extension of its predecessor.
