Yeah it's pretty intense. The sequel doesn't catch the same intensity as the first though except for the beginning of the movie, but the sequel is entertaining.
Just finished watching 28 weeks... agreed, that opening sequence is intense. Probably the best part of the film.
As a sequel they've gone over the top on the action, not stuck true to the more chilling 'it's the end of the world' feeling the first one had. 'Hollywoodified' maybe.
For that reason, I'd rather put it up against other action/zombie/horror movies like Dawn of the Dead, or The Crazies. Compared to them, it stands out.
