@nicksflicksfix@SonyPicturesAUS@SonyPictures@28YearsLaterMov It feels pretty unique and original to me. A bit like when 28DL came out. Hard to achieve that level of originality but this film has loads of original and creative stuff going on. I loved it!
28 YEARS LATER was already a 4.5 star movie for me but now from what I’m hearing, BONE TEMPLE will be my first 5 stars of 2026. What a start to this franchise revival
Nia DaCosta has delivered a real banger with #28YearsLater#thebonetemple
A terrific, impressive, heartfelt movie, it moves the story forward while expanding the landscape.
The cast is superb, the premise delivers, and the film is a real treat.
Hugely enjoyable and gripping.
28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE deepens the franchise’s lore with new questions and some long-awaited answers in the quietest yet undeniably most brutal installment of the series. Ralph Fiennes is truly phenomenal here, adding new poetic layers of complexity to his character, culminating in a blazing, heavy-metal-level display of madness and ecstasy that will have his fans rockin’ out and applauding. Jack O’Connell, meanwhile, is disturbingly hilarious as the unhinged St. Jimmy, a man fully convinced he’s the devil’s own son. The film’s atheist overtones and its ongoing exploration of individualism versus nationalism and religious extremism are more provocative than ever, heightening both the beauty and the savagery of this world as we move, hopefully, toward a third chapter in Spike’s story #28YearsLater #TheBoneTemple #TheLeakedScreenings
Nia DaCosta takes the reins of the #28YearsLater saga and delivers a staggering entry in #TheBoneTemple.
Jack O'Connell & Ralph Fiennes deliver phenomenal performances in this gloriously weighted story with more heart & heft than guts & gore. DaCosta delivers! @SonyPicturesUK
#28YearsLater#TheBoneTemple is far and away my favourite film of the franchise. A bold, brutal, and brilliant examination of the controlling power of cultism and religion, told through the Jimmy’s, and led by an enigmatic and evil Jack O’Connell.
But then juxtaposed by a beautifully human continuation of Dr. Kelson’s and Samson’s story, examining the power of emotional connection, with an equally beautiful performance from Ralph Fiennes.
Nia DaCosta doesn’t shy away from the brutality either, with some of the most cringe-inducing violence of the series taking place in this film, with the opening scene alone shockingly setting the tone. DaCosta also isn’t afraid to dial up the insanity to 11, with a set-piece towards the end of the film that’s one of the best things I’ve seen this year!
I’ll say it with my chest… 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is one of the best horror movies of the last decade. Gnarly, intense, and surprisingly tender. Ralph Fiennes, Jack O’Connell, and Chi Lewis-Parry, take a bloody bow. @SonyPicturesUK#28YearsLater#TheBoneTemple
#TheBoneTemple runs laps around #28YearsLater, which is really saying something. Unexpected, uncomfortable, unapologetic. I’ve long thought the big screen zombie story was played out - this franchise has given it a millennium of momentum. Make these movies forever.
#28YearsLater#TheBoneTemple is phenomenal. It takes the story from the last film and evolves it in new, exciting and emotional ways. Funny, gory, quietly profound and very entertaining. O’Connell, Fiennes and Erin Kellyman are standouts. For the love of god green light part 3.
So I loved #28YearsLater#TheBoneTemple a brutal examination of faith, control and fear. It’s surprisingly funny while also maintaining absolute tension throughout. I think people will be shocked by how weird it gets. But I loved it. DaCosta nailed it.
whatever doubts you had, if any, can be put to rest.
some all-timer needledrops in this. sauce and balls galore. jack o’connell rightfully gonna get his flowers for this but ralph fiennes man oh my god.
how’s that?
I think I can now say I saw 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE a while ago & it is a very entertaining & worthy sequel to the first film
The film also includes some of the best bonkers shit you’ll find in a film next year, I want one of these films annually for as long as I live
#28YearsLater: The Bone Temple - Yet more evidence that when you let Nia Da Costa cook, great things tend to happen. So much to love, with Ralph Fiennes walking away with the MVP and tearing the house down with one especially insane sequence that rightfully drew applause. Go see!
