28 Years Later: The Bone Temple emerges as a surprisingly redemptive follow-up that transforms disappointment into appreciation, with audiences praising Nia DaCosta's bold directorial departure from Boyle's style while delivering the franchise's signature gore-meets-allegory formula.

jonathan fujiiJan 12, 2026Plays out almost like an anthology, two tales that inevitably collide into one another resulting in a (literal) dance with the devil. Its two prong approach is both the film’s curse and blessing, we lose out on the depth of Spike but in return are rewarded with Kelson.…

7.5/10 We got to see our goat Jim again :) and hearing the 28 days later theme in cinema was a treat
Clay Werner loved28 Years Later: The Bone Temple8.5 - My favorite of the series & it’s not particularly close. Even despite it being largely filler set up to close the trilogy. I enjoyed 28 Years Later & had it as the best of the series last year. Kelson was the best character of the whole set, & its emotion was genuine & its tension was real -…
Hank Leet loved28 Years Later: The Bone TempleThis film really blew the first 28 Years out of the water, I liked the slower, more introspective style of this one. How’s that?

6/10 Story not as strong as 28 Years Later but same visually, and a couple of nice surprises along the way
Expiette loved28 Years Later: The Bone TempleGod damn what a good movie! if you loved 28 years later I'm pretty sure you'll love the sequel!
Dark Sun liked28 Years Later: The Bone TempleNot as emotionally hard hitting as part one (for me), but a good sequel.

I'm surprised at how much I like this movie after being so disappointed in the first. I think I went in the first one with a certain expectation and it wasn't as action-packed as the previous or the original and that was a little bit of a disappointment and the ending…
SSSean SalasThis was prolly the best since the original. Gave me good ole 28 days later vibes which was awesome. the casting on it was superb also, specially Ralph Fiennes . Buy the ticket and go see it.

Phenomenal and very satisfying ending. I loved the characters, symbolism, themes, and what direction they decided to take with this film. Very excited for upcoming projects revolving around the 28 Days series :)
AGAnthony GonzalezThe rage epidemic devastation continues and surprisingly the ending is the most surprised scene that Cillian Murphy is still alive after all these years
NYNehizena Young-EdoIt was such a good watch. I hope to see more of Nia Dacosta’s works because she is talented as a director.

The new film, evocatively shot by Sean Bobbitt, feels like a trivial, if entertaining, diversion on the way to a more substantial closing fall.

This is an exciting, forthright, energised – though very gruesome – film in which there is real human jeopardy and conflict. Non-zombies are more cinematic.

If there’s one misstep to “The Bone Temple,” it’s the ending, which features a cameo that alters the tenor of the picture’s emotional hostility.
