Oh, this is Train to Busan level.
Kinda blown away by this. I expected it to be scary, which it is, and funny, which it is. I knew Danny Boyle would push the envelope with cameras and his editor, which he always does. I didn’t expect to weep uncontrollably, but I did.
It explores the inevitability of death (and love) but also masculinity, indoctrination, and militarism. It makes this world SO big and rife for more installments in this franchise. This is the mold for a legacy sequel.
Part The Last of Us, part The Road, a dash of Heart of Darkness, but all awesome.
Expecting 5 stars on a rewatch.
