Concrete Utopia Reviews
IGN Movies
Katie Rife
This polished, character-driven drama is a whole lot of movie, in both good and bad ways.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
It's a fractious, blood-soaked drama about the will to survive that feels like "Earthquake" crossed with "Lord of the Flies." What's gripping is that you watch it and think, "If I were in this movie, what would I do?"
Los Angeles Times
Carlos Aguilar
Though the humor and acting in "Concrete Utopia" can occasionally feel broad, Lee's viscerally monstrous performance grounds a high-stakes drama.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
Its lack of originality is at least partially offset by its gripping depiction of intolerance and exclusion as impediments to survival.
Slant Magazine
Ross McIndoe
This darkly comic and consistently revealing tale suggests that, without four walls around us to prop them up, most of our morals would crumble into dust.
Nuha Hassan (Medium)
Nuha Hassan
Concrete Utopia is an entertaining movie that explores the themes with surprising twists and turns by examining humanity's perspective of good and evil people.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Peter Rainer
It's a powerful movie, very well-made and well-directed with a contemporary resonance.
RogerEbert.com
Monica Castillo
"Concrete Utopia" is more ambitious than its execution, but nonetheless sustains its suspense with an emotional journey into the depths of what scarcity can do to humanity.
The Atlantic
Shirley Li
Concrete Utopia traces familiar themes of class warfare -- think Snowpiercer in a building -- but sets itself apart with impressive production design, inventive set pieces, and an ensemble of memorable characters.
indieWire
Christian Zilko
While the film lacks the originality of many of the films it tries to emulate, it's still a solidly crafted reminder of the absurdly tragic fate that our current housing system appears to be guiding us towards.
HuffPost
Candice Frederick
Concrete Utopia remains disturbingly and crushingly human.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Shot through with shards of dark humor, "Concrete Utopia" observes how quickly we dehumanize the needy when they threaten our survival - and asks if we can be blamed for doing so.
Screen Zealots
Louisa Moore
"Triangle of Sadness" meets "Lord of the Flies" in this entertaining post-apocalyptic disaster film that explores the class warfare and unchecked tribalism that's rotting the heart of modern society.
Under the Radar
Kaveh Jalinous
While it does feel long at times, especially given its 130-minute runtime, the film's captivating narrative and skillfully constructed action sequences consistently make it difficult to look away from the screen.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
For those who don't understand that THE WALKING DEAD is about the living monsters rather than the undead ones, director Tae-hwa Eom and co-writer Lee Shin-ji's CONCRETE UTOPIA might be able to drive the point home.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Um is interested in how such landscapes seduce us into particular ways of thinking.
Spectrum Culture
Jesse Doppelt
Though it may not be particularly inventive, Concrete Utopia is a careful and poignant addition to the apocalyptic utopian subgenre.
Collider
Chase Hutchinson
With great production design, compelling performances all around, and a sufficiently layered script, it asks more soaring questions about humanity's capacity for violence when pushed to the brink just as it builds its broken world from the ground up.
The Film Stage
Alistair Ryder
I can understand exactly why it was selected as South Korea's Oscar entry, hitting on international anxieties about the continued resurgence of far-right movements with cultural commentary that is broad but never derivative.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
…both a disaster movie and a Serlingesque exploration of human behavior in an apocalyptic situation.
