Where to Watch Train to Busan
- jackmeatDecember 17, 2024My quick rating - 7,7/10. Wow. This has to be one of the best zombie films to come along in a LONG time. Easily in the conversation of top 10. The Korean masterpiece does what very few zombie films will do. You genuinely care about the characters involved. This includes rooting for some, and you will downright also be pulling for others to become dinner. When a zombie infestation breaks out in Seoul, survivors are forced to survive upon a train on its way to a possibly safe city, Busan. How this outbreak occurs is slightly alluded to and really is unimportant to the overall struggle you are to bear witness to in survival. The attention to detail and creativity used to keep the action going while being stuck on a train for the majority of the movie is a treat to behold. The acting does seem to be well done and though I watched a dubbed version I checked the subtitles and I believe they were even worse to use with the Korean original speech. Either way, the acting looked good and felt convincing enough. The script took care of that. Ma Dong-seok was a nice addition to the cast here. An absolute must for fans of the genre with the style that is presented and scenes that just demonstrate the magnitude of full out zombie invasions instead of 5 or 6 of the undead roaming around town.
