Train to Busan Review
Train to Busan is a south Korean film about Seok woo(Gong Yoo) a single father who has been focusing more on work than on his daughter Soo an(Kim Su an) and how when he takes her on the train so that she can visit her mother just as a zombie out break starts around Seoul. One person who has been bit ends up hopping on the train right before it leaves the station and soon there is a lot more than one zombie on the train and the people on the train have to fight to stay alive and out run and out smart the zombies while being trapped on a train for the majority of the film.
The thing that this film does very well is making you invested in the characters that the story is focused on the film revolves around the relationship between Seok woo and his daughter with him starting out as someone who is pretty self center but him become much less selfish as he fights for not just himself and his daughter to stay alive but other people on the train as well. Other characters that we follow in the film is this tough guy and his pregnant wife they are really sweet together and they were characters that you like right from the start, there's this high school baseball team and the one girl that came to cheer them on who you are always easy to like, these two elderly sisters and there's the selfish CEO that everyone ends up hating because he gets so many people killed with his selfishness. This film made me care about the fate of these characters much more than it made me anticipate seeing the zombies attack because it did a good job at creating characters for the audience to invest in rather than creating characters just to be killed off although most of them did die, I was sad that they died for the most part.
Overall I loved this movie it was a horror movie that I think feels more like a drama and I think this feel added a lot to the film and this is by far the best zombie movie that I have ever seen. This film I think had great writing, acting and directing and I would recommend that you should watch this movie. Please tell me your thoughts on this film in the comment section below.
