What more to say that hasn't already been said? Train to Busan is one of those films that transcends its genre. Yes, it's a zombie film, but at the same time, it's so much more than what it says on the tin. Gorgeous cinematography and an excellent screenplay combine with a stellar cast to result in one of the best films to come out of South Korea. It's always a pleasure to see Gong Yoo and Ma Dong-seok, and there are inspired performances by Jung Yu-mi and the young Kim Su-an, too. The latter, in particular, shows maturity beyond her years to really embody the daughter of Gong Yoo's workaholic, fund manager character. So, prepare yourself for a rollercoaster ride of emotions. Your next move is to watch Train to Busan.

so good, makes you stress out at parts and you get really mad but its a really good film i recommended it to a friend. i advice you not to watch if scared of zombies or have a weak stomach, considering their make is so good and they used a lotof fake blood. overall everything in or to do withthis movie is good. definitely is a five star movie

Great movie! This is the third time watching this movie, first zombie movie, but one of the best ones I have ever seen. The actors, the cinematography, the child actor, the story line, the action, suspense is just fantastic. Such a well crafted movie, with great editing and attention to detail. Only shame is the soundtrack, normally Korean productions have fantastic music, this was not bad but was not great; having said that the movie never relied on its music anyhow - from start to finish really gripping. Unexpected ending!!
