Train to Busan (2016)

This is one of my all time favorite movie! I've watched it maybe... 5 times! An each time i find something new!
I wouldn't say this is a horror movie, because you don't exactly feel scared when watching it. I felt mostly sadness and frustration, hoping for all of them to make it in the end. Everything happens unexpected and therefore you cannot look away. Time flies by and therefore it will come as a big surprise when the movie ends. For 2 hours, my heart kept beating in a quick pace even until the last minute! It's such a beautiful story, not only a plain zombie movie. The actors played their part unbelievable well, from the little child to the halmonies - even the zombies played their part exceptionally! This is a movie I will always watch again and again, so go watch it if you haven't! It's marvelous!

I don't know where to begin. This film is an absolute masterpiece. From the director to the actors, each part of every scene was incredible. At first, I was a little hesitant to watch this. Boy, am I glad I did!

I thought it was going to be your typical horror movie- zombie outbreak, zombies kill everyone, hero saves the day and all is well. This was so much more than that. I grew attached to each character in this film. I felt their pain, their anger and their sadness. It was a heartbreaking scene for me when Jin Hee got bitten. I could feel the devastation of Yeong Guk, and as cruel as this sounds, I'm sort of glad they went out together- it's how their story ended. They never officially told each other about their feelings, so having them die together showed their love.
Also, when Sang Hwa and Seo Woo I felt the pain Sung Kyung and Soo An. Even I started sobbing when Seo Woo 'jumped' of the train. In the end, his daughter realised that her father loved her and got to say one final goodbye.

Every moment had me hanging in the edge of my seat, and although I already know what happens, I will definitely watch this again. I have no doubt that I will be just as nervous of heartbroken when re-watching it for the fifth time!

Korean movies never fail to make me cry. I actually liked the movie more than I thought I would. Zombie-theme movies always end up being cringy, but it was greatly executed. There were some awkward cgi moments, but the story and acting really helped carry the idea.

Acting was top-notch! As always Gong's acting is superior. I was really surprised by the little girl's acting. In the beginning I felt she was too stiff, but wow, towards the end you can see how much she had developed her character.

Loved the cast. I literally recognised every major character because I had seen them all in other projects they were in. I really felt for them. I love that everyone's characters were given a chance to shine. I really thought the movie was onky going to focus on the father and daughter. Happy I was wrong.

Will for sure recommend this to a friend because it's honeslty a pretty good Korean movie. ????????

Damn this movie exceeded my expectations . seriously what a brilliant and nicely done movie , from the beginning till the end kept my attention and there is no single scence that is boring , it's not only about Zombie but it's something very deeper , it's about helping others and being unselfish :) like how in this life there is some people that can help you with what ever they have and other kind of people who care only about themselves . this movie made feel a connection with every character , it's so damn amazing it's a masterpiece

Ok, I'm just too sad to write a review about it.
Kidding, but not kidding at all. Actually, I'm really sad.

The story is just perfect.
Ok, it is another Zombie movie or some stuff, but everything seems new.
The acting is great, cinematography is just awsome in here, the music also made me so tense. I WAS SHAKING WHILE I WAS WATCHING THIS, OK?
I don't know why, this is not horror at all, but I felt fear. I was covering my self with my blanket.

By knowing what happens, I would not have the same feeling that I had while watching it for the first time, but still worth to rewatch. I loved it.

TRAIN TO BUSAN AND MORE!!!

4 years late in watching this spectacular movie which was launched in 2016. Better late than never! It will go down in history as a classic. Good to watch any year, any season.

Who can believe that a Zombie action movie can be so on point to build a story around a relationship between father and daughter. My heart pounded throughout the movie, and yes, my heartstrings were played to the maximum. Tears could not be contained.

I will not write too much about the movie itself as there are many reviews already. However, the show truly was a breakout movie for Korean Movie Industry as it gross more than USD100 million world wide. Directors from USA complimented Korean Director Yeon Sang Ho for a job well done with story, good script, production and talented cast. "It is so good, it cannot get any better".

Gong Yoo and Don Lee immediately became more popular in the international market.

Fighting!! Gong Yoo and Don Lee. K-Movies Forever

From the very beginning you already know that it's not the usual "zombie movie".

It's not a real horror, you won't jump out of your chair (this doesn't mean that it's not fraightening). Instead this film is more like a drama (unless you have a stone instead of your heart, you're gonna cry your eyes out).


The characters are well depicted and, as the film goes on, you'll came to know them better and empathize with them.
All the actors have done an amazing job, especially Gong Yoo. Seok Woo (the main character) develop during the film. In this situation in which life is put on danger, he came to understand what really matters and what he did wrong. I can definetelly say that the father- daughter relationship is the key of the whole story.

The zombie apocalypse bring out the better and the worse of everyone. It's in unexpected situation that you came to see how someone really is.


It's one of my favourite movie ever. I screamed and cryed for almost two hours and it's worth it.
A MUST WATCH!
I recommend it to everyone, even those who don't particularly like zombie movies.
I will defenetely rewatch it!

A thriller I never knew I needed!

Wow, just wow. This thriller was something!

The storyline was actually realistic, not some fairytale scenario where things magically work out just because but everything that happens has reason and emotions tied with it. When I say I'm ready to rewatch it NOW, I'm READY!

Acting - what a phenomenal group of actors. They all gave a STELLAR performance, but the CHILD ACTRESS - omg chills, right down to the last scene. I love that I saw some familiar faces in this movie like Gong Yoo, Choi Woo-Shik, Seok-Yong Jeong, and Jang Hyeok-Jin!

This is a must-watch

The idea of a Zombie Apocalypse is an idea most people anticipate, and dream about in a dystopian reality. Train to Busan brings this idea to life with marvelous cinematics, and amazing screenplay. The actors Gong Yoo, and Ma Dong-Seok (a real life Hulk) show us how amazing it is to survive a massive virus outbreak, where humanity fights for survival. The story is gripping, yet compelling, and conflicts the audience with different expressions of humanity, and the concepts of human emotions. The film portrays stories of love, anger, fear, selfishness, and selflessness in a magnificent, and creative fashion. Overall, the zombies are realistic, and the story is thrilling, and entertaining, a must watch for Kdrama beginners.
