The Package (2024)

Watchable

Story - Promising premise (I like the general story and the idea of z-pen and bracelet) but it is unfortunate that they had to cramp multiple genre into one show. I'm not saying it should not be done but it is risky to do so and apparently, they ended up with half-baked everything. The romance/drama, kinda destroyed the momentum midway, honestly. I found myself fast-forwarding starting from midway 'til the end.
Editing - Passable. As an avid viewer of zombies, I can say is barely average. In the introductory scenes for instance, They could have started with the flashback instead of present > flashback > present. It would have had made a great impact if they started with the flashback and transitioned to a hardened FL after experiencing losing her SO to the zombies.
Acting - I'm sorry fans but it's not great. The FL, in particular, is not convincing as a "hardened person" after the circumstances she went through. I can think of multiple instance but case on point: Lackluster reaction upon seeing who she thought was long-dead to be alive and well. Action scene ain't that good as well.

I can't think of so many issues but they can be overlooked (believe me, I overlooked a lot because I miss my zombie shows and I wanted to enjoy this) like how stupid it is for the half-bie male lead to be wearing the same clothes after many years?

A solid watch

I really love the premise of this movie and it’s filled with so many concepts that I find interesting, like the plant x, the z-pen and the half-zombie situation with Park. Acting-wise, the actors delivered well and Mew especially nailed it with his emotional scenes. Although we only got small glimpses of the romance between Mew and Belle’s character, I find them really cute together.

The cinematography looks excellent and perfectly captured that eerie post-apocalyptic setting. The fight scenes were so good and that tunnel scene got me holding my breath.

All in all, this zombie movie is fantastic and it honestly exceeded my expectations. I think they hinted at a possible sequel (that post-credits scene, iykyk) and trust that I will be seated for that.

Using a stick to hit a metal chain and expecting it to work is dumb.

The female lead annoyed me in the beginning, why are you screaming and drawing attention to yourself? Also why tf are you hitting a metal chain and lock that is looped around a door, with a stick to break it? What is that going to do?!

I thought once you got bit that was it, the vaccine couldn’t help you, yet Rider 50 was bitten and his bracelet showed green? Also how are you gonna take a van and not even check to make sure it’s safe? Really?

Fah’s reaction after seeing her supposedly dead boyfriend after 5 years is so lackluster is unbelievable. Also her reaction to him being the package/the cure and him not remembering anything about her or himself is, honestly, terrible.

I do love the trope of “a person is bitten but doesn’t turn and they turn out to be the cure/savior”.

I also wished it went into more detail about the plant they eat, because that is something I’ve never seen before in a zombie movie (and trust me, I’ve seen just about every zombie movie ever made) and its a really unique and amazing concept.

Not the best zombie movie but not the worst I've ever seen....It is up there though..
