Train to Busan - Yeon Sang-ho
Check this out ASAP while it’s still on Netflix!
Train to Busan is a literal thrill ride about a father and daughter doing whatever it takes to get to Busan -- which is safe from the infection -- or so they hope.
This is arguably one of the best zombie movies I’ve ever watched. It presents characters with depth and provides an underlying social commentary on the world and the people in it. There are characters you will root for, and some you won’t. It has very uniquely choreographed action sequences full of intensity and dread. When you think things can’t possibly get worse -- they do. With masterful cinematography, it never feels cramped despite the characters being on a speeding train for most of the film. Usually, children in films are a hit or miss for me, but the young girl in this did a fantastic job. Sure, at times the zombies’ behavior was convenient for the given situation, but Train to Busan is such an exhilarating ride that it doesn't really matter. It is a solid film about redemption and survival -- and make sure to pay attention, because it does require subtitles to watch.
