Zombie Survival Done Right
For something that I expected to fall off short, I'm still in awe of what I saw. Sure, I've heard a lot of praise about this movie, but at the end of the day, it's just another zombie survival, how good can it get?I take it back. How good can it NOT get?!
When even Hollywood can't sell off a plot with its seemingly unending budget, you'd think nobody else can. Well, I guess I'm stepping into a territory where nothing of that matters.
This movie had everything, cast, plot, budget, and most importantly, it was enjoyable. The acting was superb, I really connected with all characters. The gore as unforgiving, and the stakes were racing the high skies. This is a really special experience as a first-time watch, and ever more so as rewatch material.

Very amazing zombie movie!
I absolutely adore Korean zombie shows and movies because they’re all very different and fun to watch!I watched this movie a longgg longggg time ago when it came out, I distinctly remember watching it hoping it for it to be scary as I was watching alone but NAHHH this was more heartwarming and intense than horror.
I absolutely despise the business guy omggg tho it’s been long since I last watched, I still remember this movie scene by scene, this is how good this movie is!!!
The child actor is amazing and awesome!
The acting is so catching and well done!
As a person who enjoys zombie shows, I’d definitely recommend anyone this movie first!
Also, to say about the zombies, they’re very fast and scary gosh
I remember crying buckets of tears on the last scene ???

La verdad es que me encantó, la película tiene acción desde el primer momento y te mantiene todo el rato en alerta y con la sensación de "en cualquier momento esto se va a acabar".
Otra de las cosas que me encantó fue que fuera de zombies. Amo los zombies coreanos. Nunca me habían llamado la atención las historias de zombies pero Corea está haciendo que me encanten y es por la peculiaridad que tienen los zombies coreanos. Cuando pensamos en zombies, pensamos en seres lentos, no en seres que son capaces de correr una marathon. Sin embargo, en la cultura coreana hay algo llamado 빠리빠리 (palli-palli) que hace referencia a la cultura de la prisa, a hacerlo todo rápido y corriendo y ya y es un elemento que los coreanos le han inculcado incluso a los zombies, por lo que es la primera vez que vi zombies corriendo.
La verdad es que es una película que recomiendo a todo el mundo y que creo que deberían de verla al menos una vez.

haha I'm depressed
i don't even know how to startfirst, i thought the movie would end well
most of the characters would be alive, but haha no
only the pregnant woman and the kid survived.
i wanted to know deeper the story of the characters to develop feelings for them you know? but i only had feelings for the pregnant couple and the father with his kid. (cried when he died lol)
plus, did the mother of the kid was alive or not? she didn't answered the phone calls but she could be alive.
i loved the action scenes! they were sooo cool!! the actors did an amazing job, i felt so emotional ? (Gong Yoo always impressive)
overall, the movie is so good!! i dare to say that is the best korean movie I've seen, but the end was empty...could have more

One of the best zombie movie
This is one the few zombie movies which are really good and are not just about action and all making ? boom bam here and there rather it's explore the grounded level problems and keep situations bit realistic and just not glorify the maine character.To be honest I'm not really fan of sad endings I even avoid watching movies or drama with sad sad endings but this is one of them which I watch even knowing that the ending is not really a happy ending.
And I think sad ending make this movie even more spacial.
So if you want to watch a zombie movie with emotional rollercoaster ride then just watch it without thinking about the ending I am sure you will like it.

Great movie it really makes you feel all the emotions.
I have watched many Zombie series/movies and i think this was the first movie where it made me full on cry. When i started the movie I didn't think you could get so attached to some of these characters which is never a good idea when you watch anything zombie related. So I didn't think the story would be so emotional surprised me there.Otherwise really great movie, the acting is really good you can feel every emotion through the actor/actress that it makes the story even more believable. The action scenes get you on the edge of your seat you never know what is going to happen, you never know how they will survive and get out of the situation. It never gets boring watching it.
This was my first review so I hope i wrote it ok. The first part was a review that doesn't contain spoilers the second part is just me ranting about some things from the movie which were the reasons I even wrote it in the first place.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MAJOR SPOLERS AHEAD!!!
That COCKROACH of a man did not only kill/infect all the people but also got infected himself, like he is so desperate to survive yet HE MANAGES TO DIE. Even the pregnant lady survived how can he so selfish and still be that useless for his survival.
Also the scene where the dad gets infected i couldn't have SOBED more it was already sad, but then they threw the flashbacks in NAHHH U TRYING TO KILL ME TOO.

Un scénario qui diffère des autres films (l’action se passant dans un train et non en pleine ville), des acteurs incroyables (Gong Yoo, Kim Soo An, Ma Dong Seok, Jung Yu Mi, Choi Woo Shik et Ahn So Hee, ayant été mes favoris au long de l’histoire), la production, tout a été tout simplement parfait. On est rapidement happé par l’histoire, la tension qui retient l’attention tout au long. J’ai vraiment adoré ce film !

ENDING WAS UNEXPECTED
Honestly, I went into watching this expecting just a 'scary movie' (as everyone says).However, I didn't expect to actually see character development from the male lead so quickly.
This was one of the best kmovies I've watched and probably will watch again.
The ending had me in tears.
ps.
a) that annoying, arrogant old man- i just wanted to slap him ; of course he had to be selfish to the end
b) i felt like that little girl learned a lesson but i feel bad because shes now traumatised for life

It'll wreck you
I kept getting recommended this movie so I finally sat down and watched it. Now, I don't often give media full marks but holy shiiiiit this was so good.Zombies:
I'm not really a huge fan of zombie shows or zombie movies. The way they implemented the zombies in this movie though... Definitely worth the watch. The way they used tricks with light and sound to maneuver past the zombies was so well coordinated. Add in the creepiness of these zombies running, climbing, and clamoring across each other for their next bite... well yeah it's definitely nightmare fuel.
Humans:
As always, the human aspect is often more terrifying than the zombies. You know what to expect with zombies. You never know when a human will decide to turn on you. The main group finding ways to push forward together, even with tension between them and a different group. The way the father fought to protect his daughter. The way the husband fought to protect his wife. The teenage friends. The elderly sisters. So many good scenes between characters. Some that are inspiring. Some that will absolutely wreck you. Some that will make you want to rage quit but keep watching because it is 100% worth it all just to reach the ending.
Movie:
I cannot stress enough that this movie is absolutely worth watching all the way through. You HAVE to get to the end. The payoff at the end is beautiful!

TRAIN TO BUSAN is the first South Korean film to have a wide theatrical release in India. That attracted too. It was released in India in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. I watched the film first in Korean with English subtitles, and then in Hindi. And I realized that the film manages to convey its message and make you reciprocate emotionally for the film, whether you watch the dubbed version or the original version. The Hindi dubbing was good enough to add to the positive feel.
The art South Korean filmmakers know is how to add an emotional feel to different genres. Thus, TRAIN TO BUSAN is no exception as it makes you feel for every character. Gong Yoo takes his performance to a higher level and raises the bar for world cinema actors in the climax. He is extremely likable and excellent. Ma Dong-seok is brave, lively and energetic too. Jung Yu-mi impresses big time with her beautiful & emotionally active character. Kim Su-an is cute & impresses with her strong act in sequences which one can't expect from a child artist of her age. Other actors too deliver performances great enough to make you care for them.
The film's scale is big, and the visual effects are amazing. Cinematography is excellent and captures the locales & thrilling action sequences with plenty of intrigue, while also succeeding in sending chills down your spine through the emotional sequences. Thankfully, it's not an Indian film, otherwise filmmakers won't have rested without adding songs & unnecessary romance. Whatever you see in the film, looks very, very realistic. The tension is very well built and neither do you deviate from enjoying the film, nor does the film deviate from storytelling.
The story and screenplay are both excellent, and the editing is excellent. The only thing that disappointed me was the A certificate given to it by the Indian Censor Board called CBFC. Why? No nation of the world gave this film an 18+ rating except India & Malaysia. Leave Malaysian Certification system because they follow equal rules for all films Irrespective of the target audience. But in India, films with dozens of gory violence & bucket loads of vulgarity get a UA (PG) certificate. TRAIN TO BUSAN is a clean family entertainer despite the A certificate it has been subjected to. But it's not a mistake of the makers, so there was no flaw I found in the film.
Overall, TRAIN TO BUSAN is a must watch film for any movie enthusiast. Irrespective of language and nation barriers, the film deserves to be watched by one and all. And yes, I forgot to tell. This film was the first one that actually made me cry. No film before had compelled me to shed tears, but this film did. Even the emotionless will emote. Such strong is this film. Go, watch it with your family and enjoy it fully, along with respecting the safe life we have from zombies in reality.

They got me so invested in all the characters and fleshed out the character development for pretty much everyone, which is really hard to do in a simple two hour movie. I was really emotionally connected to all the characters and yes, there was a lot of crying.
Essentially, this is so much more than a zombie movie. Yes, there are zombies and they freaked me out, but the story was so much more about human nature. There's a lot of social commentary about how the homeless is treated, about selfishness, about how easily distrust is sewn between one another...I felt a lot of references to Macbeth and Lord of the Flies when I was watching this — but with ten times the emotional impact.
