Movie Review - Train To Busan (2016)

This South Korean film with the Action Thriller genre really captured my heart this time, the title of the cool Korean film I just watched is Train To Busan, this cool and exciting film was released in 2016 and got a score of 7.6 out of IMDB site.

The synopsis of this 118 minute film tells the story of a group of people who were trapped in a train filled with zombies as they were about to head to Busan City, and of the many people who survived the ferocity of the zombies on the train, only 2 people survived, namely one Pregnant mother and a female girl.

The context presented in the film focuses on a group of people who are trying to survive so as not to be infected by a virus that is contagious from zombies which are very brutal and continue to attack blindly.

The striking story of this film is when it shows a very touching love story by a dashing husband named Sang-hwa, played by Ma Dong-seok who is willing to sacrifice his life in order to save his wife who is in pain. pregnant from a Zombie attack.

The actor who is Ma Dong-Seok's wife in this film is named Sung Gyeong, played by Jung Yu Mi, then the main storyline of this film focuses on a father named Seok-Woo played by Gong Yoo who tried hard and sacrificed his life to save his little girl named Soo-an played by Kim Su-an.

When you hear the names Ma Dong-Seok, Jung Yu Mi and the handsome Gong Yoo, I'm sure you can already imagine how exciting the storyline of this film is.

The brutal fighting action of the South Korean superstar Ma Dong-Seok makes all the audience stunned when they look at the viewing screen in front of their eyes, especially since this is one of the action films where almost all of the film scenes are action, which makes the audience interested. makes you very entertained and often has to take a deep breath due to excitement.

The main story of the Zombie virus in this film tells about a virus that is infected by Zombie Deer to the humans around it (if you want to know more details about Zombie Deer, you can just go to Google).

Apart from Zombie, another antagonist in this film is Yong-suk, played by Kim Eui-Sung, he plays one of the train passengers who always provokes people on the train to fight with each other. others because of their personal interests which make people who should be safe become infected with the Zombie virus.

You will also be shown how terrible the indiscriminate zombie attacks are in this film. Of all the zombie films I have ever watched, the zombies in this film look more brutal with bloody facial makeup, bulging eyes and badly injured bodies that make me keep imagining them. all night after watching this movie.

The make-up and costumes used for the terrifying zombies in this film are truly so total that it will leave the audience traumatized all day long.

The great action of the husband and father to save the people they love really made me shed tears while watching this film.

The emotional feeling throughout the film really made me tremble, the combination of action scenes, horror, thriller and a little romance made this film so perfect.

In addition, there is the story of a pair of teenage lovers who are still at school and a pair of weak old grandmother sisters throughout the film, which made me very moved when I watched this film because they had to choose to die because they couldn't bear to see their loved ones get infected by the Zombie virus, even though it was a little selfish but This scene looks very sad.

Until finally what remained was a pregnant woman whose husband had died due to sacrificing himself while holding back zombies and a little girl who had to be willing to lose her father who was forced to commit suicide because he was bitten by a zombie when he wanted to save her.

Finally they made it to Busan after boarding a new train after the first train they were on was completely destroyed due to the people who had all become zombies.

The safety of the two of them made my heart feel a little relieved after I felt so panicked while watching the tense story of this film.

In my opinion, this is a good film that succeeded in surprising the audience. The selection of great actors such as Ma Dong-Seok, Gong Yoo and Jung Yu Mi made this film even more popular with Korean film lovers.

This is one of the best Korean films I have ever watched, the camera effects and CGI editing that are displayed throughout the film look so real that it makes us feel that in Korea currently the Zombie virus is spreading like the Corona Virus in 2019.

The acting of the actors is also very total and cool, their facial expressions, speaking tone and the expressions they show in every scene of the film are very perfect. The sound and every sound that is heard throughout the film is also very clear and will really make our hearts flutter, starting from the sound of trains, crashes, screams, cries and even the voices of zombies can all be heard clearly which makes the exciting impression when watching this film so perfect

Director Yeon Sang-ho has succeeded in creating this film extraordinary.

The conclusion I can draw after watching this film is to respect a man who is fully responsible for the women and children they love, a man is willing to sacrifice his life to see the people he loves happy and keep smiling all the time.

The role of men is very influential on the happiness of the people around them, especially when they become saviors and heroes for the people they love. Men are happier to die to save the people they love than to live in misery looking at the people they love. died in front of him.

This is an exciting, cool and a little sad film, for friends who love Action Thriller films from South Korea, this is a film that I recommend for you to watch, see you in the next film review.
