Train toBusan has a bit of a lull somewhere around the middle. But, instead of getting boring, this is when the characters get a chance to figure out what's worth fighting for.
Also, it has to be said, that while we're following quite a few characters, the father (played by Yoo Gong from The Suspect/Yong-eui-ja) and daughter are at the center of the plot. The storyline never faulters on that premise.
The fact that we have an entire baseball team on board the train doesn't change this. Especially since we only really follow two of the people from that group. Though all of them are important when it comes to fighting the zombies off.
A new kind of zombie
The zombies themselves are nothing out of the ordinary - as far as zombies go - on a visual level. However, they move in a crazy way. Almost beautiful and elegant like dancing. But, you know, also pretty damn creepy since it's more of a \"Pop & Lock\" kind of dance.
The choice to make the zombies move in this very specific way could in part be due to writer-director Sang-ho Yeon having previously worked with animation. Whatever the reason, it works really well and offers something new.
Train to Busan (Original title Busanhaeng) premiered in its native South Korea on July 20, 2016, and is breaking records with an impressive opening weekend.
On July 22, 2016, it premiered in the US, and throughout August Train to Busan will be released in various countries around the world. Meanwhile, it will also continue to play at film festivals. If you get the chance to watch this one, you definitely don't want to miss it!
While a zombie-virus breaks out in South Korea, a couple of passengers struggle to survive on the train from Seoul to Busan.
