A must watch movie
Oh my goodness what a movie it is.It showed the limits one can cross for their loved ones. Almost all the actors did outstanding work in it. The plot moves really smoothly. Loved both the dads so much especially Sang Hwa. The film shows the different emotions one goes through during a situation when death is right before your eyes. Fear, Anger, Love, Sacrifice, Selfishness, Selflessness, Team-spirit. The movie was wholesome full of emotions.
I tried my best to not cry when Sang hwa died and when SeokWoo got infected. But ended up crying when Seok Woo started remembering the time when Soo Ahn was born. Then I tried to stop crying and did stop crying but then at the very end Soo Ahn starting singing the song which she had prepared for her dad but could never sing for him, I cried again.

Iconic
As headline says, its iconic.Is it good? Yes, if you like Z-tales.
Predictable and I wish the jerks had worse endings.
I personally aint very fond of Z content but I endured this one, mainly because the acting was that good.
It was the perfect Z-popcorn excitement cine you watch with friends.
I wish the ending was a little bit better but all in all, it was quite good, again, its the acting that raises the rating, script wise, not as much .
Perhaps contradictive but it has 99% good re-watch rate as the Fx and all the small details you might miss the first round.
Another small interesting part is that the movie is 2hours long, which makes the story almost in real time (as a regular Soul-Busan journey takes ~2.5hours with the speed train), for that alone, it makes this worth watching.

HEARTFELT
A movie with great actors, screenplay and writing. But heart aches to rewatch it. A decent thrilling movie for beginners. Loved the daughter - Father bond the film played by Gong yoo & Suan. The climax was soo heartbreaking but showed the side of a father who sacrificed his life for the daughter.The pregnant women played by Jung Yumi loosing her husband played by Dong lee was soo heartbreaking😭 .It does have rewatched value , still heart aches to rewatch it . A thrilling yet a heartfelt emotional movie

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.

An Insane Thriller ane Tear-jerker
Going into this movie, I had high expectations from what I’ve heard, and it did not disappoint. The only reason it isn’t a 10 is because I found the beginning to be a bit slow, and I kinda wanted an explanation as to how the zombie outbreak actually happened. But these are just minor flaws, and this movie is still stunning. I found myself worried for the characters, especially when the group of three were going through the cars. The end when he sacrifices himself so he wouldn’t attack the others broke me. I mean like, full on sobbing. Watch this movie!!!!!!Was this review helpful to you?

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 😭😭😭

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.
