After the great reviews I thought it would be amazing, but it was rather average! NO PLOT DEVELOPMENT! Zombies,…
Actually, there was a sort of backstory. Do you remember the call Seok Woo got on the train from the Analyst Kim guy? They worked for the company who had funded the research that went into creating the disease that made the Zombies. It was a military plan. At least that was what I gathered. That's why on the phone at around at the 1 hour and 25 minute mark, Seok Woo was telling Analyst Kim it wasn't Analyst Kim's fault. And then proceeded to break down and cry himself.
At least that's what I managed to gather.
Plus! There was a good bit of character development that I found very satisfactory. And how were you expecting more when the title is Called Train to Busan? That's pretty much a dead giveaway to the fact that not much else would happen outside of the train.
This is a really good chase/thriller movie. But there is no backstory on how the infection started.

This movie surprisingly ripped into my heart at the end and for some reason I feel quite content without even…

Ghosh people, make up your mind! One says it's horrible and the other says it's amazing, I really don't…
I don't know if you watched it yet or not, but I think the problem is this: the storyline is honestly good, the actors are mostly great, but the execution of the story is the problem. I'm only on episode 10 and I am already losing hope in it because of how slow it is.
I; for one, have never seen the movie that this was a "knock off" from. I might have to watch it, but in the mean time, I can only say what I kow. I know this movie had a beautiful storyline. I don't get how many people don't understand Seol Rang's actions.
1. She felt guilty for killing a righteous man because she could not let the man she loved (Deok Ki) die.
2. She tried to save Hong Yi by forbidden methods but it failed and she lost her eyesight.
3. She raised Seol Hee to kill her and the man she loves to take revenge in place of the righteous man's daughter who was dead.
4. Seol Rang wanted to die by the hands of her own daughter as an atonement for her sin.
5. She wanted her daughter to kill the man she loved as an atonement for his betrayal and other sins.
It was a beautiful and complex storyline in my current opinion and it made me cry at the end. If I ever watch the movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I may very well change my opinion; however, viewing this movie by itself, it was beautiful.
Some are commenting about how there wasn't enough action or what did it do for the people or changing the government etc, but the movie was not about that! It was about vengeance, atonement and how greedy human beings really are. I loved it.
Does anyone else notice how they copied the car and train scene from Fire Proof almost exactly? The guy's hat even fell off. I would have liked it more if not for the obvious copied scene.
I know that this one is copied, because Fire Proof was released in 2008, whereas this movie was released in 2012.
This was such a great movie. ^-^ I had to watch it again.
I watched it on YouTube, although I'm not sure if it's still available to watch there. Last time I checked, I could also watch it on Netflix. I hope this helps. ^^

At least from what I think.

All in all, great movie, very intriguing and suspenseful plot line.
