The article reveals part of the movie’s content, consider before reading!
In 2016, Train to Busan suddenly made a splash with its new ideas and unique filmmaking method.
Peninsula is set 4 years after the zombie apocalypse in Train to Busan.
The two brothers accepted a gang’s invitation to return to Korea to find a car containing 20 million USD that had previously gone missing.
In the post-apocalyptic world there is no right or wrong, only the strong and the weak
Set 4 years after Train to Busan, Korea in the Peninsula has now become desolate, a true dead land with zombies appearing everywhere.
That’s Gang 631, which specializes in looting food and forcing other survivors to fight zombies in the arena just for fun.
The characters are full of superheroes, racing like Dom Toretto, and shooting like John Wick
Unfortunately, the post-apocalyptic setting is the best thing about the movie.
Even though Yu Jin is not yet a teenager, he possesses amazing driving techniques that make Dom Toretto call him master.
Instead, the sequel Train to Busan focuses on action elements.
The content is full of grit, the details are predictable and the emotions are too superficial
Even though we know that movies about zombies are fictional, it’s hard to accept that there are so many flaws like Peninsula.
Since Jung Seok and Chul Min were separated, the film also became two stories taking place in parallel.
Peninsula is the complete opposite.
Not only that, the work is also inferior to its predecessor in building emotions.
This leads to the film’s emotions becoming bland.
Peninsula is definitely worse than Train to Busan but still worth watching
At the end of the movie Peninsula, many people will sigh sadly and remember Train to Busan.
Peninsula opens in theaters on July 24 nationwide.
