Atom User Reviews for Train to Busan Presents: Peninsula

Nice follow-up to Train to Busan!

It was an amazing movie. The cast was great and the plot was really good. This movie is a must see!!

Good sequel to the original movie. Don’t watch the prequel animated one though. That one sucks.

Boring

Was really good but long ending, overall a really great sequel

Epic ending. Worth it.

Not the best, not the worst. Entertaining but very other zombie movies made me feel more on edge. Not a must see but not terrible. Train to Busan was better

Peninsula suffers the same type of sequelitis that suggests a second entry must be more/bigger/louder than its predecessor. Where Train to Busan’s two hours were impeccably paced and every frame meticulously used, Peninsula spins its wheels in between its admittedly impressive key set pieces.

Director Yeon Sang-ho, who staged genuinely tense sequences in the first film, just seems suddenly out of his element here when expected to produce a grander action spectacle.
