When the first part of Train to Busan came out, it instantly swept the world and became a classic. Under the expectation of many people, Train to Busan 2 is here, but against the backdrop of the first film that amazes the world, this film is at best quite satisfactory, with no surprises and no bright spots. Even zombies have become a dispensable. The background board is simply ridiculous.
Almost all characters are not bitten. The main contradiction of the first part is that there are so many real and lovely people on the train who are bitten by zombies at any time and then in danger of being infected. But in this one, although there are still many zombies, Few of the main characters were bitten. Their main conflict is those who are still alive inside the peninsula. This is a conflict between those who are alive inside the peninsula, and several people from outside the peninsula and the little girl's family.
The little girl's grandfather was shot to death by the captain. The male protagonist's brother-in-law was also beaten to death by people inside the peninsula. And even the captain who finally escaped in a truck was shot and killed by those who responded! None of the main characters were bitten, and the dangers they faced were all those who survived inside the peninsula. On the other hand, zombies are almost like weak chickens with no combat power, and they are completely reduced to background boards.
A little girl who controls the remote control car can easily lead away the zombies. A group of people who are caught and numbered can fight with the zombie group and survive easily. Not to mention that driving a car can easily crush a large number of zombies. And zombies can't see anything at night, they can only rely on the sound, I'm going, much weaker than humans! Humans can easily turn on a headlight, and they can command zombies to attack at will. Zombies have no face?
If that's the case, why bother to make a zombie movie with the gimmick of the trip to Busan? Zombies have no fighting power at all, and the main contradiction of the film is not being bitten by zombies. Zombies can almost be said to be a dispensable background. Zombies are replaced by uncontrolled robots, and mental patients who have completely lost their minds. Even Change it to an alien, change it to a mutated animal or something, it doesn't seem to violate the peace at all, there is no need to hold on to the zombies!
The ending of the Gods of Heaven is also funny. You have been struggling to survive on the peninsula for so long, fighting wits and bravery with those zombies for so long, and carpooling with those living on the peninsula to compete for firepower. As a result, the Americans saw the weather today. It's pretty good, um, it's suitable to send out a plane to yo-yo and pretend to rescue, so you guys are saved, it's not too funny. Co-authoring an entire movie for nothing? It's better that the little girl's family eat and drink on the peninsula and wait. Hey, a plane is coming, and the family is rescued, not even a minute.
Although I don't like Guo Jingming much, I agree with what he said in the actor's seat. The most taboo in the movie is the falling of the gods. Look at the first one, the little girl and the pregnant woman came out on their own! Those who rescued people did not go in to rescue them. It was because of the protection of their families and various reasons that they survived and came out! And you, because you are the protagonists, so at a critical juncture, the planes came to the rescue? Sooner or later, but it came at the most dangerous time, and none of the protagonists died, but the most inexistent grandfather...
The most successful part of Train to Busan is that it has created so many flesh-and-blood people. They are either kind, cowardly, timid, or selfish, and almost everyone in the car is extraordinarily vivid. And in this one, there is not a single character alive in the whole story. As for the people living on the peninsula, they are more like zombies than zombies. There are so many people, and they all like that brutal way of life? Even in the case of zombie siege, most people still preserve basic kindness and justice, right? Do you look at the characters in Busan 1st Mile? Only a few are so selfish, and everyone here seems to be infected, and they all become zombies who are still alive. Is it because four years have passed?
To be honest, this one is at most a passing score, and it is too much to give to Samsung. There is no tension in the whole process. It doesn’t matter. Anyway, zombies are also optional background boards. Don’t worry, you will not be bitten.
