What A Waste

Welp, Peninsula won't be following Train To Busan to Cannes that's for sure. Aside from the zombies and taking place in South Korea, it has very little in common with TTB. The script has little to no heart. The acting was phoned in. The entire production was a dystopian mess. It was difficult to pay attention or even care about the main cast.

A military man played by Kang Dong Won returns to Seoul after escaping the zombie epidemic with a team of people to look for riches to sell on the Chinese black market. This idea doesn't sit well with the survivors who are still trapped in South Korea. The movie is about his 2nd escape out of South Korea. The script seems like it was barely passable. There's not much of an idea to work with. I think that's why the acting was subpar for the most part.

The music wasn't bad. It was better than the movie. The re-watch value on this is in the negative.
