Kingdom meshes together the political corruption and power struggles of historical k-dramas with the thrills and gore of good zombie flick. It will be fun for fans of shows like Walking Dead, Game of Thrones or Train to Busan. Have to note that those shows I just mentioned have considerably more depth in their story themes, characters and relationships, but there's enough here to keep viewers invested and entertained.
The GOOD: It's well-produced gore and action- both gross and engrossing. The plot moves at a good pace and keeps you pushing the play button to find out what happens next.
The NOT AS GOOD: The characters are all stereotypical. The heroes are likable but not lovable. The noblemen are aggravatingly corrupt and lame. The peasants are all just one generic group of people that stand for the weak and oppressed. There isn't really any depth to the characters or their relationships with each other.
The BAD: The ending was not satisfying, but that's all I'll say. You're going to have to wait months for Season 2 to get any sense of closure.
But it's a fun watch if you like zombie thrillers.
