Sang-ho Yeon's Peninsula is a far cry from Train to Busan, failing to capture lighting in a bottle once again, instead suffering from general sequel tendencies, including more action and less story. The budget seems to have increased, but the charm and magic is all but lost.

With Peninsula, Yeon Sang-ho has made a thematically less ambitious but more visual effects-heavy zombie flick. In large part due to triteness, Yeon, unfortunately, fails to reach the heights of Train to Busan, but, even though this sequel is a little bit of a disappointment, the film definitely has its moments.

The story is tight, if highly borrowed, and the action scenes are plentiful. Compare it with nearly every other zombie film to come out in the last two decades and it’s a creepy way to spend a couple of hours. Compare it to Yeon’s last two movies, though, and it comes up lacking. Read more

Sang-ho is working with a much bigger canvas here, but he's lost the creativity required by the confined setting of Peninsula's predecessor. Read more

The zombie-based horror is still moderately effective, but these characters and their scenarios struggle to appear as anything other than additional adventures from overly familiar storylines. Read more

Korean Noir ten top in Peninsula. Zonder meer één van de beste actiefilms van het filmjaar 2020 na Extraction. Read more

Peninsula werd erg naar uitgekeken, maar de fans van Train to Busan zullen zeer waarschijnlijk wat teleurgesteld zijn door dit vervolg. Als je dat los kan laten krijg je een paar redelijke actiescenes voorgeschoteld en acteurs welke wel degelijk hun best doen er wat van te maken. Read more

Geen creativiteit en veel herhaling. En dan weer die abominabele special effects. Read more
