Its long, drawn out CGI set pieces feel weightless and dull, with no tension or excitement to be found on the derelict streets of South Korea.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Nov 6, 2023

What "Peninsula" lacks in humanity is made up with spectacular car chases and firearms. Is it as good as "Train to Busan"? No, but it's good enough, in a Hollywood shoot-em-up kind of way.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 27, 2023

While it can't quite reach the heights of its predecessor, it's still ambitious, exciting stuff.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 21, 2023

The sequel rides the same rails as the original but doesn’t manage to re-create the kicky nonstop action/tension that made “Busan” so enjoyable.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Dec 23, 2022

Enjoyable at times, but the ties to its predecessor seem forced.

| Nov 8, 2022

If you adore the zombie genre in all its shambling forms, Peninsula will press your buttons. Those chasing that same Train To Busan buzz, however, will leave disappointed by yet another sequel that abandons its principles in the pursuit of spectacle.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 26, 2022

With the same anchor of family and hope in the younger generation, Peninsula is a worthy follow up to Train to Busan, if a little more of what wed expect from a typical zombie action film.

| Feb 21, 2022

Between the pacing and downright zany array of vehicular shoot-em-up sequences, there's plenty to satiate the viewer's hunger for zombie action, even if it works better as a solo outing than a sequel.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 17, 2022

Peninsula might not be to the same level of Train to Busan, but still is worth checking out to those faithful to the original film.

| Feb 12, 2022

This sequel is definitely weaker than its first part. Still, it's a great watch for someone who likes to read between the lines and understands a message that relates to our world and humanity.

| Original Score: B- | Feb 11, 2022

In the end, I got what I didn't know I wanted, but not enough of what I was hoping for.

| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Jul 29, 2021

Mindless gore and relentless action are director Yeon Sang-ho's weapons of choice, with which he hopes to bludgeon you into submission.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 17, 2021

'Peninsula' is clearer about what a zombie movie should be than most of the of 'The Walking Dead.' [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 17, 2021

[The film] never reaches the level of emotionality of its predecessors. When it tries, particularly in the final sequence, another of the film's basic problems becomes apparent: character definition. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 2/5 | Apr 28, 2021

Yeon Sang-ho returns once again... to bring us a thrilling automobile (and nautical) journey. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 20, 2021

There's another infection going around. It's called 'sequelitis' and Peninsula has a pretty rough case of it.

| Apr 4, 2021

PENINSULA is an exciting and emotionally honest zombie film. It is a worthy successor to the rightly venerated Train To Busan. It is a celebration of all the good things in human beings and the importance of human lives.

| Mar 1, 2021

Yeon Sang-ho's follow up to the remarkable Train to Busan, set four years later, shows that bigger is not necessarily better. Overall, nothing wrong with it, if you rein in your expectations.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 12, 2021

Amplifies everything about its predecessor-for better and worse-while staying true to its core values.

| Feb 3, 2021

The film is agile, the characters become functional for the development of the plot, and for the action, it takes advantage of all the visual resources to a large extent without clashing towards the end. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 6/10 | Dec 21, 2020
