I had enough of zombie flicks after the first... there really is no need for any more, but this at least works well as a sci-fi action flick. Like Tom Cruise's War of the Worlds it has plenty of suspense mostly rather than shocks. Early scenes are clearly set in Glasgow's George Square.
Surprisingly good. I was worried this would just be another Ransom, another routine thriller, but it takes a different route to the one expected at first. It's a detective story, a la Luc Besson, set in Paris with some social commentary thrown in. Nothing sophisticated but it was a fun James Bond style superhero action flick that never felt gratuitous and was reasonably well grounded in reality.
Hustling poor Korean family demonstrating that the class divide can never be surmounted. A slow-paced thriller that keeps you on edge, whilst never quite becoming sinister, just powerfully developing the characters' stories to the ultimate conclusion.
