Train to Busan 2: Peninsula (2020)

The trailer for T-Mobile just dropped. It looks Hollywood, which honestly isn't much of a compliment.

Man, this looks absolutely insane. Honestly, after how much that first part raised the bar, you can't really expect anything less than total overkill when it comes to the production value.

Will the cast be the same? Where's Sue and that pregnant actress (I can't for the life of me remember her name)?

Is this one little?

The action sequences were executed quite well, though I can't help but feel this installment lacks the punch of the original. In the first movie, the script actually had some substance, whereas this one feels a bit rushed—like they just threw something together specifically to justify making a sequel. Honestly, it would probably be sitting right on the edge of being a mediocre film if it weren't for that overly sentimental, pathetic ending...

It’s a fun enough watch, I guess, but compared to the original? It just doesn't hold a candle. All those tense moments get totally killed by the garbage CGI they used.

It’s like the same director didn't even film this. Honestly, the disappointment here hits right on par with how much *Escape from L.A.* let me down—whereas the first one was such a pleasant little surprise, this is just an awkward, massive letdown. If I had to weigh the pros against the cons, we're looking at a pathetic 20:80 split. The car chases? Yeah, they aren't just on steroids; they're on freaking Dolby Surround steroids. But even then, those were basically the only thing keeping me glued to this garbage until the credits rolled. And don't even get me started on the cast. The lead actors are actually great, but the villains and the zombies? Total bottom-of-the-barrel trash. Actually, scratch that, even decent trash would have been better than this.

And once those two are off-screen, there isn't a single memorable hero OR villain in sight. Just pack it up, folks... it's a total wash.

This movie was absolutely terrible. It’s easily ten times worse than the first one.

Honestly, this is nowhere near the quality of the first one—didn't really vibe with it at all. Just a weak attempt at an American Mad Max

An American remake is officially in the works—Last Train to New York

On one hand, you’re looking at better action sequences, but on the other, just a bunch of stupider gags. 🤷

The first part was actually pretty decent, but the sequel
Maybe she shouldn't be behind the wheel if she’s just going to spend the whole time barking orders at Dom Toretto.
