5 scenes that I dislike


Firstly, at the beginning of the movie the homeless old man was injured and walking to the station. There are a lot of people walk around him and talk about him.The reason why i dislike this scene is because this scene is very cruel. Even thought there are a lot of people around him but no one want to giving help to this homeless old man.There are two man were talking about this homeless old man and one of the man wanted to help this old man but when he walk closely he quickly turning back and walk to his friend and say this old man is smelly and he must be a homeless guy.This is a social issue that are exactly happen in our society which is discrimination. They don't giving help because of this old man is a homeless guy.Besides, class distinction also is one of the issue why the people pass by him do not help him.In the society, homeless people are the lower class because they don't have money , education and status.In this society people are easy to belittle a person like this.

Secondly, when the Hye-sun is trying to escape a group of zombie chasing he follow a man using something that like a stair and climb up to the house.This is the only way she can escape from those zombies.When the man already arrived at the opposite of the fence he saw Hye-sun is trying to come over here but due to Hye-sun is a woman she is no more energy to climb over there and almost fall down from the wire. When the man saw it , he climb to Hye-sun and help her to cross over the wire and unfortunately he fall down and bite by those zombie.The man is the guy who stand at the entrance to against the zombie and fighting with the zombie.When one of his friend was bitten by zombie this man did not save him immediately and just let he bite by the zombie.This is actually also a social issue which is gender bias. The gender equality is not same and not fair.


Thirdly,the scene I dislike is when the main character Hye-sun , her boyfriend Ki-Woong and the pimp Suk-gyu meet together. This scene should be very touching because finally three of this characters survive till the end.They are so hard to find each other, but Suk-gyu is trying to murder Hye-sun and Ki-Woong. This is the reason why Suk-gyu follow Ki-Woong at the beginning to find Hye-Sun.I believe a lot of audiences was same as me thought that Suk-gyu is the good person in this movie because he was trying very hard to save Ki-Woong when he attack by the zombie.When Suk-gyu see Hye-sun the first thing he mention is about the money because Hye-sun borrowed money from him and messed up his life.The reason I dislike this scene is because the moment was a very urgent moment , but he still thinking about the money so from here we can know how much he love money.The motive Suk-gyu helping Ki-Woong to survive is only want to approaching Hye-sun.All Suk gyu did is only want to achieve his purpose.


Fourth, the government do not let people come into the safe area.They use smoke and water to force people climb into safe area.The worst thing is they even use gun to shot the person who trying to climb over the safe area.The government is very selfish because they do not care about the people who still trying very hard to only survive.This is one of the issue in our society which is civilians are the lower class people if there is anything happen civilians are the people who come to the first to prevent something happen.


The last scene I dislike is the main character Hye-sun also become a zombie at the end of the movie. The main character Hye-sun is trying very hard to escape from the zombies. Every time she is almost bitten by those zombies and at the end of the movie she become a zombie also. The reason I dislike this scene is because it’s like our life, every time we trying to do something must be facing a lot of obstacle. We will solve all the problem like she escape from those zombies. We all waiting Hye-sun could be the person survive until the end of the movie but unfortunately she can’t do it.

In conclusion, the movie all is based on our humanity. I dislike this 5 scenes is because the society setting is too reality. I do hope our society still warm and not that cruel. Although there are 5 scenes I don’t like but there are still have some of the people who are good in the movie.

Train to Busan is directed by Yeon Sang-ho and release on 13 May 2016.The genres of this movie is horror movie. Horror movie may cause the audiences feel intense repugnance, fear, or dread. Britannica, T. E. (2013, August 30). Horror film. The purpose I writing this review is to discuss about this movie is different compare to the other Horror film. There are a lot of subgenres of horror movie for example unnatural, psychological and Massacre. Train to Busan is under unnatural category which is bodily mutilations/mutations Blood suckers, pests, creatures growing within the body, altering the normal body states. Train to Busan under unnatural category is because of the special make up effect. The effect of postmodernism bring a lot of differences compare with the normal horror film.
