Alice Sep 04 2023 8:44 am I love love this movie. I've watched it more than 3 times!

it's not only about zombies..it’s more about the family bonding, community.

1) about family bonds (many funny and touching scenes). 2) A lot of comedy 3) A little romance between the teenage girl and the zombie (i ship team in reality). 4) Perfect acting from the actors and actresses. 5) Really perfect plot, acting, etc.

Monette Jun 27 2022 10:28 am I find it heart warming and a tear jerker movie. It made me realize that family will always be as one. Moral of the story also is to keep helping others in need without any expectations, soon you'll harvest the fruit of being kind.

Chrystivani Mar 31 2019 10:25 pm Because of THIS!! I brave myself to watch Zombie Start right now..

milli Mar 24 2019 5:18 pm This movie really really really fcking funny! WKWK

tess Mar 17 2019 12:30 am Maybe it's because I went in with no expectations (cos the film bombed quite badly in S.Korea), but I found The Odd Family quite a satisfying, witty little film. While it has no pretensions to art or even realism, it is actually very well put together, with rather gorgeous cinematography, and writing and editing that puts across the story and characters very clearly. All the actors do an excellent job - even the ones inclined towards going OTT, like Kim Nam Gil and Jung Jae Young, manage to rein themselves in to present distinctive characters responding plausibly to the situation. As for its genre credentials, I've got to admit it's not at all scary, but I'm not sure why some viewers think it isn't funny. I thought the set-up and the various scenarios were pretty hilarious; more importantly, IMO the laughs kind of emerged organically from the set-up, which I felt was a sign of pretty sophisticated writing. Oh well, different strokes...

WTF!!! Mar 16 2019 3:09 am OMG! The Zombie is so cute. Not even kidding. Jung Garam, hope to see your work more. Quite a few heart fluttering scene. The Train to Busan reference is funny though. Hahaha. This movie is well suited for spring season. Don't worry, its not your cliche zombie movie. Quite a few refreshing scene. At least for me. Its a horror/comedy. Recommend watching.

__ Feb 22 2019 4:02 am like Warm Bodies 2013 movie

mimsy Jul 13 2018 6:38 am Strange family? More like a strange and wonderful cast combining respected veterans with talented youngsters. (And Kim Nam Gil.) And a first-time director too. Sounds really interesting, but also risky. Good luck everyone and hope this turns out well!
