Variety wrote, “Craft contributions are top-drawer, especially breakneck editing by Yang Jin-mo, who raises suspense to nearly unbearable levels.”

 

Maggie Lee, a film critic, stated, “With a Mers epidemic [Middle East respiratory syndrome] sweeping South Korea in 2015 and soaring discontent with corruption and economic disparity, a zombie apocalypse serves as a potent allegory for the dog-eat-dog world.”

 

“Often chaotic but never disorienting, the movie’s spirited set pieces — like a wriggling ribbon of undead clinging doggedly to the last compartment — owe much to Lee Hyung-deok’s wonderfully agile cinematography.”, Jeannette Catsoulis wrote in a New York Times review.

 

IndieWire calls the movie “a high-speed collision between Snowpiercer and World War Z”.
