About

You’ll like #Alive if you enjoy tense, isolated survival stories and zombie outbreaks with strong performances and intense moments; Not for you if isolation feels too drawn out or you need clearer outbreak explanations, similar in tone to Train to Busan or Seoul Station.

Pros: gripping survival tension; realistic effects; standout performance | Cons: pacing feels uneven; unclear virus details; upbeat music mismatch
