#Alive hardly tries to do something new, and leaves its few surprises to a loud jump scare here, or a nifty zombie kill there. Go to Full Review

J H @UpstateNYThriller 1d 3/10 Korean zombie movie, slow See more Dom D @ReallyDude 4d Of all the zombie movies, this is one of the better ones. I hate zombies and the idea of them but this has some interesting stuff happen at least. I know Korean so it helps me a bit with understanding certain things more as well. If you like zombies its 5/5 but if you like movies and tolerate zombies or even hate them, its a 3/5 at best.

See more Swati B @Swatii Jul 3 Alive is an uncompromising and deeply moving tribute to those who survived the "Miracle of the Andes." While it occasionally struggles with the massive scale of its true-life source material, it remains an essential watch for anyone interested in high-stakes survival stories that focus on moral resilience over simple spectacle.
