Matthew B One thing about the Koreans, they sure know how to make one hell of a zombie movie. And this is no exception. I Am a Hero satisfies all of the typical zombie movie urges while being unique enough to feel fresh and entertaining. We follow our protagonist Hideo, a struggling manga artist as he overcomes his insecurities and ultimately becomes the hero he wrote about so many times in his stories. Along the way he meets a girl whom has been infected with the zombie virus, but is half immune to its effects... rendering her still alive and able to control herself but also giving her the special strength that comes with being infected. Once Hideo comes across a band of survivors who have built a sanctuary on the rooftops of some outdoor strip malls, he must protect his infected friend from the tyrannical leadership of said survivors. The acting is solid, the plot is interesting, the design of the infected is done extremely well with there being a large handful of unique zombies with seemingly different personalities and abilities, creating some high stakes moments that will both creep you out but also worry for the characters you've come to care for. This film will also satisfy your bloodlust... especially the major bloodbath in the end of the film. Highly recommend this one. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Jose Raul B As a movie from the genre horror/zombies, it is well made and has some details that makes it unique. However its plot could have been better. Very appropiate for a sunday. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/24/24 Full Review SIGFRI Wasn't the best of its genre but when you really stop to look at the details put into the film. I found some of the "comically undertones" charming and at times hilarious! Excellent Take on the Zombie Genre! GENUINELY FUNNY! TERRIFYING AT TIMES! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/01/23 Full Review RenFA It is an awesome movie, highly recommend it unless you're scared of gore because there's alot of blood in this one. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/15/23 Full Review chris f This somehow both fails as an adaption of the source material, and fails to be an exciting zombie film. Which is impressive! The source material is so solid and good, you'd think it'd be impossible to mess this up. But this is an example of a movie-series being too hasty to try to capitalize on a source material's success, only to flop its way into theaters. The fact that this is as highly rated as it is is a travesty. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Ateesh J An Interesting take on a zombie movie. Really enjoyed it.
