Colony (2026) review

This is how it feels like to have AI agents! Before the actual review, can we just take a moment to ask how the hell Jun Ji-hyun hasn't aged a bit from The Legend of the Blue Sea (2016) to this?! Gagana talaga utak mo because of the scientific aspects and strategic maneuvering. The zombies here feel like an AI agent with DGM-style self-evolving upgrades. They are not just bodies running around. May system, may communication, may upgrade path. Solid cinema crowd reaction too. This is the kind of movie that benefits from people reacting around you. Camera work is good. The movement gives the action enough urgency. And the Atmos sound adds another layer of suspense. It honestly feels like the zombies are breathing down your neck. The sound makes the space feel unsafe. First and third act worked for me. The second act is kinda slow, but the concept and theater experience carried it for me. This was still a fun, satisfying and nail-biting ride.
