    There are faint glimmers of a leaner, more confident show that peek through. ... For a show with nearly a 12-hour running time, though, there aren’t nearly enough to break a familiar story’s repetitive cycle.

    The school plotlines really work, in large part thanks to continued ingenuity with the props and sets and the charismatic young cast, with Yoon Chan-young and Cho Yi-Hyun as notable standouts. The show’s weakness, then, lies beyond the labyrinthine school itself as it tries to view the outbreak from the outside in. Watching yet another military take on zombies, no matter how bone-crunchingly sickening the ones in “All of Us Are Dead” are, just isn’t that interesting after seeing so many other TV shows and movies do the same.

    Yet another annoying TV-Show in which characters are annoyingly stupid. Again and Again and again.

    As for the bad news: Everyone else exposed to zombies somehow loses brain cells.

    I'm not saying I won't make mistakes if I'm chased by a zombie horde, I'll probably panic. But that's the problem. A lot of deaths are caused by choices during "calm" moments.
    Example withou spoils: No one makes weapons or try to find weapons. The only character that brought an axe just dropped it or forgot it.

    It basically feels like a reverse plot armor "Someone has to die because it's a zombie show, remember?".

    It's not helped by all the cheap moments "Oh no if only they waited 2 more seconds or turned their head to the left".

    The writing of characters is not great either. A character is either pure evil or pure good, no in between.
    The main cast has some cool and funny characters, thought.

    The plot for season 2 is not looking great either.    … Full Review »
