While it’s always interesting to see how an age-old genre can be reinvigorated, this new ​“development” isn’t nearly revolutionary enough to hang a two-hour film on. Go to Full Review Ritesh Mehta IndieWire May 17

Yeon might be a very good student of the genre, and the deck he crafts is often masterful. It’s just that the communication lessons and memory of human loss don’t hit hard enough. Go to Full Review Casey Chong Fortress of Solitude 3d
3.5/5
Yeon Sang-ho’s long-awaited return to the zombie genre blends an engrossingly conceptual premise with thrilling zombie action and Jun Ji-hyun’s scene-stealing performance. Go to Full Review Sean Boelman FandomWire 3d
5/10
Colony should be a return-to-form for Yeon Sang-ho in the zombie genre, but it frustratingly lacks any of the things that made his other two zombie films so great. Go to Full Review Joonatan Itkonen Region Free 5d
4/5
Clever and unexpected, if never quite scary, Colony is a thrilling zombie romp from one of the masters of the genre. Go to Full Review Mariona Borrull Fotogramas 5d
3/5
Yeon Sang-ho's film is seasoned with layers upon layers of references to other zombie franchises, familiar images reimagined like a pop hit. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews
