2.5/4
It’s gloopy, gory, and greasy, which is all you might want from a zombie movie. But it feels like it wants to do more, and comes up short in the bargain. Go to Full Review

2.5/4
Colony stops just short of capturing the gleefully sustained and heightened sense of suspense that made Train to Busan so electrifying. Go to Full Review
Stephen A. Russell Time Out Jun 9
By the time Colony’s un-Die Hard action swoops into its epic finale, you’ll be whooping and hollering like one of the undead horde. Go to Full Review
Christopher Llewellyn Reed Hammer to Nail 1d
If ever we needed a movie about toxic masculinity being defeated by smart women, that time is now. Go to Full Review
Robin Clifford Reeling Reviews 3d
B
The creativity in animating the vampire-zombies is a step above director Yeon Sang-ho’s first in his zombie franchise, "Train to Busan." That movie, though, is the best in his franchise with its really scary, and fast, monsters. Go to Full Review
Dionar Hidalgo Algo Más Que Cine 6d
6/10
Colony thrives when it embraces gooey, high-octane chaos, but stumbles chasing deeper meaning. Shallow subplots and diluted metaphors hold it back — still, it's a technically sharp, relentlessly fun ride. Go to Full Review
