Alienoid – Protectors of the Future (2022) is a good example. This blockbuster took two years to be distributed directly to us on video.

Between past and future, and while we walk from one era to anotherthe diptych Alienoid quickly lost its audience. And despite a quick reminder of events earlier inAlienoid: The Showdowndifficult at the beginning to follow everything perfectly. But in the end, what does it matter? Because this superproduction focuses above all on great spectacle and the mixing of genres. Sure, the first part is a bit talkative, but it doesn’t take long to get carried away this explosive and uninhibited entertainment which has nothing to envy from American productions. Like an impressive fight on a train, which is only the first part of an even crazier finale.
As for the casting, we are happy to find out Ryu Jun-yeol and Kim Tae-riwho play Muruk and Ean, respectively, stuck in 1380. The former ended the previous film by being infected by an alien, while the latter went in search of the ship that could take her back to the present. Although we think we can guess what will happen next, Alienoid: The Showdown never ceases to amaze plot twists concerning these two main characters. But not only that. As proof of director Choi Dong-hoon’s desire to constantly relaunch his plot, even the very secondary protagonists prove decisive for the final confrontation.
