I read the reviews here before watching this movie. Some were a little harsh, others were way too kind. This movie was all over the place. The editing has much less to be desired. As someone else mentioned, it's like they skipped about 15 minutes between some cuts. Making you wonder, "How did they get there?" And, "Where did those people come from?" And they were inconsistent. If you are like me, and notice (whether you want to or not) little things, this might bother you. Eg. Injury on one side of the head at first, then cut to another scene, and the injury is on the opposite side. Cut to another scene, and the injury is back on the original side. The CG was pretty good. But it doesn't carry the story. Storyline had potential, but the way they cut it, diminished it for me. So, if you have nothing else to watch, are fan of Korean action movies, and want to see something to help you go to sleep (not that this is a boring movie), why not. I didn't fall asleep, and it didn't make me regret watching it. I call these "Filler" movies. And if you can watch it with english dub, do so. Some foreign movies are better when watching with original language, and subtitles. This one doesn't make a difference. It would probably be easier to watch in english. So you can at least hear what's being said, while grabbing some munchies, make coffee, or check email. No need to pause. lol

Tries to be to many things and fail in each. absurd after absurd. thought its gonna be volcano disaster movie but nope. and why hamburgers calling shots on south korea land?

I was so looking forward to another great disaster movie from South Korea, and a volcano disaster movie as a bonus, since I haven't seen a good volcano movie since 'Dante's Peak' back in 1997. Unfortunately, 'Ashfall' is not what I was looking for. 'Ashfall' can't decide what it wants to be. Is it comedy, drama, disaster, war movie, or crime thriller? There are too much humor for anything to be taken seriously. They even attempt emotional scenes, but these fail miserably. There are also so many characters and back stories that I completely forgot about the volcano. There's too little volcano action to call this a disaster movie. Apart from the opening scene and the climax, there's hardly any mention-able volcano activity. The film also blends ideas from 'San Andreas', 'Geostorm', 'Tidal Wave' and 'Pompeii' to no avail. It is completely unbelievable and unconvincing. The situations the characters find themselves in are not always believable, and their actions are questionable. The team sent to activate the detonators are complete idiots and incompetent. The visuals are also mediocre. There's no suspense here and very little that really excited me.

If this movie was solely made for destruction and action escape sequences like most of Hollywood movies does with no logic this movie did it bad. i watched this movie solely for the story line and expected a lot but all ended with a whimper.

There are kots of highlights for the near apocalyptic action genre lovers, but the story and plot are mostly undeveloped and pretty unhinged most of the time. the cataclysmic phases made on vfx and cgi are merely fine, but the way the human story is told its extremely mediocre and a very big nuclear wasted anti climax of a volcanic meltdown. good production, average acting, terrible story and geopolitical disaster, thinks the grumpy old man, but its still a recommend

THIS IS THE CAT!!!!! Anyway,intro's done.Let's begin. This...is quite simple to review.It is a blockbuster. To be precise,a blockbuster is a film type that is mostly followed by several characteristics- -huge budgets -huge financial gain -heavy use of CGI and special effects -famous actors and actress -basic,rudimentary,unoriginal storylines -morally pure protagonists. -pg-13 -positive endings -large action sequences Basically,this film has it all.

A volcano is about to destroy half of Korea and who does the government send? A "special forces" team of completely incompetent idiots who unintentionally fire their guns and panick when a bad guy gives them an angry look. The rest is a barrage of slightly bad to really bad CGI and a neverending series of increasingly uninteresting action scenes to make up for the lack of character and plot development. About halfway through I was looking at the time and wondering when it would finally be over. Don't bother.
