Although "Terror Zone" is a fictional story, the situation it reflects is not groundless. The film explores many issues from different angles, environmental protection, social morality, science and dictatorship, social life and military politics. The first half creates a suspenseful and thrilling atmosphere, but the second half falls into personal heroism. The movie’s ending is also a bit hasty. ("Film Critics Association" review)
