Grisly eye-opening, viciously violent and social-commentary-gold make Snowpiercer a sci-fi-action-gem that speaks a worldy-view on social-class divides. This visionary tale of Bong Joon-ho's creation is beautifully shot, tensely written and filled with captivating performances from Evans and Swinton; all ingredients palpable of sanctifying this film as one of the director's personal bests. 4.52/5

I really liked this movie much more than I anticipated great action and a great story from a film that from the trailer didn't excite me all that much.

A very unique action Sci-Fi-film that is unlike anything you've seen before. The unpredictable plot and fascinating location already make sure of that but the outstanding look adds another layer of oddness. The sudden bursts of violence are almost physically hurting for the spectator, yet you can't look away from this fascinating and challenging film.

Ugh! Despair, Depression and Hopelessness all served up in 80% darkness. What kind of entertainment is that? None would be the answer. A very few beautiful visual is not enough to compensate for the endless gloom.
