I enjoyed every bonkers, goofy, cartoonish, creative moment of Snowpiercer.
Full reviewFuturistic sci-fi actioner from Bong Joon-Ho (The Host), starring Chris Evans, Tilda Swinton, Octavia Spencer and Ed Harris. In a future where a failed global-warming experiment kills off most life on Earth, a class system evolves among the few survivors aboard the Snowpiercer - a train that travels around the globe via a perpetual-motion engine. Based on French comic Le Transperceneige.

Full reviewAt last... a fun dystopian sci-fi epic - a splattery shambles with a fat dose of social satire and barely a lick of sense.
Full reviewThe future is miserably dystopian as usual in this apocalyptic sci-fi thriller, but at least it's thoughtful, stylishly crafted, high-speed misery...
Full reviewA spectacular, visceral yet thoughtful vision of a future almost at hand.
Full reviewRarely does a vision so ambitious and raw hit the screen with such clarity and force.
Full reviewAssumes an irresistible momentum, accelerated by nonstop mayhem, gallows humour and an immersive visual style...
Full reviewPlanetary destruction and human extinction happen a half-dozen times every summer. It's rarely this refreshing, though.
Full reviewWorks brilliantly, the sum of extremely disparate parts that adds up to cinematic excellence.
Full reviewProjecting the problems of today into a science-fiction tomorrow, this also ties them to a compelling story that keeps shifting under its characters' feet.
Full reviewAn intellectually and artistically superior vehicle to many of the end-of-days futuristic action thrillers out there.
