Did you ever watch a movie where the victims were the people you were supposed to root for, yet by the end of the movie you were actually rooting for the villains? That's what happens here in snowpiercer. The lead hero does things that makeDid you ever watch a movie where the victims were the people you were supposed to root for, yet by the end of the movie you were actually rooting for the villains? That's what happens here in snowpiercer. The lead hero does things that make no sense, and the idea of a rebellion loses its steam quickly as you sit and grow weary of watching him. Jennifer Connelly does a wonderful job of portraying the lead villain, even though technically she is not a villain. All in all, you can watch if you're bored, but the sense of wokenness that is forced upon you with the series tends to eliminate any real desire to appreciate what the cast is trying to create. You're better off finding another series if you can.… Expand

Review after 5 episodes. Snowpiercer doesnt quite deliver, but it has some very interesting things. I like the class system, and the setting on a train is good.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. A science fiction story that deals with profound themes that, unfortunately, are more current than ever. The struggle for equality is, in fact, the central theme of the story. The narration proceeds at a pace that is a little too slow and diluted for my taste, and then takes off at the beginning of the revolution. For a series dealing with such themes, I did not appreciate the many trash moments, like the splatter during the fights, horrible and absolutely out of place for such a moment. All in all an enjoyable series, although there is much better around!… Expand

It was an OK 7 until they started ramping up the woke talking points. There are worse shows to watch but it isn't as good as it used to.

I don't know what really to think of this.

This series takes the critically acclaimed film by Bong Joon Ho and builds a world around it, which is totally unnecessary, given, that the original Snowpiercer was just an allegory for capitalism, to put it simply. The original movie thrived from its surreal aesthetic, its over-the-top depiction of class structures, this is not really the case here.
The length of the episodes and the number of them is totally unnecessary, because most of the time they are just plain boring. Only the first and last few episodes are somewhat interesting to watch, but so much just feels like filler.
I will not watch a second season of this.… Expand

Season 3 is an utter disappointment so far. I haven't enjoyed a single episode. Why does every TV series dive deep into effects of trauma, PTSD, and show 'ears ringing' state in every other scene? We get it: it's a miserable, hopeless world.Season 3 is an utter disappointment so far. I haven't enjoyed a single episode. Why does every TV series dive deep into effects of trauma, PTSD, and show 'ears ringing' state in every other scene? We get it: it's a miserable, hopeless world. However, as a viewer, I want to see the story move forward. Stop waddling in character development at the expense of furthering the plot.… Expand

One of my favorite shows to date! A shame they made it so hard to watch season 4 as it being an HBO max exclusive or Uk Netflix only. They would have had much larger view count.
