hyped garbage

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

This movie demonstrated that Hollywood can learn a lot from the modern South Korean cinema. Everything Hollywood does, Asians seem to do better. This allegorical movie about the social order is perhaps a bit short on its main premise, but it really does not matter that much. Infinitely more intelligent than its Hollywood counterparts, it is one smart action movie that sets the standard for Hollywood to follow.

Its a movie of deep philosophical understanding . This movie question Core social Quota and Its system. You can compare it with your country or Government .If you deserve some captain America type action from Chris Evan , Its not for you Its plot ask a deeper question to the viewer about reality ,government,economy,punishment, and law .The trains mother engine is keeping everybody alive in a disciplined manner but question arise how you define the law and equality . The plot motto can be " when injustice became the law resistance becomes the duty ' ( sometime created by the system for its interest), ln the end the resistance can destroy a fully functional system with much destructive power . Its may be not perfect but who knows the future will may repeat or learn . Thanks go to the writer , director and Chris evan . Will inspire generations ahead . Is my system is broken ?

Bizarrely, almost criminally, 'Snowpiercer (2013)' never got either a theatrical or a home-video release in the U.K., despite being a bona fide multinational, though somewhat smaller, studio picture. Yet, it is easily one of the smartest and most entertaining science-fiction films this side of the decade. The central dystopian conceit isn't entirely unique, yet feels fresh enough thanks to some exciting injections of bold ideas and daringly dark implications. The action is sometimes a little too shaky to be entirely legible, but when it becomes stripped back and focused on tension - in a brilliant, pulse-pounding sauna sequence - it really gets you on the edge of your seat. The feature also isn't afraid to showcase its odd, satirical quirks or settle down for a slower third act that's mostly dialogue driven. It really is a diverse offering to others in the genre. 7/10

This movie was... interesting. There were some nice ideas and concepts in there, but ultimately it just made a big mess inside my head. And I'm not going to pick out plot holes because hell, just read any of the other reviews on this page. But combined, they felt a bit distracting.The art and style is great. The whole thing is interestingly designed, and certain motifs like the big W logo come together at the ending when the main plot twist is revealed. Some of the character design may be a little goofy, but it fits with the overall tone. A lot of this movie is very visually attractive and the actors do a good job of keeping the narrative going. The choice of bilingual dialogue is an interesting one too, and not something which is used often enough in cinema, in my opinion.The trouble, the way I see it, is that most of the tropes in this film, dystopian or otherwise, have been handled better in other films.The population is controlled by both the top level and the bottom level being controlled in unison, leading to regular revolts by the lower class which are ultimately doomed to failure while still allowing room for the cycle to continue. That's basically the same premise as the latter two Matrix films.A dystopian society is subdivided into a starving and oppressed lower class who live in abject poverty and a flamboyantly dressed upper class who seemingly do little else but engage in mindless hedonism. That's essentially the worldbuilding from The Hunger Games.Brainwashing people with pseudo-religious propaganda to believe the person in charge is some kind of benevolent and merciful overlord... I can't think of an example offhand but I know I've seen that before.I was honestly surprised when those protein blocks the lower class were eating weren't rebranded soylent green. Though I have to wonder where they got all the roaches from. Were they farming them?All that said, a lot of good plot setups and payoffs are there in the writing. The drug is an explosive, the matches save the day twice, the uncomfortable regularity of characters losing limbs, and so on. Most of the plots and arcs are well constructed and you genuinely do feel empathy for some of the characters, making for some sad moments when they met their ends. The trouble is that the ending felt... Derailing. Pun intended. Giving it a full on Blake's 7 ending made a lot of the movie's main conflict feel a little pointless in hindsight. And why was there a polar bear on top of the mountain? They hunt seals.Additionally the whole thing about Curtis not wanting to lose his arm as a character arc feels a little tacked on TBH. But that's probably what happens when you squeeze most of a character arc into the final act of a story. Also, dammit Chris Evans, what is it with you getting limbs stuck in machinery at the end of movies?Overall, this movie feels more Waterworld than Fury Road, as far as dystopian stories go. It's worth watching as an entertaining and slightly larger than life action movie, as long as you don't pay too much attention to the finer details. But it certainly won't be for everyone.
