Snowpiercer (2020–2024)

After a great movie a great series! Luckily I didn't listen to the negative reviews.

[9/10 · 13 November 2020]

I can't believe I almost passed on this brilliant show. I loved the movie when it came out in 2013. To me it was for sure one of the better movies from that year, and I watch tons of movies. Bong Joon Ho did a great job with Snowpiercer. So when I read all those very negative reviews about this new series, that it was unbelievably dissapointing, so bad etc... I almost decided not to waste my time with it, but then again I remembered how many times I watched great movies that were badly rated on IMDb that I decided to give it a shot. I'm so happy I did that, as this series is a fresh breath of air, completely what I hoped for after that brilliant movie. Not only is it extremely well made but the story is well thought of, keeps you wondering in suspense what will happen next. It's one of those series I can't help but binge watch. Brilliant acting from a large part of the cast, especially Jennifer Connelly. The first season flew by, it's now waiting impatiently for the next season in the hope it's of the same quality as this brilliant first season. I'm not going to write everything is perfect, like some of the rooms look too big to be in a train, but it's for sure entertaining if you can look beside futile things like that. In short, don't pay any attention to the negative reviews if you loved the movie from Bong Joon Ho. You won't be disappointed!
