J. Hoberman The New York Review of Books A madcap addition to the comic-book-derived movies that have dominated cinematic summer fare. Mar 28, 2017 Full Review David Sims The Atlantic That rare experience you don't get to have much in the summer anymore, a loud, clanging, original action flick that's grabbing you by the lapels and yelling in your ears. Sep 22, 2016 Full Review Jim Slotek Toronto Sun It's a wicked, violent parable, and one of the only movies of the summer worth talking about after the credits roll. Rated: 4.5/5 Jan 2, 2015 Full Review Diana Tuova Spotlight on Film Snowpiercer is a mix of something unfathomable, subversive, thought-provoking and thrilling.
