"Snowpiercer," based on the French graphic novel "Le Transperceneige," is set in a future where, after a failed experiment to stop global warming, an Ice Age kills off all life on the planet except for the inhabitants of the Snow Piercer, a train that travels around the globe and is powered by a sacred perpetual-motion engine. A class system evolves on the train but a revolution brews.

MOVIE REVIEW

A train, home to the last remnants of humanity, barrels through an icy apocalypse in Snowpiercer, the new action-thriller from Bong Joon-ho (The Host). Exciting and unpredictable, Snowpiercer is a refreshing change of pace from the typical Hollywood fare, though plot holes and other inconsistencies occasionally knock it off the rails.
