Review:

Snowpiercer is a 2013 action movie directed by Bong Joon-Ho where the world is frozen and inhabitable to live so survived people live on a very long train where people struggles to live.

In today's modern world the society is divided into different classes. The first class enjoys all types of luxuries in their life whereas the third class just spend their whole life in an attempt to fulfil their basic need.

Every element in the movie is presented in such a way that one can relate to something in their life. The train can be related to life as a journey. As the world is inhabitable, the entire world is fit into the train. Shopping Mall, Disco, Tailor, swimming pool garden, bar, etc is placed into the train. Facilities and luxuries are given place inside the train for rich but for poor people miserable life.

There are different sections on the train. The most underprivileged is given less space. The tail section struggles to live and also angry with the treatment of front section people.

The revolt initiated by Mr Curtis is the struggle of underprivileged people to have a better life. The first-class people possess all types of resources and can easily suppress the poor people by using their advantages. The same thing is in real life. The third class people struggle never ends. Instead the gap between rich and poor are increasing.

Nobody works for the welfare of the people rather they work for their own interest.

Every upcoming event is thrilling and full of surprises in the movie. The way the excitement of a particular scene is enhanced, by using slow motion and expression of the actors, is quite amazing. The movie presents the harsh reality of the modern world in the plot of a running train with simplicity.
