I just finished watching the movie Snowpiercer(2014). Morally devoid and conceptually stupid. After having watched Frontline about ISIS earlier in the evening, with all the unnecessary snuff film footage, Snowpiercer was brutal. The basic plot, that you can wantonly kill people with all the latest first-person-shooter-game violence you can think of, for the sake of balancing the population, is just simply barbarous high school thinking.
Since a shocking 95% of critical reviews are positive, I can only think that this is another symptom of the corruption of civilization that leads to it’s demise. You make think that that statement is overblown, but hey, doesn’t any frog in the pot of hot water say, “ribbit – I think it’s getting hot in here”.
