Snowpiercer (2013)

  I had intended to watch this weeks ago but the copy I had on the server was missing subtitles.  90% of the movie is in English but there are a couple of characters who only speak Korean.

In the near future, an attempt to correct global warming leads to a catastrophic event that freezes the planet.  Humanity's only survivors exist on a train that is in constant movement.  Onboard, there is a distinct gap between the head of the train and the tail section.  The wretched masses in the tail revolt under the leadership of Curtis (Chris Evans).  Other revolutions have been attempted but Curtis has something the others lacked:  a key.  Namgoong (Kang-ho Song) helped design the security locks on the train before being locked up for drug addiction.  Along the way, however, Curtis learns some very unpleasant truths regarding the nature of continued survival.  Everything has its price.

I liked this film.  I know there were a lot of detractors.  Honestly, though, I thought it was really solid.  Chris Evans did a great job and there were a lot of really neat imaginative touches throughout.  It had some shades of Oldboy but not enough to ever feel derivative.  It's worth a watch.
