Review: Full with bonus features! - I'd vote this movie as the best adaptation from comics movie ever! I'll make a review on the bonus disc. As for the movie, I believe others have reviewed better. There are many bonus features on the 2nd disc. From pictures, sketches, story boards, interviews with actors, etc. I was very impressed with behind the scenes. We can see how the stage was built. We can also see the comic book adaptation process, incl interview with comic artist Jean-Marc Rochette. Rochette even got involved in the movie, as the illustrator. His works were used by the actor who played as an illustrator in the movie. I also love the place where Rochette was interviewed. it was the library of Angouleme Comics Museum, France. In case you don't know, Angouleme is the most prestigious comic festival in Europe. We also get some parts on Jacques Lob, the visionary and writer of the comic book. Unfortunately he passed away many years ago. Another footage was the premiere screening in South Korea. I love seeing the enthusiast audience, and they love meeting Rochette. Asking for autographs, pictures, etc. Something that Rochette told us, not usually happened in France. I can see how Korean people admired and respected the movie and also the book. There was even a scene when Rochette was having a cup of coffee in a shop, while waiting for his driver. The coffee lady, around 50's I think, asked for Rochette's autograph. She said she has seen the movie and very liked it. Other footage was interview with Bong Joon Ho, the director. Honestly, I'm not impressed on the questions the host gave. It should be better than that, and it was very common. Get this bluray while you can. There are other editions. But this one has the bonus disc and you won't regret having it! Review: Snowpiercer - a beautifully graphic derivation from classic genres that make it a masterpiece! - If you are a filmmaker or you appreciate a film that is derivative of classic literature, history, and the class system, watch Snowpiercer! The concept for Snowpiercer originated in a french graphic novel "Le Transperceneige" created in the early 80's - a time in history when the Cold War was beginning to thaw, liberty was taking over the world, and the concept of pollution was turning into a global cause. Korean Director Bong Joon-ho (my new director hero) stumbled on to an illegal Korean translation of Le_Transperceneige in a book store and he read it in its entirety once he cracked it open. I've been extremely fortunate in my life to study films from around the world since my mother taught literature and film, and wrote a book on world cinema. Many of today's filmmakers will acknowledge influence by contemporary or modern greats such as the likes of Scorsese, Spielberg, Hitchcock, and Kurosawa, when they don't know any of the films that inspired these greats. Within Snowpiercer, first and foremost, I see 1925's USSR film "Battleship Potemkin," then Germany's 1927 incredible expressionistic film "Metropolis," and then France's "Germinal," first put to screen in 1913, with numerous remakes, including my favorite version from 1993 starring Gérard Depardieu who's performance was brilliant. There are other influences, particularly some German films from UFA in the 30's and 40's, and topping off with an ending that's typical of the French New Wave. Snowpiercer presents poverty at its worst, a class system that is evil, and a time and place where industry has destroyed the world. This movie is amazing and brilliant. Not allowing this movie to have a wide release in the USA was a huge mistake, and the release company just had absolutely no idea or clue as to what they actually had. This film will slowly circulate and people will see it, and its brilliance will be eventually be known. If you ever have a chance, see the old films I mentioned. You will be shocked as to how the themes and concepts of these films have survived in filmmaking today. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 2,948 Reviews | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | LIONSGATE | | Number Of Discs | 1 | | UPC | 031398342311 | ## Images ![Snowpiercer [4K UHD] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81aTFMnRbzL.jpg) ![Snowpiercer [4K UHD] - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/813-QcGed1L.jpg) ![Snowpiercer [4K UHD] - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51rICjtOncL.jpg) ![Snowpiercer [4K UHD] - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91q37Y7ELYL.jpg) ![Snowpiercer [4K UHD] - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81sJyp6IdIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Full with bonus features! *by S***O on January 28, 2016* I'd vote this movie as the best adaptation from comics movie ever!

Post-apocalyptic and full of weird characters.” And that sums it up for me. Remember all the odd-ball characters (good and bad) in THE ROAD WARRIOR. And the relative normality and stoicism that Mel Gibson displayed in contract to all the craziness around him. SNOWPIERCER, for me, evoked a similar reaction. It is not as good as THE ROAD WARRIOR, but it was still a lot of fun. The concept is that this train, SNOWPIERCER, contains all that is left of humanity after an attempt to stop global warming backfired and froze the planet. And the train must keep going all the time, because of its perpetual motion engine. And just to make is a microcosm of our world, the train is very much divided into classes, with the poor, unwashed huddled masses literally huddling unwashed in the back few cars of the train, and the upper-class living in luxury near the front. In between are soldiers and engineering-types that keep order and help keep things running. Apparently, over the 17 years since the end of the world, there have been several failed attempts by the poor folks to make it to the front of the train. And now, they’re ready to try again, led by a somewhat reluctant (and relatively normal) Chris Evans. When the soldiers come to take a couple of young kids away from their parents for purposes unknown, this serves as a precipitating event for the rebellion. Evans is joined by the gung-ho Jamie Bell, a wizened, gravelly-voiced John Hurt type of character (played by John Hurt, doing the role he always does these days), a rescue and revenge minded mother (Octavia Spencer) and a motley crew of rebels. They begin to fight their way up, car by car, and with each new move forward, new secrets and surprises about the train, its operation and its inhabitants is revealed. There are lots of action scenes, and they are quite violent. But they aren’t particularly gory (I know some folks have a lower threshold for what equals gory than I do)…there are lots of stabbings and axe blows, but very little is actually shown. But believe me, it’s violent enough. It reminded me, at times, of 300 and sometimes of THE RAID (although not as brilliantly choreographed). These scenes were done well enough, BUT weren’t really the most compelling thing about the film. The slow process of revealing secrets was most interesting, as well as the wonderful art direction. Each train car has its own personality, and some are quite twisted and some are quite lovely. I have to admit, my favorite part of the movie was Tilda Swinton. Playing the powerful spokesperson for the leader of the train, she is amazingly loony and oddly funny. From her gloriously crooked teeth to her thick glasses to her amusing sidebars…she’s terrify and amusing. Chris Evans makes a nice contrast to her…and I think it’s his best performance. He’s not known for being the world’s greatest actor, but he gets a couple of very effective, emotional monologues in this film, and nails them. He’s always been an affable guy (who doesn’t like him as Captain America), but in this film, he brings some grit to his role and it suits him well. Weaknesses? Well, even with all the great revealing of secrets throughout, we never quite figure out how or why the poor folks came to be on the train when hell was freezing over. The visual rendering (via CGI) of the landscape outside the train shows the budgetary limitations…although I feel a bit silly complaining about this when the interior of the train looked so awesome. And you’d better have a TV that can handle dark scenes (my new one, thankfully, can) because the first 30 minutes of the movie is really quite dark. (More of a warning than a complaint, I guess.) Finally, the end of the film left me a little unsatisfied. It makes some bold choices, which I liked, but contained more ambiguity than I cared for. Not everyone will like SNOWPIERCER. It’s got, perhaps, less action than some might have expected. Others might not like its decidedly oddball characters. And others will dislike the ending. But I enjoyed it a good deal, and very much admired its style and originality. ## Frequently Bought Together - Snowpiercer 4K Digital Steelbook - The Host [Blu-ray] - Mother [Blu-ray] --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co/products/676473519-snowpiercer-4k-uhd](https://www.desertcart.co/products/676473519-snowpiercer-4k-uhd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Colombia* *Store origin: CO* *Last updated: 2026-05-30*
