Gree, maybe The Revolution Betrayed, you know, the book the movie was based on.

shit smeared on toilet paper is the closest thing to a book similar to snowpiercer you will ever find
Memes aside, is this movie worth watching? Sounds like it has potential but I don't know anybody who's seen it.

I saw it on a flight from the UK to the US and thought it was afwul, but I couldn't really see/hear it entirely.
Sorry, incredibly vague, but if no one else responds there you go.

No. It is a pile of pretentious and very forced bullshit. I'm continually baffled that people who review movies for a living give it praise.
I'm convinced that everyone that enjoyed this movie hasn't watched a lot of films or they think because they "understand" what an allegory is that it makes them smart and consequently makes the movie smart.
You know that your movie is shit when "it's an allegory, bro" is the main argument for any of the hundred issues in the movie. (and this isn't me arguing against about the impracticality of the train, it's an accumulation of smaller, scene-by-scene issues)
I will say that it's at least got good technical work and is aesthetically pleasing.
Considering it is Hunger Games on a Train and without the games, Hunger Games. This is something that tries to invite an audience of morons into adapting the posture of intellectuals. Kind of like Inception, but really really shitty and transparent.

High-Rise by Ballard is amazing. The film that's coming out next year is really really good too.

it was pretty good. it moves pretty quickly. the fights are good. the whole thing is a metaphor about the rich shitting on the poor to live and you either, you know, become the villain you rage against or elect not to play the game at all.
good fight scenes. also ed harris' like concubine or whatever is a qt

It's an extremely shitty movie, in ways you can only appreciate by watching it yourself.

It's silly but fun. I enjoyed the Terry-Gilliam-makes-an-action-movie atmosphere.

Anon may have seen it at a festival, or it may have leaked from a festival.
I've read the comic book it's based on and it's quite good. Can't really remember the movie altough I knew some guys in film school who had to analyse a fight scene about it.
any films that unapologetically advocate for aristocracy and class division?
pretty tired of these impotent revolution fantasies (of course produced by the very people who have destroyed any revolutionary sentiment)

All of the biggest film producing sectors exist in countries built on tearing down those two things. If you find such a film, it will be underfunded and indie as fuck.

Yeah I saw it at a festival. It captured the book perfectly and is probably Ben Wheatley's best film.

The Batman Trilogy by Nolan

I think if you liked that movie you would like The Scar by China Meilleivildlillle
