One viewer wroe: ‘Nothing special, but watchable.’
Another admitted: ‘I found it hard to watch’.
They were referring to the Netflix series Snowpiercer, which centres on planet Earth in 2026, seven years after it has frozen over, meaning that the last surviving humans live on a giant train circling the globe.
However, humanity is now struggling to co-exist amid the sheer number of people and the chaos it causes on board.
Designed by the eccentric billionaire Mr. Wilford, the train consists of 1,001 carriages and circles the globe 2.7 times per year.
Since the catastrophe, the train’s population has become rigidly separated by class, caught up in a revolutionary struggle against the strictly imposed social hierarchy and unbalanced allocation of limited resources.

It stars Jennifer Connelly as Melanie Cavill, who is the train’s announcer and Head of Hospitality – meaning she must ensure smooth relations on the train.
Daveed Diggs plays the role of Andre Layton, an ex-detective-turned-leader of the Tail, a group of passengers who boarded the train by force without tickets and are treated poorly as a result, often having their food, water, and electricity taken away.
Micky Sumner also features – as Bess Till – a brakeman who forms part of the train’s security force.
Having originally been released by American network TNT in 2020, the show ran for three seasons, before a fourth was commissioned by AMC earlier this year, and is currently broadcasting on the network.
