An Honest Trailer for Snowpiercer

If you loved Parasite and are looking forward to (or have already seen) Mickey 17, you know how good a movie written and/or directed by Bong Joon-ho can be. That's why Screen Junkies went back to make an Honest Trailer for Bong's first English language feature film, 2013's Snowpiercer. Like all of Bong's biggest films, Snowpiercer explores the themes of class and privilege while telling a story that will allow you to think you are ignoring those themes- until the story demands that you pay attention.

Snowpiercer is dystopian science fiction, so its success depends on the viewer finding the premise believable, no matter how ridiculous. And this one is quite ridiculous, as this Honest Trailer makes clear. Yet the movie is enjoyable and thought-provoking, causing you to buy into it. That doesn't mean we can't laugh at how bonkers it is.
