A good sci-fi story can at least be logically justified. The movie version of Snowpiercer has no BUG that makes people feel abrupt, but the first episode of the TV version has a lot of them, all of which ignore logic to create plot conflicts. It is really difficult. Bear.
Such a big project of doomsday survival, how can the rich and wealthy driver be so wise, and then you turn your head and tell me that there is not even a murder policeman in the car? ? ? Shouldn't there be all kinds of configurations and all kinds of social personnel? And it's the police, the rigid needs of human society, or the apocalyptic world, such a closed-space train without even a decent police officer? Like talk? In the same way, there are also various talents, materials, resources, etc. that are not in the car, and the people in the back of the car need to ask for help. I sneered. Is the story designed and promoted like this, to fool people?
The second point, some of the leading actors are very unpleasant, yes, I am talking about black male protagonists. This actor doesn't have the aura of playing the male lead at all. To put it bluntly, isn't it because he is a black man in reality, and let him play it out of political correctness. The question is whether he can act well. The acting skills are worrying, and it is too much to play supporting roles. And this also leads to another problem. It is unconvincing that such a black man still leads the tail of the car. Let’s cooperate with what happens in the real world. Look, so many white people with red necks will serve you as a big black at the end of the day? Just kidding you. In this context, it is not a group of the same race. To sum up, this male protagonist is too hot for both the character and the actor.
Third, this is disgusting from an Asian audience. Isn't Snowpiercer an adaptation of a Korean movie? Isn't it an Asian movie? What's the matter with the stereotypes and maliciousness of Asians revealed in the video version? Don't look at the Cantonese words of the heroine at the beginning, look at the position of the Chinese man, a gay man, and a white uncle. Please, can't make Asian male characters normal again? Then there's that Asian girl, what's the deal? As soon as she comes on stage, it's the stereotyped position of that mysterious Asian girl. Do you want to dye her hair purple and get some exotic clothes? Why are Asian characters so out of tune with others? In addition, there were very few Asian faces in the car, so I didn't have the thought to find more group performers.
In the first episode of this drama, I couldn't wait to engage in the emotional scenes of the old black male protagonist's ex-wife and current girlfriend, as well as the emotional scenes of the female protagonist. Get some sex scenes or something, seriously slow down the rhythm of science fiction stories, and develop towards dog blood dramas. Overall, I don't like this show.

Just to add, does anyone say homosexuality is not normal? You are discriminating against homosexuals, I don't, I love Brokeback Mountain, and I have absolutely no prejudice against gays and lesbians. What I'm talking about abnormal is that in too many Hollywood movies, there is an Asian man in the whole show, and then there is a gay, white man's partner. A drama is no problem, but this setting is already the norm in Hollywood film and television. It is a kind of play orientation for Asian men, which leads to the kind of Asian men who are all gay, Asian women are white men, and Asian men It's not normal for a white gay man. If there are multiple Asian male characters in a play, and one of them is gay, then OK, the problem is not. Besides, the Asian female character shows PP as soon as she appears. This is soft porn. Is this normal? ? ? When you see a few female characters in the first episode, the female protagonist will not talk about it, she is elitist, the male protagonist's ex-wife is an ordinary woman who is struggling, and her current girlfriend is a strong and good woman. Some soft porn, does that match? This is not the way Hollywood objectifies Asian women, and it is an honor, isn't it?
Why is there a problem with Da Lao Hei? It's not racism. You can get Will Smith to play it, and that's about the same. What's up with this actor? ? He just doesn't look like that. Actors are not ordinary jobs. They have to match the character and be convincing. You can't just find a passerby on the street. Would you find a short fat man to play Captain America? Not that there is any prejudice against Humpty Dumpty, but Humpty Dumpty playing Captain America just wouldn't work. This old black actor is a hip-hop star and has his own traffic. It is not because of this that he has this role, or he is similar to passers-by. And just in this first episode, I really didn't see any charm in this police detective character, even a little bit of charm, but it's really not there, even the image is blurred, does it have any character expression? Not to mention being strong, kind, and thinking about the people at the back of the car, this is all too far. Why is he the leader of the tailgaters? Why do so many people of all kinds believe in him? Just because he used to be a cop? Rush into the car with everyone? Please, too blunt. Thinking about Rick in The Walking Dead (earlier seasons), doesn't it feel better? It's not just about skin color, it's about characters.
Thinking of a few complaints again, are you sure the gang in the show is a security company? You said guns can't be used because they might break the train. Well, where's the stun gun? How about a long steel fork? This whole man has a small machete, and he chops up and down with the back of the car like a young and dangerous boy. What's the matter? I want to laugh at it, what about your equipment? Just about that? The whole show is pretentious. The stronger the enemy is, the more capable the protagonist will appear. The enemy is either a group of NT, the protagonist? ? ?
What is the role of the tail man in the car? They broke into the car, right? These millionaires are a bunch of guys who want to kill your whole family, right? Why keep them in vain, and let them make a revolution or something from time to time ? Shouldn't they have to do some hard work? The movie version is set up pretty well, but where is the moral high line of these people in the TV version? You break in, people are supporting you, do you still have reason? All day long, you want to fight and kill, what do you want to do? Kill all the way from the rear of the car to the front? There are more than 1,000 carriages, are you sure you guys can kill them? After the killing, you occupied the car, can you get it? Even though I knew that the person on the other side was not a good person, but an exploiter, it gave me this impression. Or this is a point that the script wants to discuss, but it really doesn't look good. Now there is not a single person in the back of the car that I like, and I really want to kick all these people out of the car for a few moments. Besides that little girl being cute, what else?
