‘Snowpiercer’ Season 2 review: Sean Bean’s marvellous villainy saves the show
The Hindu
The second season has thrills and violence aplenty, and a villain so mundane, so believable and so charismatic that it is difficult to take your eyes off him
Most of the flat writing and low stakes in the first season of Snowpiercer, have been righted in the thrilling second season. A lot of the credit for that goes to Sean Bean’s marvellously villainous Mr Wilford. The eccentric inventor saved the last remnants of humanity (the jury is out on that) after a climate experiment turned the world into a frozen wasteland. . Wilford made Snowpiercer, a self-sufficient ark train 1001 cars long, that constantly circumnavigates the globe. His chief engineer, Melanie (Jennifer Connelly) hijacked the train from Wilford. At the end of season one, the revolution is a success and Melanie hands over charge to Andre Layton (Daveed Diggs).More Related News
