"[2nd Season Review]: It remains entertaining and unique as its character narratives become deeper and more layered. It’s not the same show it was in the first season, and that’s really a good thing."  POS

"[2nd Season Review]: Despite this competent ensemble (...) it’s not entirely clear how 'Snowpiercer' will maintain our interest without a descent into family soap (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"  NEU

"The result is watchable, but not much more (...) It’s revealing how little, and rarely, “Snowpiercer” really feels set on a train. One never senses the jostling movement of wheels over tracks:"  NEU

"For about four episodes, 'Snowpiercer' veers way too close to becoming a TNT police procedural (...) As a season of escapist adventure, you could do far worse"  NEU
