It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Unstoppable is a typical Tony Scott (RIP) film in that it provides what it promises- an hour and a half od solid entertainment. This one concerns a railroad engineer and a young conductor who must race against the clock to prevent an unmanned freight train from crashing into a city. Its fast paced and more importantly- well-paced. The effects are good and the train lashing towards its destination like a bullet does provide some sort of excitement. The actors are good- Denzel is always reliable and Chris Pine ably supports him. This is a good film that you can watch and forget and that is what its intentions are

Movie Review: "Unstoppable" (2010)Director Tony Scott's final stroke of cinamatic paint after making defining steps in the decade of the 2000s with "Man of Fire" (2004) also starring Denzel Washington, who here shares screen-time with up and present Chris Pine, already known for portraying "Young James T. Kirk" in J.J. Abrams' re-interpretation of "Star Trek" (2009); together the kind of black-white buddy team come to terms in fair and running actiion-thriller for the whole family in thanksgiving season of 2010, when 20th Century Fox distributes "Unstoppable" as real-life event biopic based on a newspaper article concerning an unmanned freight train running through Pennsylvania, here mimicked with a stunning location shot in Columbus, Ohio as cinematography by Bob Seresin benefits Tony Scott's directorial visión of high concept in finding an happy ending in chaos as he also says farewell to filmmaking with a tracking helicopter shot on the leading triangle of friends, when actress Rosario Dawson joins Chris Pine and Denzel Washington at the rails of minor suspenseful, but nevertheless 90-Minute thrilling editorial of a Hollywood allround entertainer of a motion picture.

While nobody thinks that a movie only covering a few hours out of a day would not be that great, this was really cool. While this movie was based on true events, it really stretched it out a lot more than the true story was. If you like hardcore action, intense suspense, and close calls, this is the movie you've been waiting for. It was really cool.

I assume that there had to be someone connected with railroads involved in this film, since someone at least had to run the engines. But you'd never know it. Nothing they said or did bore any relation to the reality of railroading. But I'll be fair, since I am an ex-railroad employee and someone who has loved and studied railroading all my life. So let's keep the mistakes to what the average Joe should question. Denzel Washington is supposedly a 20 plus year employee of the railroad. But he has to ask how far Stanton is?? When he would have run this route hundreds of times? Why would they have to drop a man from a helicopter when if he had been on Washington's engine he could have just stepped across when they coupled to it? I know a lot of this was to add drama and action, but at least keep it close to being believable. It might be different if this was a sci-fi fantasy but this was supposed to imitate real life. Embarrassed for Denzel taking part in this.
