Best movie of this year hands down!
I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
This is the type of suspense movie that makes the most out of a limited setting, as the vast majority of the film takes places underground on a subway as a terrorist bomb derails a train, and it looks like the saboteur is among the surviving passengers. This is a good combination of suspense, action, and whodunnit as another bomb is discovered and the remaining passengers try to figure out who blew the train up. Basically, this is a harmless time passer if you like this typer of movie-I might recommend it. I liked it. The cast worked well together, and I found myself on the edge of my seat.** 1/2 out of ****
This movie was well played on all accounts! Seeing fellow Princeton native, Kevin Sizemore was a welcome surprise! The suspense with the unknown villain really kept me interested. Suspenseful music would have made it more spine tingling. Use of the little girl to help in the capture of the villain was something new. The typical profile of the middle eastern man that everyone blamed really took the focus off the real villain! Would like to have seen more in the scenery. Yes it was a train crash, but more fire and dangerous conditions would have added to the drama. Also, could have played on the lack of fresh oxygen. Glad to have the opportunity to watch and hope to see more!
At first I thought this was an asylum flick. It has all the earmarks of a low budget B movie. Including: prawn star reject acting skills, extremely low budget film set encompassing all of a 20 square foot room space in the whole of the film, no special effects whatsoever, horrible writing, totally predicable plot line, and more epic bad acting. I cannot provide any spoiler, as there is nothing to spoil - the entire movie itself is a spoiler. How the hell did this film have a 25 million budget? it looks like they spent about $10 renting out an abandoned warehouse,took their costumes from donation bins, and paid for the cheapest prawn star reject level actors they could find. I feel sorry for the investors of this film, their money was clearly stolen. No wonder it only made $8 million in the box office, I would've been (expletive deleted) if i'd paid to watch this. I am still (expletive deleted) however for allowing this half- witted movie to consume precious time spent watching a crappy asylum flick(like snakes on a train), which undoubtedly would have far higher entertainment appeal. In fact I have the distinct feeling an asylum cover of this film (presumably entitled "reddish line"), would be far more entertaining.
If you have watched Open Water 2: Adrift. This is the train version, but funnier. It was classed as a thriller but the most thrilling thing was the little girls name, Dillon. Unintentional comedy was it's best point like the fact that as soon as the train crashed they knew each others names and classic lines like "are you OK" even though a train has just crashed. The death of the person playing the "hero" has me crying in laughter, were he crawled down the side of the train and a rock fell on his head and killed him instantly and no one seemed to care and if they did they didn't show it very well and the lack of background music just made it worse. The woman impaled to the wall had the best part as she just sat down for an hour and half.
