StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
roy-50-193217 I was short of something to do this afternoon and saw this on the listings - big mistake! Wooden acting and sets that defy description are just part of the problem. For example the train carriages must be 20 feet wide - the corridors are about 6 feet and the compartments even more. If you've ever been on a real train with compartments (sleeping or otherwise) you'll know just how cramped they are.As for the acting, well I try not to use foul language, but in this case it's the only way to describe it - so I'll just leave it at that.In all I'd recommend that anyone thinking of watching it doesn't bother - unless you have no taste at all!
elshikh4 1 – If that alleged terrorist of the movie invited the most rich people on earth to plunder their money through 10 % of everyone's fortune then why by any chance he invited a trivial movie star who gains just 20 million dollars every year ?!! Why to bring one man who could get something near 200 thousands dollars in the same time that you already have others whom could get 200 million ? Extremely idiot.. and I don't mean the terrorist ! 2 – This very invitation was top secret. Fine. So how about all the people whom saw the guests at the railway station before they get into the train at that long one shoot scene where for instance some fans wanted the autograph of the young singer, and the girls were just pathetically crazy about (Richard Grieco) ??!! 3 – I can't believe that the stars of Hollywood's Action movies are an action heroes in real life. In fact all the action stars whom that graceful and bold to the extent that they don't need any stunts were not Americans all along (Jean-Paul Belmondo) for example, and (Jackie Chan) for another. Moreover having Mr. (Richard Grieco) as the great courageous adventurous was something not only unbelievable but also provocative !4 – When (Grieco) and the Russian girl were above the train holding the bomb and not knowing at all what could stop it, (Grieco) said "Let us try" !!, and he was aware that if he was wrong they would go BOOOM ! But he said "Let us try", so he must be very much brave or very much stupid ?5 – Despite that I didn't understand what is the dramatic benefit of (Grieco) killing the Russian big guy, I think that the Russian ballerina was too fat to be one in the first place ! Not to mention how she was capable of climbing the train more than once ! Or why she climbs ? Maybe anybody meets (Grieco) becomes in need of being a hero OR killing himself anyway !6 – How the mobile phone mogul could stop all the bombs by the phones ?! 7 – The repeating of the shoots' angles, with the poorness of the set made a visually boring rhythm, plus the pleasure of watching (Grieco)'s thin eyebrows for all the time also.. That demands more than human patience to stand it !8 – The message of the movie or even its obvious point of view : all the eastern half of the world is dead set on being nothing but lustful (the wealthy young man from the southeast of Asia), disloyal (his twin brother), bestial rapist (the Russian guy), or terrorist hates the west (The Turkish kidnapper), and most of them got killed at the end simply because they're too dumb or too selfish to survive. On the other hand all the western characters seemed smarter, braver, and despite their own weakness and defects they can unite heroically. This kind of formula that the movie presents didn't make my day to say the least !9 – The goofs of this movie were maybe more than Grieco's haters all over the world (No.. It can't exceed 500 million !) I mean so many : the train is so slow while (Grieco) under it to terminate the bombs, the air bag that one of the stunts jumps over it (as one bad guy falls from the train) was so clear and its color was white !, at the last facing where (Grieco) was threatening the poor terrorist, (Grieco)'s face was all covered by his long hair ??! Actually he could have ended the terrorist plainly if he let him watch one of his movies but he was that merciful !10 – The long title; which is the worst to a degree would make this movie historically known as bad one in a funny way !I liked the music it was better than the movie in some parts, I liked the plot it was new as a train situation's movie, but the whole movie was something that can't be beloved as it seemed sometimes like a good atmosphere for a porn film with actors were looking like the ones whom used to be in similar productions. Sorry but with the zero budget and the zero talents I felt powerfully like that.Although it was like a terrorist crime in itself but there is a good lesson that you would learn from it : Don't watch movies by (Richard Grieco) again !
Mikew3001 Okay, all-time b-movie action hero Richard Grieco (remember Booker and 20 Jump Street?) meets up with some rich European and American people on a luxury train for a New Year's Eve trip across Europe, and of course a bunch of Islamic terrorists takes the train and blackmails the poor Western citizens... and of course it's Grieco's and some well-looking model's turn to find some bombs on the train and fight the foreign terrorist power...It's sometimes impressing how the casting people decide for a film's actors. This time, German non-actor Christoph Waltz, notorious for his never-moving face expressions, plays an Islamic terrorist leader. Grieco rather looks like an early nineties' Seattle grunge guitarist and is really misplaced on a high-society luxury train, and the rest of the actors... well, after the film is over, you're lucky that you have survived the big express to boredom. Nor a highlight amongst the terrorists on a train movies, neither an entertaining action flick really... skip it!
Peter Fairburn With a small budget, Mr. Roper populates a railroad station with a large cast of extras who do very little but give a false sense of grandeur. We are introduced to a cast of characters who could, under certain circumstances, be interesting. There is a McGuffen that holds promise for fascinating interaction and believable action. None of these things occur.The mismatched cast bumbles through dialogue unfit for human consumption. The continuity is so bad that sections of the transparent plot simply seem to disappear. But it all grinds on in weary tedium until someone, I forget just who, blows up something and everyone kisses and makes up somewhere in Bulgaria or another.In the fifties, this thing would go directly to a drive-in to be shown late at night to clear out the loiterers. Today, it has no place in the company of art and artists. Please, God, let there not be a sequel.
