Night Train

Night Train


Here is what I call a good film. I was pleasantly surprised by this one. Think Orient Express meets Stephen King. Very well written work of art. Staring; Danny Glover, Lee Sobieski, and Steve Zahn.

In this film we find three strangers caught in an interesting story of greed. It begs to question what you would do for something that could change your life forever, and who would you eliminate in order to get it.

This plot could have been written by Stephen King himself, it was so well thought out. I honestly did not know what would happen next, even though I am usually the person watching a film that can say what will happen next. This time I could not.

The Actors were superb, and gave the extra elements for you to care, and root on each character. It was quite interesting to see how you these people stuck in a train car with limited means would begin acting of the same accord. All would later show a darker side of their nature when greed comes into play, and shows us all what we truly are on the inside.

The only SLIGHT downfall of this feature is the CG. Now, the truth is you don’t care about the special effects. The truth is where it counted there was no need for special effects, and they did not resort to it. I was very pleased by this film, and I recommend it with two very high thumbs up.
I give this film 5 out of 5.
