I started to watch this film because I had heard about Unstoppable which is a film by Tony Scott which is set on a train that is moving. This is another train film by Tony Scott that doesn’t move. The film sees Denzel Washington as a disgraced train operator who is forced into having a conversation with John Travolta.
Despite this being a rather flimsy plot it is actually a lot of fun and this is down to Travolta and Washington who have some good scenes together. I did find it funny the way that Travolta kept saying Mother f***er. Made me smile every time that he said it. The film would probably have been better had it not had Travolta or Washington in it. There was one moment when Washington’s character talks to his wife about buying milk of all things. Quite a strange moment when its at the business end of things.
This film is rather good despite the things wrong with it and it shows how far Travolta has come since Battlefield Earth.
