When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Yeah, I've hunted these "one filming location/only few actors" kind of movies lately and this ABSOLUTELY fits in nicely in this category.I actually doesn't care about plots in this kind of movies, but I must say that, there still COULD be something else in the movie. Maybe something more at the beginning and in the end. Little subplot would be nice. And to be honest, I don't like the idea of driver and his thoughts being unrevealed.I think those are the reason why this got 7/10 from me. The rest of the film was fantastic! The nice and calm atmosphere before the panic starts fade in and you really start to get thrilled. Even though this is quite "boring" movie. The atmosphere build up nicely and doesn't actually fall flat at any point, which is understandable of course.I liked it. No plots or anything behind this but still movie is nicely executed. I recommend if you're liking real thrillers (and solid plot is not relevant).

I am an American in the Philippines and this movie was being shown on one of their channels. I had never heard of it, so I gave it a chance. After watching a few minutes, I felt sorry for the people in America that wasted about $9,300 on this piece of garbage. I am literally shocked that something like this would be released in the year 2013. It was extremely obvious why ticket sales in the US were less than $10,000.High School kids could produce a better quality film. The characters are 5 minutes from possibly dying and they sit around and have a beer and tell stories on a train that is speeding at 100 mph???? Are you kidding me?Cliché after Cliché after Cliché ! The beautiful girl. The widowed doctor. The young child that is trying to replace his dead mother. Come On !This movie was HORRIBLE.Then, they had to throw in the Engineer really wanted to be a Magician but he couldn't tell his father. Clichés were embedded in Clichés.This movie sucked so bad, I started laughing at the end. I laughed so hard, that I had to come here and write this review... That way, I could Laugh some more. Ha. Ha. Ha.

I have just watched this movie and although it's never going to be a classic I considered it a perfectly good watch for its 1hr 36 minutes. The premise of the movie is not original nor is the progression right through to the end but as a complete movie it delivers most respectfully. Naturally you will get the anorak geeks on here slating the movie for technical inaccuracies but if I wanted to know the exact workings of a train I'd not have any friends and sit on a train platform with a Thermos of tea and a note pad like these 'Billy-No-Mates' do. For normal people I want to just be immersed in a film for 1.5 hours. I thought the acting was OK and contrary to one reviewer from Bermuda, Dougray Scott's voice is clear and not a mumble, nor is is it a strange accent. Typical of someone not from the UK thinking all Scots should sound like either Billy Connolly or Mrs Doubtfire! Yes I sound like Dick Van Dyke from Mary Poppins because I come from London! All in all a good film to pass an afternoon with.

Lately I haven't been able to concentrate on most movies. I finally decided that I had seen so many films that my Netflix list had moved into second and third tier films. While "Last Passenger" isn't the be-all and end-all of action/adventure films, it was certainly entertaining and exciting.Most of these types of films, including high-end James Bond movies, have pretty preposterous plots and action sequences. It's been pointed out that this film is very inaccurate as far as the mechanics of trains, the train stops on this particular line, and today's fail-safe mechanisms. The average person doesn't know that.This is a wild film, highly improbable, and thrilling, with attractive stars Dougray Scott and Kara Toinin. The ruggedly-handsome Scott does a job as a loving father determined to protect his son, and Kara Toinin is both gorgeous and sympathetic. The two have great chemistry. Lindsay Duncan, whom I saw in person in Private Lives, is a marvelous actress. Though she has a small part here, she's wonderful and classy. I enjoyed all the acting, even if the little boy here is no Leonardo di Caprio in the making.I get a little tired of people criticizing films as if, for instance, a movie like this is supposed to be Citizen Kane when it isn't. I don't understand taking a film apart frame by frame and criticizing it, unless, of course, it's a boring, horrid, pretentious film. However, no one seems to do that with boring, horrid, pretentious films. When I look at IMDb reviews, those are the films that are hailed as "classics" that "demand multiple viewings." Well, David Lynch movies might demand multiple viewings, but others don't -- by me, anyway, since often I can't through five minutes of them. Sometimes it's enough that a film is fast moving, entertaining. where one cares about the characters.So there, I liked it. Chacun à son goût.
