People are voting emotionally.

Boring, long, and too preachy.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

The acting in this movie is really good.

Who remembered the movie "Hostel"? Well, "Train" is like ride you will never forget. And other horror films dealing with terror on board a train. American college students in Eastern Europe participate in a very hard match. After they win, the celebrate at an underground club. After blowing off too much steam, they miss the train to Odessa. In luck, they are able to find a train ride to go to Odessa. However, they don't know that it may be their last ride. When the doctor(Koina Ruseva) who invited the coach and team to their train, a surprise awaits them. The doctor subdued the coach. And everyone on the wrestling team are being tortured in different ways. They get maimed, disembodied, and other grizzly things that are in their fates. This is not a train, it's a mobile torture chamber. Thora Birch("Now and Then", "American Beauty", "Ghost World") played Alex, one of the wrestlers. Confidence is crucial when you are dealing with the opponent, you got to know one's weakness and use it as an advantage. Watching "Hostel" is one thing, "Train" is a little more challenging. 2 out of 5 stars.

I would love to get inside the minds of anyone who rated this higher than a 2.Anyone who knows about how movies are made should know that even if a company buys a GOD AWFUL script.... they can always CHANGE it. Stanley Kubrick was known to write scripts as he filmed (The Shinning) so.... there is ABSOLUTELY no reason that this story should be this bad. The director can change the script for free. The producers can sit down and change the script, for free. Hell, even actors have thrown their two cents in and made GREAT changes to movies. You don't have to hire a writer to change a bad story into a good one.It's like, everyone on this film really liked it because, you cannot sit up here and tell me that NO ONE working this film had something bad to say about it.1. Scenes were too dark: I'll be 30 soon and I am FULLY embracing gore. Gimme a little light so I can see. I thought the disgusting dissections could have been good, but I could not see them! 2. Good idea, bad execution: Harvesting organs! Yes. On a train... uh. Torture before hand?? No thanks. Whats the point of that? Sooooo, I guess this movie is pointless.3.Wrestlers, not being able to defend themselves?? Well, if their wrestling match was any sign of their fighting skills, then I guess so. I was not intimidated by anyone on the team... The coach told one of them that he couldn't talk unless he won, and the chick lost too, so that's 1 out of 3 victories... I guess they did suck...4. Let's not try to escape... let's just run around like idiots... OKAY! How the hell did they make it into the woods with NO ONE really looking for them and still, one of them gets killed.5. Why was it gross sometimes, but not at other times? Like when harvesting organs they got blood and guts galore! But when a man takes an ax to the belly there is no blood or anything? Why?? So he could do his own stuns??6. No one, tries to help anyone, basically... How are you gonna kill the dude trying to rape you and then run off and leave the man in the cage when the other rapist sees you?? Why don't you follow your own lead and kill him, after you let the man out of the cage... LOGIC. Dude has his dick out, he's super vulnerable. On top of that, all this rape and implied rape is totally unnecessary, as were the characters who did the raping. They did not make the story better in any way.The list could go on so let me just say: This movie had absolutely NO logic. I finished it because I was WAITING AND WAITING FOR SOMEONE, ANYONE to man up! COME ON! It was like, dumb on top of dumb.There are somethings I expect... tripping while you run away, getting caught and locked up, but this was like crawling when you could easily run and putting on your own handcuffs. When you fall, get up and sprint it out, when you get caught, escape... This movie just surrendered.

Americans go on a train in Europe that ends up being their last ride. That's this film summed up in one sentence, one boring sentence that actually is more entertaining than the film. This is Hostel meets Turistas on a train. How many times have we seen good-looking Americans (ugly ones never travel) that somehow get caught up in some sick plot about killing for for money, organ harvesting, teaching lessons, etc. These films seem like ANTI-TRAVEL ads, if you leave the states, you're going to die.The film doesn't bother with a plot, it simply needs to get characters for the slaughter in specific locations so bad guys can do harmful things to them. Films like these are basically an excuse to showcase gore, just like a film such as 2012 is made to showcase special effects. So how do you judge a film that is simply about cutting people up? You judge it on how well they accomplish that, how creative it can be and if it made you squirm. Does Train do any of these things? Well, characters are beaten, urinated on, cut open, stabbed, castrated, etc. So there is no real creativity going on here. People are simply chained up and then cut open for the most part. Train manages to fall into the horror clichés that have plagued the genre like a sickness. Let's take a look:1. Characters have a chance to escape, but don't? Check. 2. Characters have a weapon, drop it and leave it instead of using it? Check. 3. Characters give away passports/I.D. to strangers in other country just because? Check. 4. Characters go back to save someone who cannot be saved? Check. 5. Characters have opportunity to kill attacker, but instead choose to simply injure then run away? CHECK.This film had me rolling my eyes so much I hurt my eyeballs. Train is a flick you can miss, it adds nothing to the genre in terms of suspense, thrills, gore, entertainment, anything. It will anger you, frustrate you, cause you to rip your hair out. All these things and more!!!!

I am a big fan of horror movies. Especially non-slasher disturbing shock cinema films. I love gory disturbing films with explicit violence if it has purpose and sense to the story. But this one doesn't. Sure, violence is there, and it has some great moments of massacre, but other that that, it still feels somehow censored (not showing penises several times throughout the film, for instance).Also, I'm the first person who sympathizes with heroes more than with villains in most horror films. Usually, I hope many survive, especially my favorite characters. However, in this one I didn't have any favorite characters. Somehow, all the 'good' characters are flat and pointless. Two of the characters are irredeemably stupid, two are decent, but killed to early. One had potential, but did nothing worthwhile. Thora Birch's character was the only one making sense, until... she returned on train!!! Really?? Not only Hollywood-esque, but also stupid and irrational decision. Her fight with the villains was rushed too.The villains were cool, though. Bit cliché, but the boss had unique face and was very attractive, conductor was cool too and the butcher had potential. I enjoyed inbred retards as well.Oh, yeah, just to mention (to whoever wants to spoil the end), no surprises whatsoever. Thora survives, all villains and all other good characters die. Just generic and predictable.However, OK horror flick for seeing if you are searching for blood and guts. But there are better films for that too, Hostel, Saw franchise and Hills Have Eyes being some of them.But, I'm being generous, since I gladly give 9s and 10s to movies I really love. This one isn't that awful, but if you expect Hostel, just don't. You'd be very disappointed.
