I love stupid movies. I admit it… and this one looks fantastic. A runaway train that happens to be full of adorable kids AND explosive materials, AND at some point in the movie they LOSE THE TRAIN. How this is possible, I’m not sure, but I can only hope any of the following things happen at some point during the movie:
- The train heads towards a broken bridge/blocked tunnel.
- The train heads towards a broken down vehicle filled with handicapped children/endangered animals/car full of newborns and pregnant women.
- A penny on the tracks sends the train flying through the air.
- It turns out the train is possessed by a supernatural force.
- In the end the only way to stop the train is with love and/or friendship (Nicolas Cage is involved in this plot line somehow).
If even 1% of the things in my brain happen in the movie, it will be worth the $13 I pay at the Arclight to see this opening night.
