Horror Express
The Transsiberian Express is the setting for Eugenio Martin’s monster-fossil rampage in Horror Express. It has got a ridiculous Hammer-esque plot and some vapid pseudo-science. But what makes it entertaining is the haunting and inescapable premise of the train and the marvelous casting. English stars Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing are enthralling to watch even though their characters are quite uni-dimensional. They can sell you the most mindless plot developments in a convincing manner. Th...
Silver Streak
Arthur Hiller’sSilver Streakwas a crowd-pleasing entertainer in its days, though its nonsensical suspense story and uneven writing (Colin Higgins) haven’t aged well. Gifted comedian Gene Wilder plays the protagonist George Caldwell, a non-fiction publisher bound for Chicago in the titular express train. He enjoys a bit of romance on the train with the attractive Hilly Burns (Jill Clayburgh), who works as a secretary to the art historian, Professor Schreiner. When George unwittingly becomes a...
Brad Anderson’s Hithcockian thriller Transsiberian unfolds in the backdrop of a railroad trip across snow-filled Russian provinces. The narrative follows American couples Roy (Woody Harrelson) and Jesse (Emily Mortimer), who are trying to fix their marital strife by embarking on an adventurous 8-day train journey from Beijing to Moscow. As the titl...
Based on Isako Kotaro’s 2010 novel Maria Beetle, David Leitch’s Bullet Trainis a delightful action thriller and black comedy set on a high-speed train traveling from Tokyo to Kyoto. Aboard the train are distinctly characterized assassins on different missions, albeit it somehow feels connected. The convoluted yet fun narrative often teases us about...
Tony Scott’sUnstoppable is an enjoyable popcorn flick, unlike the same filmmaker’s remake of Taking of Pelham One Two Three. It features a big and loud thrill train ride, further bolstered by the ever-charismatic presence of Denzel Washington. Washington plays veteran train engineer Frank Barnes, who is paired with a new and young conductor, Will C...
The anthology film Tickets brings together three renowned filmmakers – Ermanno Olmi (Italy), Abbas Kiarostami (Iran), and Ken Loach(UK) – to tell three tales set in a trans-European train. Olmi’s first segment follows an old pharmacologist (Carlo Delle Piane) seated in his first-class dining car. His mind wanders during the journey, but he eventual...
Though not an excellent prisoner-of-war escape drama like Stalag 17 (1953) and The Great Escape (1963), Mark Robson’s Von Ryan’s Express is a tautly plotted action adventure, where a Naziprison transport train aids the war prisoners’ daring escape. Loosely based on David Westheimer’s novel, the first 40 minutes of the nearly two-hour film establish...
Roberto Benigni’s Life is Beautiful (1997) mixed certain comedic elements into the solemn backdrop of concentration camps, which garnered its fair share of critique. There’s also the Holocaust drama Jakob the Liar (1999), whose simplistic reaffirmation of humanity was critically panned. Radu Mihaileanu’s Train of Lifealso skirts around the theme of...
Wes Anderson has often cited Satyajit Ray as a massive influence on his works. His fifth feature film, The Darjeeling Limited, is conceived as a tribute to the legendary Bengali filmmaker and utilizes a prevalent trope in the master’s cinema: train travel. The first half of Anderson’s film is set aboard a train, where three estranged brothers – pla...
Captain Colter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) wakes up in a Chicago-bound express with no idea of how he got there. His fellow passenger and acquaintance, Christina (Michelle Monaghan), calls him Sean, a history teacher. Stevens doesn’t recognize the man staring back at him in the mirror. But there isn’t much time to worry about his identity since the t...
Touted as the only movie adaptation of Agathe Christie’s work, which the author herself was completely satisfied with, the 1974 locked-room mystery has a marvelous ensemble cast and a tour de force performance from Albert Finney as Christie’s eccentric Belgian super-sleuth, Hercule Poirot. Its plot might be well-known to murder-mysteryenthusiasts (...
