Runs Out of Steam Immediately
4 May 2013
Plodding and virtually plot less this mundane Movie is a static presentation that tries very little to be exciting. It's a lethargic little Film exploiting the bomb in Britain anxiety that the People there surely didn't need any reminder to bring back those nightmares of just a few years back.

It is not bad, just runs out of steam almost immediately. Once the bomb "expert" climbs aboard the Train things really screech to a halt. The Wifely back story seems oddly coupled here and is about as dull as their Marriage. The most interesting thing is the Saboteur and the hunt for Him and his motivation are non-existent.

There is a bit of Comedy relief featuring a codger, "I like Trains". That line is repeated ad nauseum and is somewhat condescending. It doesn't liven things up. Overall, this is not a complete failure and has some rather good Cinematography. The locations are damp and dismal and that describes this completely.
