Unstoppable is a film I can describe to you in a single sentence and be assured you understand everything you need to know about it. Here goes: There’s a runaway train and Denzel Washington has to stop it. Still, I really enjoyed this one.
Why?
- I like trains.
- The industrial landscape shots were excellent.
- I don’t know much about actors, but Denzel Washington is one I recognize and I’ve seen him in some enjoyable films.
- The suspense was nail-biting, even though we all know that Stanton didn’t ever explode.
On the anchovy 5-fish rating scale, I give this one 3 tasty salties.
It’s predictable, and by-the-numbers, but for the time it goes on, its fun, but it should have hit harder. Nice post, check out my review when you can!
