Night Train

Now, the movie "Night Train" is listed as an action thriller. I have to say that I found it to be neither of those two things. The movie was, for a lack of better words, just downright boring.

The storyline in "Night Train", as written by CJ Walley, was a complete and utter swing and a miss in terms of entertaining me. The narrative in the movie was so insanely slow paced that you could leave the movie running whilst you had to do house chores, then come back and still be up to speed. And the fact that the character gallery had about as much appeal as a carton of spoiled milk, just didn't exactly help to sell the movie.

The acting performances in "Night Train" were stale. Nothing to get the movie up in speed here either. Of the entire cast, then I was only familiar with Abraham Benrubi and Reggie Austin.

If you enjoy a good action thriller, just like I do, then do yourself a favor and don't waste 95 minutes on watching "Night Train". Nay, you just might want to skip out on punching the ticket for this particular train and just let it roll past the train station in the snail pace tempo that it was going forward in.

My rating of "Night Train", from director Shane Stanley, lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

It's showing individuals lives, with out the guns and blood or a spray of blood exiting a head wound on the green screen. I think it fresh and I like how it shows individual character. I'm just 16.51 in. I will review more in the second act. I'm liking the 2 leed charters. She took the money from the boss. She didn't recognize, The Set Up.im still liking the figuring out the personalities. And the investigator is a alcoholic. And suffering from PTSD. One is volatile, and the other cautious. Family values between daughter and father. And then the confrontation. The conversation and, The Challenge!

Simply horrific in every aspect. Bad acting, zero action, horrible dialogue.

Reviewer skiplewis-49403 sums it up best.

"Cringe worthy and unwatchable. I couldn't even finish watching this junk to see the ending. Just really bad acting and a terrible script. There wasn't one part of this movie I found enjoyable. I had low expectations going into it and the movie was even worse than I expected I could barely pay attention and almost fell asleep. Terrible cast and laughable action scenes. Plot is not believable whatsoever. Seems to be the norm for most movies released nowadays . The fact that this was even released is comical. It's a real shame how bad movies have become. I would definitely not recommend watching this movie to anyone . Nails on a chalkboard bad."

To be honest I only gave this movie a chance because I taught the main actress (Danielle C. Ryan) was gorgeous, and I was right. The movie starts with a story all over the place and you have no idea who is who, but after a slow and in my opinion, a bad start, they picked up a pace and I'm glad I didn't quit after 30 minutes. Two leading actresses gave very solid performances, also some of the supporting cast also did a reasonable job, which was a bit of a surprise because of the terrible rating this movie has. There are also some very well written dialogues between characters, also another surprise that a B rated movie gets emotional and deeply thought on few occasions. If you expect something spectacular and blockbuster action and effects, well this is not for you, if you lower your expectations and have some free time to spend Night Train isn't that terrible.

I had a hard time following at first. The two protagonists are both women with long blonde hair and the same build. It took me half an hour to figure out there were two different women in the movie. These are not actors I was familiar with. The storyline was okay, but there wasn't as much action as there could have been. It also seems like they could have developed the characters a little bit more. It was hard to root for someone doing something illegal, but I also didn't find the agent terribly likable or easy to sympathize with. The plot was okay, but the execution was lacking. I think the movie was missing some depth.
