I bambini del treno

Where to start :

Good points : none

Pointless sequel, yet another example of the talentless chimps beating on keyboards to produce an awful script for a shameless money making grab on the back of a classic

I hope they paid Jenny Agutter a lot of money for her short appearances.

Absolute rubbish, full of 'woke' B. S.

If you have fond memories of the classic original don't waste your money.

It was a good idea to update the railway children story of the Second World War but an absolutely dumb idea to put modern ideas of racism - presumably to please the woke crowd - into it. Come on this is a children's film. We know that racism existed in the American army but the enemy was not the Americans but the Nazis. Even the murderous Joe Stalin was on our side! The idiots who rewrite history like this give our children the wrong idea, that somehow the brave lads who went to war against one of the most murderous regimes ever were the bad guys. These things are just totally annoying and totally out of place in children's films. Another example of woke virtue signalling. The movie could've been made a lot more entertaining with a lot better and more imaginative screenplay. Hopeless!

This whole film is a quite weak. The story is really unbelievable, the acting isn't great and it all gets ludicrous.

It's hard to know who this film is aimed at, who will see it and even why it was made.

Who is the audience supposed to be? I thought this would be a family movie, and expected a weak version of the original, but the writers have ruined a wonderful original tale and filled the film with unpleasant characters, racism, bigotry and bad mannered children.

Yes, the issues of racism do need to be told and historically remembered, but this is not the film for it. The Railways Children was a lovely, charming and heartfelt story of a family in crisis and how loving children helped their mother and each other. This is not the platform for a socially conscience lesson.

Write a new movie if you want that; don't leach off a gentle story.

Trading on the goodwill generated by the original,this quickly dispels any such feeling. A plot which has little of the warmth and charm of the original. It then tries to copy the climax of the original. The music is overbearing.

Interesting to see Tom Courtney,other than that a total non event.
