Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
All in all, the film is an excellent, if modest, alternative for moviegoers who have been blockbustered into submission this summer.
A thriller aboard the Trans-Siberian line, stretching roughly 5,000 miles from Beijing to Moscow, should be a cinch, right? Not so fast, Casey Jones.
Director Brad Anderson throws in a red herring or two as he comments on Eurotrash and the greed-fueled lawlessness of the former Soviet Union, but he ultimately makes an even stronger statement about the dark side of female empowerment.
As Alfred Hitchcock demonstrated three times, trains make a nifty setting for a thriller.
