'Unstoppable' action/drama movie was recently released into theaters by 20th Century Fox two months ago. I finally got to watch it,and must say that it was a very,very good movie.
I liked this entire movie from beginning to end. It delivered a lot of "edge of your seat" scenes,along with high drama and action. The flick stars: Denzel Washington, Chris Pine, Rosario Dawson,and Kevin Chapman.
"Unstoppable" is based on actual events and centered around veteran train engineer Frank (Washington) and a young conductor named Will (Pine). They start off with a bumpy relationship as Frank is a bit upset that they're giving all the good jobs to the new younger guys. Eventually, they manage to get along well enough to get the train moving on its course.
Dewey who is an irresponsible train driver decides to hop off the train he's in while it's still moving so he can pull a switch. The train gets away from him while the air breaks are detached and the controls are set to full throttle. Railroad controller Connie is quickly made aware of the problem,and makes phone calls to set some stops in place.
The unmanned,moving train gets to the point where it picks up too much speed for the stops to work. Corporate ignores Connie's advice to try and derail the train before it makes its way to crowded towns. They try to slow it down from the front,but that fails to work,and the train starts heading for a fatal destination.
Frank and Will decide to go after the train by attaching and stopping it from the back with a single car train. After an intense effort to attach themselves to the train,they realize that it has too much power for them to stop it,and that's when the real fun,action begins.
The two of them climbed over train cars,pulled the breaks on every car individually,and finally got to the front of the train to stop it. And they were,of course, being covered by lots of TV news stations. I really dug this movie. It was highly entertaining.
The film was quite simple and to the point. The dangerous train,full of explosives, was on the loose,and they needed to stop it. They were able to do it with "edge of your seat" action with a great storyline that left me saying, "Whoa, that was cool." I gave this movie an A+ grade for sure.
