Fox released their new drama,action movie titled "Unstoppable" into theaters about 2 months ago. I just checked it out,and must say that it was an absolutely great movie.
I enjoyed every moment of this fast chase,thrilling movie until the very end. It featured tons of "edge of your seat" excitement,along with intense drama and action. It stars: Denzel Washington, Chris Pine, Rosario Dawson,and Kevin Chapman.
The movie is based on true events and revolved around character Frank who's a veteran train engineer and a young conductor named Will . The two of them start off on a bumpy path, relationship wise, because Frank is a little upset that they're giving good jobs to the new younger guys with less actual experience. However, they manage to get along good enough to get the train moving on 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 train eventually picks up too much speed for any stop to work. Corporate ignores the advice from Connie to derail the train before it gets to the crowded town areas. They send in people to try and slow it down from the front,but that fails horribly,and the train continues to head for a major disaster.
Frank and Will make a heroic decision to go after the train in an effort to attach and stop it from the back with a single,car train. After a high intense chase to attach the car to the train,they find out that it has to much power for them to stop it,and that's when the real 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.
It was very simple and to the point. A dangerous unmanned train was on the loose, they needed to stop it. They did it in a very high intense,dramatic fashion that left me saying, "Wow, that was awesome." I gave this movie a definite A+.
