Brian T. Whitlock (GOWBTW) Who remembered the movie "Hostel"? Well, "Train" is like ride you will never forget. And other horror films dealing with terror on board a train. American college students in Eastern Europe participate in a very hard match. After they win, the celebrate at an underground club. After blowing off too much steam, they miss the train to Odessa. In luck, they are able to find a train ride to go to Odessa. However, they don't know that it may be their last ride. When the doctor(Koina Ruseva) who invited the coach and team to their train, a surprise awaits them. The doctor subdued the coach. And everyone on the wrestling team are being tortured in different ways. They get maimed, disembodied, and other grizzly things that are in their fates. This is not a train, it's a mobile torture chamber. Thora Birch("Now and Then", "American Beauty", "Ghost World") played Alex, one of the wrestlers. Confidence is crucial when you are dealing with the opponent, you got to know one's weakness and use it as an advantage. Watching "Hostel" is one thing, "Train" is a little more challenging. 2 out of 5 stars.

niccixoxo I would love to get inside the minds of anyone who rated this higher than a 2.Anyone who knows about how movies are made should know that even if a company buys a GOD AWFUL script.... they can always CHANGE it. Stanley Kubrick was known to write scripts as he filmed (The Shinning) so.... there is ABSOLUTELY no reason that this story should be this bad. The director can change the script for free. The producers can sit down and change the script, for free. Hell, even actors have thrown their two cents in and made GREAT changes to movies. You don't have to hire a writer to change a bad story into a good one.It's like, everyone on this film really liked it because, you cannot sit up here and tell me that NO ONE working this film had something bad to say about it.1. Scenes were too dark: I'll be 30 soon and I am FULLY embracing gore. Gimme a little light so I can see. I thought the disgusting dissections could have been good, but I could not see them! 2. Good idea, bad execution: Harvesting organs! Yes. On a train... uh. Torture before hand?? No thanks. Whats the point of that? Sooooo, I guess this movie is pointless.3.Wrestlers, not being able to defend themselves?? Well, if their wrestling match was any sign of their fighting skills, then I guess so. I was not intimidated by anyone on the team... The coach told one of them that he couldn't talk unless he won, and the chick lost too, so that's 1 out of 3 victories... I guess they did suck...4. Let's not try to escape... let's just run around like idiots... OKAY! How the hell did they make it into the woods with NO ONE really looking for them and still, one of them gets killed.5. Why was it gross sometimes, but not at other times? Like when harvesting organs they got blood and guts galore! But when a man takes an ax to the belly there is no blood or anything? Why?? So he could do his own stuns??6. No one, tries to help anyone, basically... How are you gonna kill the dude trying to rape you and then run off and leave the man in the cage when the other rapist sees you?? Why don't you follow your own lead and kill him, after you let the man out of the cage... LOGIC. Dude has his dick out, he's super vulnerable. On top of that, all this rape and implied rape is totally unnecessary, as were the characters who did the raping. They did not make the story better in any way.The list could go on so let me just say: This movie had absolutely NO logic. I finished it because I was WAITING AND WAITING FOR SOMEONE, ANYONE to man up! COME ON! It was like, dumb on top of dumb.There are somethings I expect... tripping while you run away, getting caught and locked up, but this was like crawling when you could easily run and putting on your own handcuffs. When you fall, get up and sprint it out, when you get caught, escape... This movie just surrendered.

TheBlueHairedLawyer A group of wrestlers are boarding a mysterious train with their coach, only to find themselves dragged away in the night to have their internal organs harvested while they are still alive. Aside from being morbid and gross, this film didn't have much in it. About halfway through it I fell asleep. Watching pervy teenagers who dare each other to run around on a train naked for fun isn't exactly exciting. There was a lot of disgusting rape stuff that was unnecessary and degrading. The organ harvesting plot was apparently based on truth, but it was highly exaggerated and obviously not based on much of anything other than trying to creep people out for a quick buck or two. Unless you're a gore fan and have seen 'em all, I wouldn't watch this.

mftuchman This film was not at all what I expected. There seemed little motivation for this movie except to reinforce the stereotype that anything in Eastern Europe is dangerous. What I want to know is this - why is it in this and many other movies do Americans hand over their passports to untrustworthy strangers? After this, the hapless tourists wind up in one improbable blunder after another while committing every cliché horror movie mistake along the way.The acting is acceptable, and one had enough sympathy for the main character, played by Thora Birch, to see it through to the end, although the movie never satisfactorily explains how a young, vulnerable woman without ID can nonetheless get her credentials and passport back. While we do not expect horror movies to be realistic in every detail, we do expect not to have gaping holes in logic (unless explained within the movie itself).
