10/10
One step after another, it's a surprise
20 June 2008
Warning: Spoilers
First of all, avoid seeing the trailer first. It gives away two instances which should be experienced.

This was another film I picked up for the femme fatale replacement of daytime TV. It's that, but it is more than that. It's more than 'Bullet to Beijing', 'Cassandra Crossing', 'Murder on the Orient Express'. or 'Silver Streak' or other movies of trains.

It's about people who aren't what they seem to be, that those who seem to fall into classic parts, aren't. In the end, those who are in the classic parts deserve all the emotion, good or bad, that is directed to them. It's humorous at times and heart wrenching at others.

The photography is wonderful, top of the mark, like National Geographic.

It's only potential downfall is that for English, there are only subtitles. This however, may not be a flaw because subtitles require that one pays attention and one should pay attention in this movie.
