Nonureva Really Surprised!

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

vchimpanzee Tori is on the phone with her father and they are not getting along. So she is pretty upset already when she gets on the subway. At some point we learn about others who are getting on the subway too, or at least we think we do. Some of these people might not be telling the truth. But here is what we think we know. Adam proposes to Rubina and is giving her a ring, but they are Muslim and a ring is not a part of their tradition. Boyd is an actor. Mason is a veteran of Iraq. Al is an engineering student of Brazilian heritage. Sam is a history teacher who is married to Kathy. Yolanda is a medical professional of some kind who can't speak much English. And Jared and Kristine have a young daughter Dillon.Something terrible happens and people die. At first I thought there was a shooter but it later becomes clear there must have been an explosion. Apparently the train car is on its side and there's no easy way out. There is no one in charge and these ordinary people have to find the solutions to their problems. Some are hurt enough that they might die. Tori calms down and copes quite well. Jared thinks Kristine (who stays remarkably calm considering everything) is worse off than Adam and insists Kristine be helped first. Whatever is wrong with Kristine, something is always blurry. I saw this happen in another movie where someone was so seriously injured she died. The important thing is Kristine is trapped. So is Sam, but he isn't hurt, as long as he can be freed. Kathy is dead and so is a police officer.Eventually, everyone who is able to help can get involved. Yolanda, as the only one who seems to have medical training, does what she can, and Kristine can translate for her, but help is needed from outside and the group needs a way to escape. So there is a lot of work to do, and risks must be taken.And then someone discovers a second bomb. Worse yet, what if one of the group set off the first bomb and is ready to kill more people? What if the terrorist actually intends to commit suicide and does not have a way out? The group must deal with many moral dilemmas. Should they figure out who did the deed and keep that person from killing again? How much should they do to this person? And what if more than one of them might be involved? This movie keeps things exciting and I was on the edge of my seat a lot. The acting performances are good, particularly that of the person playing the terrorist. The excitement of solving the mystery and the urgency of preventing more deaths make this quite entertaining. And of course there are the moral dilemmas. Even young Dillon does something quite surprising.I think it's worth seeing.

bbickley13-921-58664 Yeah, it's one of those movies that kinda exploits 9/11.It starts off pretty cool. I like the opening shot which I feel does a good job of introducing the main characters and telling us what type of people we are dealing with without saying anything. Then again, the characters never really grow out of this intro, making them one dimensional.Then boom, the train comes to a halt pretty devastatingly. That could have been more terrifying if not for the CGI being a little over zealous, but the destruction was kind of cool.Then boom, the signs of a terrorist attack turns whitey into complete bigots automatically pointing to the brown skin kid who of course was not who they assume he was. Seen it done before and done better. At first it seem like this "misunderstanding" was going to be a small part of the movie and it really should have been, but it does not feel like it.There was some pretty good acting by some of the cast, or maybe not good acting, just people who I really like watching on the screen, but not enough to make it a good flick.

Theo Robertson A terrorist bomb explodes on a train on the LA underground . A handful of survivors find themselves trapped in a blocked tunnel . Their worries increase when they realise that another bomb remains unexplodedAnother of these obscure thrillers that you sometimes find online RED LINE is as inoffensive as it is forgettable . To be fair you can see that the producers were under financial pressure hence when the bomb does explode there's a blink and you'll miss it scene of carnage then the picture cuts to the aftermath so saving on set destruction and stunts It does try and be character driven but unfortunately the characters are rather one note . We have the spunky heroine , the ethnic character who suspicion falls upon , the concerned father , the little kid etc but to be fair the cast do make the most of their clichéd parts especially Nicole Gale Anderson RED LINE is disposable fair but for is acceptable 90 minutes entertainment . If you spent tens of millions of dollars with an all star cast you'd still effectively have he same film so credit that it didn't cost a massive fortune

Niaz Islam Arif As a thriller movie this one have adequate pace and twist. This is an average movie which worth watching when you are in light mode. Overall acting is quite descent. I think I like the absence of the over acting. Though the main theme was not very strong and it is somewhat vague that what was the main reason for the bombing. It was also not clear that what the terrorist was doing.Script was not bad but there was the need of some strong dialogues. Towards the climax everything happened very slowly and it was too detail, where speed could do so much better.Bottom line I enjoyed the movie :)
