Sorry, this movie sucks

For having a relatively low budget, the film's style and overall art direction are immensely impressive.
Sammy-Jo Cervantes
There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.

Well, this movie totally sucks. The only good part about it is James Marsden, and also he is the only reason I gave this movie a six. It deserved one, to be honest but just for James Marsden's handsome face it got plus five from me. All I'm trying to say is don't watch it. It's just a waste of time but If you have plenty of it and you wanna see a handsome guy, then I'm sure you gonna like it.

All his life, Dan Landsman has never been the cool guy. That's about to change - if he can convince Oliver Lawless, the most popular guy from his high school who's now the face of a national Banana Boat ad campaign, to show up with him to their class reunion. Dan travels from Pittsburgh to LA and spins a web of lies to recruit Lawless. But he gets more than he bargains for as the unpredictable Lawless proceeds to take over his home, career, and entire life. Despite Black and Marsden's trying on making 'The D Train' watchable this comedy is really sinking rather than rising but also most of the comedic parts did not land and to be honest both of this 2 are good actors and deserved better. (5/10)

To say it plain and simple: I enjoyed this movie. I am shocked (not by the movie but) by all the negative comments. I thought that Jack Black was great in it -not that he isn't great in his other movies (Kings of Rock- grrreat!), but I think it is because there was a bigger depth to this character than most of his other movies), D-Train does not reach the greatness of Black's Orange County or Shallow Hal (both superb movies!), but it was a fresh and entertaining look at midlife crises and Highschool reunions. James Marsden stars as Black's equally great counterpart, i really liked him in this maybe morally a bit deviant but likable role - in the end his character is not a mean guy, but actually (and sadly) just pretty lost. Sure, the movie was not the obvious alumni meeting movie/what I expected, but this is a good thing. I was afraid it was gonna turn out as something about long-kept jealousy and some only rooster in the yard clinch, but fortunately it wasn't. It was a delicate, tender story about life choices, desire for friendships, attention and recognition, and coming to terms with your place in life. And done in a very entertaining, funny, original way. I did not see the turns and twists coming, but they did not shock but entertain and enjoy me. Come on, it also features the great Kathryn Hahn and cultish 80ies music - gotta love that! I only felt bad for the nice boss, Bill, but if I understood the ending right, this side story ended well, too. So give it a shot, be prepared for something different and enjoy!

I'm not sure what to make of The D Train. It's disjointed, senseless and convoluted, but underneath the surface is drama with realistic characters making foolish decisions. Dan (Black) wants to be popular among his alumni peers. His idea of hiring hot shot Oliver Lawless (Marsden) will improve the 'class of 94's' reunion headcount. How he does it though, is both intriguing and bewildering. Dan lies his way through the film. The deeper he goes with his dishonesty, the harder The D Train is to watch. What starts as a man on an immoral mission, ends as a complete infatuation with one person's attention and approval. It's an awkward watch. I never felt truly settled knowing Jack Black's character had to come clean sooner or later.
