R.I.P. Tony scoot. The story is about a runaway train full of highly toxic and combustible material is on a collision course with a small town unless an intrepid engineer and conductor can stop it in time. the camera in this film would not stay still and it gets really annoying after a while but the action is enjoyable to watch and the acting is fine.

Even before I watched it, I kinda expected to like Unstoppable just because I like trains but I didn't know I'd enjoy it as much as I did.Unstoppable had me hooked

"Unstoppable" is an action-drama centers on Frank (Denzel Washington) and Will (Chris Pine) as they attempt to first avoid a runaway train and second stop it. I expected much from this, and I wasn't disappointed after watching. It was really an unstoppable hold throughout. Good to see Denzel and Chris Pine doing this film. Very good! Well done. And I like the side stories of their wife issues. BUT actually, I thought it was going to be just train collision of that runaway and the one with the students. VERY GOOD ACTION! :D

I thought this movie was a great thriller. I have to wonder, though, if a lot of it wasn't made-up. Some of the movie was filmed not far from where I live. So, that's pretty cool.

Unstoppable was very well done. It had good action and good pacing. I also appreciate the the lack of tons of cheesy side stories that detract from a fairly simple disaster story. Chris Pine and Denzel Washington have good onscreen chemistry, which really makes this an enjoyable movie. Rosario Dawson is also great as the controller. Worth seeing.

Another solid outing from Tony Scott and Denzel Washington. Though a lot of liberties are taken with the true story this movie is based on, there is still some good old action movie fun to be had here as Washington and Pine play characters chasing down a runaway train. Though the first 30 minutes present your typical cliches, where about every 5 minutes the situation gets worse, once the main story gets going it's an enjoyable ride.
