Underwhelming in every sense and distractingly scattershot, this bogus romantic thriller aspires for the cinematic greatness and complexity of "Gone Girl," but ends up looking more like an episode of "The Young and the Restless."

The film is worth watching simply for Emily Blunt's performance as an alcoholic woman still obsessed with her ex-husband and also a couple she watches from the train she takes to and from New York every day. The film is pretty dark, with a lot of back-and-forth between present day and the past. A strong cast really makes this worth watch, even if the story wasn't quite as good as I was expecting.

It's unfortunate that THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN will be constantly compared to GONE GIRL which is the better movie. But the former is still pretty good. Emily Blunt acts the hell out herself and the supporting cast is great. But it's a slow paced story next to GONE GIRL and I guess that's what turned a lot of people off. But the twists and direction is solid. Definitely worth a look.
