Unstoppable (1:38) 2010

New on DVD

I saw Unstoppable on the big screen and didn't move a muscle the entire time. The time in the theater whizzes by as fast as the runaway train. Denzel Washington is my favorite actor and the reason I went to see the movie. He was his usual excellent self and the movie was spellbinding. Through a series of mishaps, a runaway train carrying toxic chemicals is barreling down the tracks and all the safety settings are off. As far fetched as this seems, the movie is based on true events. Washington and a new employee, Chris Pine, risk their lives to bring the train to a halt. The scenes go back and forth between the train and the control center which is a bee hive of activity in clearing the tracks of passenger trains. If you want an intense, totally absorbing hour and half of nonstop suspense, then "All Aboard."
