Review of Unstoppable (2010) by Don S — 03 Jan 2014

What a thrilling movie this is! A runaway train, going at high speeds carrying toxic materials, is heading for a largely populated area of Pennsylvania. Corporate greed leads to bad decisions in how to stop it, but two train men, one a veteran facing forced retirement, the other a rookie on a training run, band together to try and stop the juggernaut.

Denzel Washington is a favorite of mine, and Chris Pine is very good here as well. Tense, pulse pounding, nearly non-stop action. Wonderful entertainment.
