In this nail-biting thriller, Dr. Lewis Shaler (Dougray Scott, Mission: Impossible II) boards a night train with his young son, Max. As he chats with a friendly fellow passenger, Sarah (Kara Tointon, EastEnders), he idly wonders why the train isn't following its normal route. When the train hurtles past their stopes, Shaler and the other passengers realize something is seriously wrong. Communications are down and the emergency brakes don't work. As the train rockets dangerously down the tracks and crashes through whatever is put in its path, Shaler and the rest of the passengers take matters into their own hands. But they're no match for this multi-ton monster careening down a path to utter destruction.

3/5

This has the potential to become a camp classic of UK cinema, with the mundane British setting amusingly at odds with the disaster-thriller delivery.

2.5/4

It (almost literally) runs off the rails with a series of twists that ultimately invite more laughs than tension.

Mr. Nooshin stirs a mystery that's light on special effects and bravely uncomplicated.

3/4

Here's a pleasant surprise, an under-the-radar thriller in the tradition of Steven Spielberg's Duel.

...the deeper engine of Last Passenger is a humanistic impulse, the belief that we can improve ourselves and our lot by working together and even sacrificing for one another when necessary...

1.5/5

Completely unremarkable and pedestrian in every sense, a speeding train hurtling toward an impending doom has never seemed so dull.

A nice taut thrill ride. Ending disappoints

It's not a Hollywood blockbuster, but a modest little British film. It's was well-acted (for the most part), very suspenseful, and worth the time. There's no complex plot with a surprise ending: it's very simple. Some nut takes over the train and tries to speed towards the end of the line. I'm not spoiling anything--this is all in the synopsis.

Good at adding the emotional component. not good enough to leave a lasting impression

Seems to limp in many places, the decisions and characters are not so believable. Acting is good, but not perfect and the suspense is not so... suspenseful after all. Only as a second-selection.
