Trans-Siberian: Brad Anderson ( The Machinist, Session 9 )

Posted by grinagog on January 19, 2009 at 20:00:57:
is given a decent budget, Woody Harrelson + (Sir) Ben Kingsley; who shows ( as he did in Sexy Beast ) that he can be a very accomplished Bad Guy; this time as a bent Russian narcotics detective

Add a couple of very capable supporting actresses, filmed with a background of decaying Russian countryside in snow both on ( + off ) the Trans-Siberian express, all makes for a rolliking ride that's well worth taking

The Story is almost irrellevant here; ( Credulity strains easilly ), Suggest: just go for the ride + enjoy the action, scenery + attractive women+ don't be concerned about the coincidences, continuity + occasional lack thereof....

Brad Anderson showing again that he's a very capable filmmaker ( oh; Next Stop Wonderland is another one of his films )

Two frost-bitten thumbs up
