It's got a 'Speed' vibe to it, which is not a bad thing. And the cast looks good. I'll be seeing it.

I agree here... It's the only promo I've seen in a while that's looked good enough, and I'm not that picky- which says alot.
Speaking of trains, I watched North West Frontier(1959) the other day, and I thought it was great! Had an ironic true to life ending...

CLEVELAND, March 12 -- Carrying picket signs and chanting “remote control has got to go,” more than 300 union members rallied in Washington D.C. yesterday to protest lax federal oversight of remote controlled locomotives.
Members of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, International Brotherhood of Teamsters, and labor leaders representing more than 14 million union members picketed outside of the Federal Railroad Administration’s headquarters for more than an hour. The rally was organized jointly by the BLE and IBT.
In addition to the rally on the front steps of its headquarters, the FRA received two letters yesterday condemning its inactivity on the remote control issue –- one from the AFL-CIO’s Transportation Trades Department and one from Senator Edward M. Kennedy.
BLE President Hahs said more than 40 accidents related to remote control technology have taken place in the past two years. He also said that a trainman near Syracuse, N.Y., was killed in the line of duty while working a remote control job for CSX Transportation in February. President Hahs then asked the question, “How many injuries and deaths will occur before the FRA acts?”

D.C. Train Crash Kills General Who Scrambled Jets on 9/11
Bloomberg.com
June 24, 2009
David F. Wherley Jr., the head of the Washington National Guard who scrambled jets over the city during the 9/11 terrorist attacks, was among those killed in the worst commuter train crash in the city’s history, officials said.
Wherley’s wife, Ann, was also among the nine people killed when a train plowed into the rear of a stopped train during rush hour on June 22, Quintin Peterson, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Police Department, said in a telephone interview. Both were 62 and lived in southeast Washington.
Wherley was commander of the 113th Fighter Wing at Andrews Air Force base in Maryland during the September 2001 terrorist attacks and sent up aircraft with orders to protect the White House and the Capitol, according to the 9/11 Commission report.
He commanded the District of Columbia National Guard from 2003 to 2008, the unit said in a statement.
The operator of the train, Jeanice McMillan, 42, of Springfield, Virginia, was also killed, according to Angela Gates, a spokeswoman for the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority.

Dead men tell no tales. He's the general who disobeyed the illegal order to stand down from Dick Cheney, Don Rumsfeld and the Canadian/British general running NORAD on 9/11. Ho ordered Lt Col Rick Gibney to shoot down United Airlines Flight 93, and he confessed to shooting it down, as seen on History Channel with PirateNews.

Hey, just got home from seeing this, I gotta say I thought it was GREAT! They did a good job with the little time they had for character development, did fairly well on keeping it moving and we thought it was realistic feeling. The last 15 minutes had some nice funny bits. It was a great action packed flick and an excellent feel-good ending. Well worth my bucks!

Okay, Denzel; I'm there.
Even though Book Of Eli sucked. A rare fail.

Agreed, Book of Eli was a rare fail, but not because of Denzel (or my girl Mila Kunis, who is a stone cold fox. Who knew!). The Hughes brothers dropped the ball on this one. The film, as a story, went nowhere, except of course, that a blind man can see how valuable the Bible is(but we already knew that, didn't we).
BoE had great potential and Denzel delivered despite the script. Mila was solid throughout and Gary Oldman was over the top, but in a good way (didn't seem to fit the movie though).
BTW have you noticed the rather carefully crafted career path Mila has been taking since she left That 70s Show. She has opted for small character-driven parts - from her voice work in Family Guy (daughter Meg), to small parts in After Sex, Tony and Tina's Wedding, Forgetting Sarah Marshall (loved her!), Extract (she was really good in that).
She then lands a dream role opposite Denzel Washington in Book of Eli; and follows it up with another solid role in a Darren Aronofsky film Black Swan - opposite Natalie Portman (not long ago I saw a similar story in a japanimation film on Netflix, sorry can't remember the name - but it will come to me). Whoever is making the decisions on which roles to choose - her or her manager - it is a brilliant way to develop one's craft. Well played Mila, well played.
