Very exotic train movie updating the old orient express genre.This time its drugs and corruption that go along with it.The cast rocks with my new fav Kate Mara as Abby and that grand old master Ben Kingsley as Grinko amongst the best.Released in 2008 its a little long at 112 minutes ands when you get down to it,nothing new from a lot of drug smuggling movies but the exotic location.It's also a little violent for my tastes so thats why I took 2 stars off.Still you can do far worse.Trailer URL below the pix and a IMDB summary below.
Americans abroad. Roy and Jessie finished a volunteer stint in China. He loves trains, so they go home via the Trans-Siberia Express. There are strains in the relationship, including her past. They meet Carlos, a Spaniard, traveling with Abby, a young American. Carlos keeps close to Jessie, and when Roy is left behind and waits a day for the next train so he can catch up, Jessie and Carlos take a trip into the dead of winter to photograph a ruined church. Carlos may be running drugs, so, later, when Roy catches up and introduces Jessie to his new pal, an English speaking Russian narcotics detective, he's the last person Jessie wants to see. Will the Siberian desolation be their undoing? Written by <jhailey@hotmail.com>
