EPT+ Show Spoiler +
When the whole train froze when they disconnected him, was the perfect time to end the show. Would give the show a sorta bittersweet, poignant end. Instead...they tried too hard...parallel universe...SIGH

Let's recap some things: You're dead but we won't let you die because we've plugged you to life support. Shoutout to Mr. Schroedinger! Yeah, tell him some things, then tell him he doesn't really have any choice because you're going to send him back in again and again and again, regardless of his choice. Then, when he's got enough: *playback dad's speech* - Send me back in! Stuff like that made it really crappy. Instead of all this bullshit, they could've opted for a singularity approach, where they've developed some early form of this technology but don't fully understand it yet. They have extracted dying soldier's consciousnes, as well as someone's from the train (whose head was miraculously preserved well enough or something, with the last 8 minutes of memory remaining). Now they're sending him in there, which would be the equivalent of loading a save game right at the moment when a boss jumps at you, no going back and must figure out how to beat him. Then, focus the movie on his efforts within the train, trying out various things, instead of this "am I dead or what?", "can I save them and why not?" bullshit. Could have made for an interesting detective story at least... | ||

7/10 EDIT: I just watched the trailer, haven't seen any before and I can definitely say that trailers give out waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much information. You already get the whole plot basically except little dramatic moments. Every movie I watch without knowing anything about it beforehand is the best experience. | ||

But no, they had to bring in some BS disney happy ending, I left the movie disappointed because of that ending. This. A million times this. Thank you, sir or madam, for being awesome. | ||

Good to watch with your girlfriend, it has a good balance of action and emotional scenes. My wife nearly fell asleep at this movie and I must say I was pretty bored myself. There are better movies to go to with your girlfriend. | ||

the real hole of the entire movie is the script/story was bad. Lots of stuff doesnt make sense. If you ever read manga about alternative reality or ever do any research about it. You could point out that the author cant understand the matter at all to written such shit like this. on the bright side, the got some good actors/acting. Camera effect was good. i will give it a 6-/10 with 0 is some german porn and 10 is Casablanca. | ||

I think it varies from person to person, like Transformers. But, I think this movie was worth my $5. | ||
