Unstoppable

Denzel Washington stars in this movie; that should be enough cause to rent. But for the sake of this blog, I'll say more. :)

My first concern was that it was a Denzel Washington movie involving trains not very long after Pelham 123. I knew the movies had different plots, but I was pleasantly surprised by how different the movies really are (most importantly, for me, Denzel's role). Rosario Dawson's character is closest to Denzel's in Pelham 123 and Chris Pine's character ends up being the [biggest] hero.

The movie had all the expected suspense and action, but what was really eating at me throughout was how the 'corporate machine' wanted to handle the situation. The most unnerving part was the feeling that it was probably too accurate.

You know, I'm really not sure what else to say about this movie except "go see it." I almost want to mark this a buy, but I know most people wouldn't enjoy it more than once because they would already know the ending. So I'm calling it a rent, but you should probably put it near the top of your list.
