Imagine being an American on an old soviet era train, for a multi-day crossing of cold yet breathtaking Siberia. And to spice things up, you find yourself in the midst of a murder a drug running operation and Russian cop Grinko (Ben Kingsley) who's attempting to uncover your involvement with it all. Multiply all this by five and you will begin to appreciate the most suspenseful film I've seen in years.
Transsiberian is a screenplay starring Roy (Woody Harrelson), a train enthusiast and his unhappy wife Jennie (Emily Mortimer). They are Americans who start their journey in Beijing in an attempt to cross Siberia and end their journey in Moscow. Soon after leaving China they are joined by mysterious cabin mates, Carlos (Eduardo Noriega) a Spaniard, and his young American companion Abby (Kate Mara).
On an early train stop Roy becomes absorbed with examining old train engines. So much so that he misses his train which sends his wife in a panic which starts a chain of events which will have you chewing your nails down to nubs. Are they innocent, being framed or just clueless in regards to safe international travel?
Transsiberian is not a slasher or horror flick; it's a deceptive drama-mystery thrill ride that will keep you unsettled for several minutes after exiting the theatre. If you are up for a tension filled 21st century suspense spectacle, this film is for you!
