Audience Member TV MOVIE. The original version of Tony Scott's awful Unstoppable. This version is actually better in every regard. ABC 10/28/1979 Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member suspense, but otherwise fails... no disaster... Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member This made-for-TV cheesefest features a bunch of mid-level character actors doing their mid-level best with the usual disaster plot points. It's fun if completely forgettable. Shatner is great as a conman and Lloyd Bridges is bugnuts playing the Luddite Secret Serviceman. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Who cares about its dopey story? This is a surprising TV disaster movie. It boasts a terrific cast, impressive stunt photography, & excellent visual effects, especially on Shatner's hairpiece. Even his stunt double overacts! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member TV made suspense movie isn't really very good but if you're a fan of disaster movies or spoofs thereof this is one to see. It's hard to take too seriously since Lloyd Bridges' dialogue here really is a foreshadowing of his role in Airplane! As for the rest it's all pretty standard. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member An obvious made-for-tv 70s disaster flick involving not one, but two runaway trains and a cast of lowrent character actors like Lloyd Bridges, William Shatner, Pat Hingle, Raymond Burr, and Lane Smith. It's goofy and rather stupid, but those involved give their all and you can't help but enjoy Bridges' computer hate or Shatner's heroic rooftop plight or the yardmen's chain gang bravado. If yer in the mood for disaster than this will get the job done. VF. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
