In this nail-biting thriller, Dr. Lewis Shaler (Dougray Scott, Mission: Impossible II) boards a night train with his young son, Max. As he chats with a friendly fellow passenger, Sarah (Kara Tointon, EastEnders), he idly wonders why the train isn't following its normal route. When the train hurtles past their stopes, Shaler and the other passengers realize something is seriously wrong. Communications are down and the emergency brakes don't work. As the train rockets dangerously down the tracks and crashes through whatever is put in its path, Shaler and the rest of the passengers take matters into their own hands. But they're no match for this multi-ton monster careening down a path to utter destruction.

This has the potential to become a camp classic of UK cinema, with the mundane British setting amusingly at odds with the disaster-thriller delivery.

Rated: 3/5

Seattle Times

It (almost literally) runs off the rails with a series of twists that ultimately invite more laughs than tension.

Rated: 2.5/4

Mr. Nooshin stirs a mystery that's light on special effects and bravely uncomplicated.

Here's a pleasant surprise, an under-the-radar thriller in the tradition of Steven Spielberg's Duel.

Rated: 3/4

...the deeper engine of Last Passenger is a humanistic impulse, the belief that we can improve ourselves and our lot by working together and even sacrificing for one another when necessary...

Completely unremarkable and pedestrian in every sense, a speeding train hurtling toward an impending doom has never seemed so dull.

Rated: 1.5/5

The Donansk character's accent didn't sound real to me. I guess the trains back then in 2013 didn't have defibrillators for the A&E consultant. I thought with the money he would make he could afford more than a timex watch what he was wearing. The film has some violence, no sexual scenes some strong language.

Not sure where the critics came up with a high rating for LAST PASSENGER but it becomes boring and the ending is incomplete. The audience ratings are lower than the critics, yet are still too high. Zzzzzzzz ✨😴✨

The stakes are high. Random people will become close. And there has to be a solution to the speeding train. Makes me want to research modes of transportation for weaknesses. I don't want me or anyone in a hopeless situation like this.

Once it got going, this turned out to be a good little thriller. The acting was natural and I thought that the boy played his part very well.
