Jelisije J @jjosifovic Apr 27 Donald Sutherland and Sean Connery decide to rob a train in Victorian London......whats not to love. See more Frans B @RT48565227 03/19/2025 Masterpiece. Very well directed. Dialogue absolutely necessary in this story and all the actors perform very well to keep it period correct. Feel - good movie indeed and exciting enough See more CodyZamboni Z @CodyZamboni 11/17/2024 Fun, exciting, amusing, clever, Fascinating in the way they get the keys, and outsmart the security measures, The surprising twists and turns and how Connery and company respond to them, Charismatic lead cast, Memorable Jerry Goldsmith score , Geoffrey Unsworth top notch cinematography, and Connery did all his own stunts, See more nick s @Nick_S 10/10/2024 Impressive sets and costumes. Competent acting. The storyline was solid enough but the movie had a few soft spots. One was that we knew the train robbery was going to happen so getting the keys was a foregone conclusion. Given that, the director spent too much time it... about half the movie. The other issue I had was the comical moments, which detracted from taking the movie seriously. The last frames in particular were a bit silly. See more Will S @WillShetterly 07/20/2024 A smart new edit would trim about twenty minutes, cutting excessive dialogue and the moments when it tries for comedy, and eliminate a lot of the overly-theatrical soundtrack. See more C @RT89813516 12/17/2023 I thought this movie, at times, was excessively violent. A few of the scenes were disturbing. I like the idea of a train robbery movie, but there was no one to root for. Sir Connery was good, but seemed odd portraying master thief Pierce. The train robbery seemed a little too easy, especially, making wax impressions of the four keys. I don't like making train robbers heroes. The cinematography was good. Cheers.
