This anthology film follows the tales of three different sets of people on the same train. While an aging Italian scholar (Carlo Delle Piane) thinks about a beautiful woman (Valeria Bruni Tedeschi) who assisted him during recent travels, a former soldier (Filippo Trojano) is sent on an unpleasant assignment. Elsewhere on the train, a group of Scottish soccer fans have an unusual encounter with a desperate Albanian family who have been avoiding the train's authorities.

More benign than Three...Extremes and less uneven than Eros, Tickets offers a triptych of slender yet genuine delights.

Rated: 3/4

These type of portmanteau films seldom work out as well as does this one.

This is a marvelous character study, a terrific exercise in cinematic storytelling, and one of the year's best films.

Rated: 5/5

the first half of the film started nicely but it didn't actually go anywhere, for some reason 3 young Scottish screaming lads occupied the second half with a very weak migrant theme as a backdrop, the end

I like this movie. Enjoyable beginning to end. There is no overall story arc, so don't look for that. Just travelers, on a train. Not a travelogue, not at all: a journey of personal interactions. Vividly portrayed, realistic, convincing. Not lacking for drama though!

Rating: 3.3/5. Interesting stories in this film. Pretty much all of the film is set in a train. The acting by some of the actors is not always good. I liked the camerawork. Overall, it is a fine, entertaining film, but nothing special.
