11/29/2020 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 See more 12/19/2013 Thoroughly enjoyable ride... See more 10/02/2012 5 stars for the first episode that couldnt better than that ...a piece of absolute poetic genius and the other two r good but not as perfect as the first one .... See more 12/09/2011 Ù Ù...Ù Ù٠بستا٠زÙØ±Ø (C) See more 11/18/2011 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! See more 06/01/2011 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. See more Read all reviews
