When a massive, unmanned locomotive roars out of control, the threat is more ominous than just a derailment. The train is laden with toxic chemicals, and an accident would decimate human life and cause an environmental disaster. The only hope of bringing the train to a safe stop is in the hands of a veteran engineer (Denzel Washington) and a young conductor (Chris Pine), who must risk their lives to save those in the runaway's path. Inspired by true events.

Wendy Ide The Times (UK) It’s a genuinely thrilling nail-biter. Jul 31, 2023 Full Review Keith Uhlich Time Out Let’s give credit where it’s due: Scott’s on his A-game — as opposed to, ugh, Spy Game — for this occasionally exhilarating piece of popcorn cinema. Rated: 3/5 Mar 23, 2023 Full Review Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online Packed with stunts that would make even Tom Cruise grimace, Unstoppable is an adrenaline-fueled action flick that leaves you at the edge of your seat until the very end. Rated: B+ Sep 9, 2017 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Scott delivers an exciting and fast-paced ride that audiences will enjoy, largely due to the affability of his two leading men. Rated: 2.5/4 Aug 3, 2023 Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson You will never see a more growling, intimidating, and unrelenting inanimate object in a movie like this train. Rated: 4/5 Mar 8, 2022 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Director Tony Scott certainly likes action films and casting Denzel Washington.

Ali B Absolute see, for a thrill addict! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/21/25 Full Review Audience Member This movie is perfectly acted, written, and directed. I didn’t find the storyline all that interesting and wondered how they could make a full 2 hour movie out of that premise, but I was wrong. It’s a non-stop thrill ride from start to finish.
