Plot ... One of those legendary train trips that people used to dream about taking, the Transsiberian Express has probably seen better days. An American couple, Roy and Jessie, decide to return home the long way from their recent sojourn in Peking and meet another couple from the West, Carlos and Abby, with whom they quickly form that tenuous bond that often unites fellow travelers away from home. When Roy gets separated from the train at a stopover, Jessie begins to realize that their compatriots aren't exactly who or what they seem to be. But the real dangers of their unforgettable trip have only begun to surface.
Cast ... Woody Harrelson, Emily Mortimer, Ben Kingsley, Kate Mara
If you are looking for a edge of your seat mystery/thriller Transsiberian is the movie for you. I got so engrossed in this movie I forgot to make popcorn at the midpoint of the movie (something I always do)! The suspense continues to build to the end of this well constructed movie which has great performances by everyone.
As for the Blu-ray quality ... if you are looking for those usual super sharp, stunning images you often get on a Blu-ray disc you will not find them in this movie. But the images are very suited to the location ... the stark, snowy eastern Russian landscape ... and subject matter.
Very highly recommended!
