Very exciting thriller and good acting.

Also a bit standard.

Nice film in which a woman witnesses a Mafia murder and her life is no longer certain. A simple plot, largely set in a train. The film is easy to watch and is even a bit tense here and there. The scene where Gene Hackman negotiates with the two bad guys in the dining car is worth mentioning. Easily 3.0 stars.

Cat and mouse on a train

Exciting and playful thriller with a prosecutor who has to protect a murder witness. One detail: they are stuck on a train with two hitmen who will do everything they can to liquidate the witness before arrival. Hackman again plays a nice role and takes the film to a higher level. There is plenty of action. A bit much back and forth on the train but I enjoyed the whole ride. The ending is unfortunately very weak; however, there was potential for a strong final.
