A good movie but just not enough to live up to horror movies these days

Rating: 9/10 (16 July 2007)

WARNING: The Information Contains Spoilers To This Movie, do not read if you haven't watched the film. To everyone who has/hasn't seen the film and want to know if its worth watching or not please do not read this form, watch the movie first then read this bulletin. Thank you! This movie was decent, it has its ups and downs. The storyline for example wasn't very strong and there was to much gore and little fright. Fright is the main quality to horror movies, gore is just added to make it better in different ways. By grossing out the viewers and making it realistic so that each time you see the gory part it'll be easier to watch and that you can understand the movie better. Horror movies these days are very bad to be honest. The story lines and screenplays are very hard to perform and perfect it out so that viewers can enjoy it, and the acting is very important too otherwise you can't take the character seriously if they can't act. The good things about this movie was that the acting was good, it has its moments in both gore and fright (but more of gore) and its worth watching compared to other horror movies these days. The ways in which the main character survives/escapes in this movie is very difficult to understand and a lot of viewers that watched this movie think its bull or he just got lucky. But if you look on the bright side how else is the main character going to live? If the main character died whats the point of watching this film? It would be hard to make a sequel to live up to the original without knowing what really happened. That is why when you saw how Paxton escaped at first then heard the scream of the Asian girl (i think she's Asian) he went back to her and rescued her when he could have escaped without having the risk to get caught but he succeeded when 9 times out of 10 he would have died if it was real and not a movie. The reason that the directors and script writers do that is to show the heroic side of the character and that he/she can show their true self in the movie to show that he/she is worth watching and worth living. That is why in horror movies when viewers are watching the film they will say "get out of the house/don't open the door" it basically creates a mood and gets you excited to see what happens. Because everyone is like that, but when the survivor escapes they have to have a moment of heroic time (people say) so that its more interesting and that the main character escapes and leaves just like that! That is not interesting it just shows that the writer/directer rushed the film and that its not worth viewing. I am basically saying that Paxton did this and he was the hero of the film he avenged his friends at the end and escaped (thanks to the Asian girl because of her distraction to hope on the train). Please read this and think things over with this movie even if you hated it just look on the bright side and accept it for the way it is. Thank you all for reading this and hope that you all agree with me.
P.S. I give 9/10 because horror movies are not perfect these days for a 10.
