Tried too hard to be sensational...failed

Rating: 2/10 (17 April 2017)

This movie could have been really good but there are major, major problems. The train wreck was way over done. For one thing, at one point early on in the train crash the train was wrecking behind where the kids were running but they were reacting to something in front of them, which I guess was the train wrecking, but then how could it wreck on both sides of them? Then there is the fact that the guy that drove the pick up into the train caused the train to crash in such a dramatic way. It would take a train running into another train head on to create anything even remotely similar to what we saw (even then the way the trains were flying was probably 20 times more spectacular by far than any real train wreck in history). Then how does the man in the pick up not only survive running his pick up into what must have been an extremely fast moving train for it to have crashed the way it did, his vehicle also was shown to explode into a large ball of fire on impact. And so not only does he live, he is well enough to talk and move his arms around? Incredibly unrealistic. I also have major problems the intense contrasting in volume in this movie. You have to turn the TV up loud to hear what they are saying then something designed to startle the audience happens and the volume suddenly becomes a thousand times louder. Its annoying as heck. I won't blindly like what should be a good movie with so much nonsense thrown into it.
