For the second time in two years Denzel Washington is in a train movie. I guess people have to get their goods across the Rocky Mountains somehow, but I’m not entirely sure why Denzel Washington thinks we want to watch him do it. If at first you don’t succeed, try again, I suppose and Denzel Washington’s generally stellar track record suggests that it’s nearly impossible for him to make two bad movies in which he’s riding the rails. I guess that means Unstoppable might be good.

Below we have five clips from the movie which suggest that yes, there’s hope this will be better than that movie with John Travolta in a goatee, even if the premise sounds like something that fell out of a 1982 TV movie of the week. It stars Denzel Washington and Chris Pine as a pair of train engineers who decide to chase down a runaway engine, and in the process thrill audiences by nearly getting themselves killed. You’ll have to fight through the first clip, which is generally terrible and involves ridiculous hazing because, apparently, train engineers hate people without wrinkles, but once you get to the action sequences you’ll feel better about Unstoppable.
