Movie Reviews

Irish Independent - 10/10 by Paul WhitingtonThings get pretty hammy towards the end, too, but perhaps that's to be expected in this kind of movie, which reminded me a bit of Gone Girl but also of enjoyably silly 80s thrillers like Fatal Attraction.
Tri-City Herald - 10/10 by Gary WolcottThis conductor says get off the train. Your stop this weekend is The Girl on the Train. A terrific whodunnit-thriller that features the year's best acting so far.
Laramie Movie Scope - 9/10 by Robert RotenWomen finally wise up and take control at the very end of the story, and that is supposed to make up for all the voyeurism and passivity that goes before. I resent having to suffer through all that nonsense for such a brief payoff at the end.
ABC Radio Brisbane - 9/10 by Matthew ToomeyThe Girl on the Train offers intrigue and a few red herrings but doesn't provide a knockout punch.
Espinof - 9/10 by Mikel ZorrillaThe only good thing about this film is Blunt's work, but it's not enough to compensate how bad is this movie. [Full review in Spanish]
Showbiz Junkies - 9/10 by Rebecca MurrayThe Girl on the Train is an absorbing, page-turning (or page-swiping) whodunit, but it doesn't have quite the same impact as a feature film.
Wall Street Journal - 9/10 by John AndersonThe film never quite succeeds, simply because the book’s core virtues do not lend themselves to cinema.
Star-Democrat (Easton, MD) - 9/10 by Greg MakiWith her boozy slur and the black holes in her memory, Rachel is the definition of "unreliable narrator," and the story works best when it unfolds from her blurry point of view.
The Playlist - 9/10 by Kevin JagernauthKeeping things on the right side of watchable are the performances, none of which are particularly revelatory, but all of them serving the territory their role in the story requires. Blunt and Bennett both rise above the pack, but even so, the screenplay doesn’t give them dimension until almost too late.
FILMINK (Australia) - 9/10 by Erin Free...a tough-minded, uncompromising film that unpicks the quiet horrors of suburban life...
