some thoughts

1. The English of this film is really clear. It is estimated that many Russians have deliberately slow English, and there is not much cultural factor mixed in, 100% can hear super clear

2, even so, there are still a few points that I don't understand. The person at the beginning, died when he died, didn't he explain? I watched from behind while waiting to tell the story of the first dead man, thinking it was a flashback. Halfway through, I forgot what the first dead person looked like, and looked back again.

3. When I saw half of it, I felt that the old policeman was pretending, because they did things out of order. I didn't expect it to be a police officer, huh, but a black and white police officer.

4. A question: how did the gang of drug dealers get roy and jessie on that unmanned train? I didn't understand this.

5. The director still showed a very strong American heroism. Especially when Roy escaped to drive the train at the end.

6. Taking the train from Beijing to Moscow, I am tempted, and I will take a trip whenever I want. However, this really requires a company, lest someone shove stuff into your bag along the way.

Overall, the plot is quite compact, not bad.

Transsiberian quotes

  • Roy: [competing with other passenger's tiger scar] Hey, look at this. A deer attacked me.

    passenger: A deer?

    Roy: Yeah, a John Deer power mower!

  • Roy: Hold on there Ilya, don't tell me that you miss the USSR? I mean the USSR was a dark evil empire.

    Grinko: Maybe so. But then we were people living in the darkness, now we are people dying in the light. Which is better? When it was USSR a man lived until 65 years, now it is 58 years. I know this fact very well, I am 58. In Russia now we say there are only 2 kinds people, those who leave in private jet, and those who leave in coffin.

    Jessie: Which are you?

    Grinko: I'm too old to leave. Just do my job.
