Ryan H 02/04/2025 Can’t remember a bit of it - couldn’t have been that good See more Lizzie G @RT5678904221124 6d Heard good things about this film. Once you get past the slow pace at the beginning and it starts to pick up, it becomes a really good film with plenty of twists. Great cast, Emily Blunt is fantastic, and I love Rebecca Ferguson.

If the main character was a man and violence to obtain oil or money was the focus it would have been embraced better by audiences. The main character is a woman and the life and death quest is for love and family. I wanted to know if she would get off and each character had a serious dark side to them. It would have been a five if there was more nuance to the male characters. They were varying shades of misogyny, mendacity, and manipulation. This is a movie worth viewing and talking about out.

Without her this film would have been a snooze. The film moves at the speed of a delayed commuter train, and I don't think it's for everyone because there's a lot to take in. Stick with it, though, and you're rewarded with a solid story and a satisfying ending. See more Louis W. @Sundance1954 Jun 15 Read the book instead. See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Jun 10 The Girl on the Train had an interesting concept, but I found the movie surprisingly boring. It tries to build suspense through mystery and multiple perspectives, yet it never fully pulls you into the story. Instead of feeling tense or exciting, much of the film feels slow, flat, and emotionally disconnected. The performances are decent, especially from Emily Blunt, but the screenplay never gives the actors enough to work with. The story keeps hinting that something major is coming, but the payoff never feels worth the buildup. Rather than creating momentum, the film simply drifts from scene to scene. The biggest problem is that there is very little emotional investment. Even after watching the entire movie, I never felt connected to the characters or fully engaged in the mystery. Overall, The Girl on the Train is watchable, but it feels bland and forgettable. It had the potential to be a gripping thriller, yet it never develops into anything truly memorable.
