choose good

After watching this movie, I realized more deeply that you have chosen the way you are now. Maybe you're not sure what you want, maybe you want everything, maybe you're afraid to let others know what you really want. Having made a choice, you may do a lot to fulfill the choice, and you may also make a lot of efforts to save the choice that makes you want to re-choose. Life has been doing multiple choice questions, to be, or not to be, that'sa question. You have to always remember what you want to be.

The Commuter quotes

  • Sofia: Ricky was a city planner, and some nights he would have to work late, so I-I would go to his office to finish my homework. I was waiting for Ricky by the elevator when these two men show up. I didn't see their faces, but they were looking for Ricky. I hid 'cause I didn't wanna get him in trouble. But they wanted something from him. Then all of them start yelling, and I hear this noise. They were hurting him. I could hear him screaming. And he tells them that he doesn't have it, that it's back at his place.

    Michael MacCauley: You took it.

    Sofia: Of course I took it. I wanted to help. And then I look through the doorway and I see this guy. He's holding Ricky, and he hits him, and he says something about being noble.

    Michael MacCauley: Noble?

    Sofia: He says that doing the right thing will get you killed, and that there's no such thing as being noble. And then, they just... I didn't... I didn't know what to do. I...

    Michael MacCauley: I know.

    Sofia: I just took it, and... and I ran.

    Michael MacCauley: Why didn't you call the police?

    Sofia: I couldn't call the police. The men who killed him were cops.

  • Michael MacCauley: So, I heard something earlier today, a hypothetical question.

    Tony: Uh-huh. What was the question?

    Michael MacCauley: What if someone asked you to do one little thing, something that's meaningless to you, but would affect another passenger on this train? Would you do it?

    Tony: I don't know. What's in it for me?

    Michael MacCauley: $100,000.

    Tony: Absolutely!

    Michael MacCauley: You don't even know what it is.

    Tony: It doesn't matter. Come on.

    Jackson: So, what is that one little thing?

    Michael MacCauley: A passenger on this train doesn't belong. They're carrying a bag, but you don't know what it looks like. All you have to do is find them before they get off.

    Tony: That's it? It's not much to go on, Mike.

    Michael MacCauley: Tell me about it.

    Jackson: And what happens when you find 'em?

    Michael MacCauley: They die. Hypothetically.

    Tony: So what would you do, Mike?

    Michael MacCauley: I'd get all the people left on the train in one car, propose that very scenario.

    Tony: No, no, no, no, no. I mean, would you take the money?

    Michael MacCauley: You know what? I already did.
