another taste

: If you watch too many old and beautiful movies and want to change your taste occasionally, this movie should be a good choice. The slow rhythm doesn't make people feel stuffy, and some places even make people feel a little delicate...
: The so-called "thriller" should be embodied in this way, grasping the "psychology" of the characters to make a full article . The details in many parts of the movie are to expand the plot around the psychological characterization of the characters, thereby creating a thrilling atmosphere - whether it is done well or not, in my opinion, a movie that tries to make people scary, the direction of its efforts is That's right, at least it gets rid of (or tries to get rid of) exaggerated body language, violence and pure bloody stimulation...
: I like Jessie's character very much, and some psychological descriptions involving her in the film, subtle and subtle . The absolute climax of the film, when Jessie tries to hide after killing Carlos—especially for fear of exposing her brief infidelity to Roy and covering up her heroin and killing Carlos from Grinko—is dramatic.
: Ben Kingsley is my all-time favorite actor. "Gloomy" has become synonymous with him. The film adds another powerful footnote to the term.
: "In Soviet times people lived in darkness, and now, they die in the light" - this is the role played by Ben Kingsley - a line uttered by a Russian policeman, which is naturally aimed at the present of Russia. This line impressed me quite a bit, but when I chewed it out, it was another taste. There is another line at the beginning of the movie: "Don't mess with the Russian and Chinese police!". Just look at the Russian policemen depicted in the movie (their image!)... If you believe it, alas, the Chinese really can only "create garbage".
: Abby is the only character I didn't really understand at the end. Maybe I overlooked some details in the movie? The money next to Carlos ends up in her hands, and the abrupt end of the movie seems quite inconsistent with Abby's identity as "abducted by Carlos" - what is Abby's identity?

    Quite typical, like some desert hitchhiker

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.
