Following a stay in Beijing, Roy and Jessie, a couple who are going through a rocky patch, decide to give their relationship one last go and have another adventure together, traveling on the Transsiberian from China to Moscow through exotic, wild and snow-laden places.On the train, Roy and Jessie discover that the days of the Transsiberian's glorious luxury have faded since the fall of the U.S.S.R. The famous train's former glamour has disappeared, leaving cold steel carriages and taciturn fellow passengers, reputed to include drug traffickers. Unwittingly, Roy and Jessie get caught up in the dark world of smuggling and betrayal. And they know that while the train is in motion, there is no means of escape!

Rated 4.0/5 Stars 1 2 3 4 5 StanTheMan 10:49 AM		I always try to be respectful of people that have not seen a particular picture by avoiding spoilers. That said... it makes this film difficult to critique. What I can say is that it uses some fundamental psychological human behaviors and phobias to help involve the audience. Largely and adventure in Siberia on the Trans Siberian Express, the cinematography and shots are both dramatic and bleak. This movie is rough for people who like it a bit edgy and the pacing will take you from complacency to edge of your seat in a single heartbeat. I personally enjoyed it, but have my own reasons for not enjoying "certain types" of violence. Transsiberian is a reasonably powerful movie and worth a look. Enjoy. Stan The Man
