“Last Passenger” isn’t a particularly innovative movie, but it does have
the sense to at least attempt to break away from the thriller norm. A
runaway train picture spotlighting a collection of desperate commuters,
the film isn’t about pinpointing the root of all evil, instead valuing
the cinematic appeal of sheer panic in the face of possible doom,
working nuances of character over an enormous display of malice. For
some, the lack of explicit evil behavior will register as frustrating,
as the feature does lack a certain edge when it comes to antagonism.
Others might enjoy the change in scenery, as “Last Passenger” is more
interested in the steps of survival, not the mechanics of villainy.
