UnowPriceless hyped garbage
BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.
Alex Kept me engaged. Good action, quite gritty overall and high energy. Quite a few in-your-face surprises. My only criticism is a couple of times the characters made a decision I thought was a bit dumb, but seriously, most movies are like that and this movie was no worse. Definitely worth a watch. Just a random point - what's funny is pretty much the only 2 movies James Frain has been in they've also had Jim Caviezel (this and The Count of Monte Cristo).
bkoganbing The best thing about Transit is that it is realistically photographed in the Louisiana bayou country. I thoroughly expected someone to get eaten by one of the alligators or poisoned by one of the swamp dwelling snakes.The Sidwell family is going on a camping trip to mend some fences. Dad played by Jim Cavaziel has just been released from federal prison for some white collar fraud and he's trying to get to know wife Elizabeth Rohm and kids Jake Cherry and Sterling Knight.But while they're trying to get the family unit functioning, a gang led by Harold Frain has committed a 4 million dollar armored car heist and to elude the police blockade put the loot in the Sidwell's wagon. The rest of the film is the Sidwell family being terrorized by the crooks who want their loot which for a while the family does not they have. When they find out, Rohm suspects the worst about Cavaziel.Nothing terribly special about Transit, not the greatest film I ever saw, but it hardly rates some of the other venomous reviews I read.
lojitsu Here's The Lowedown on "Transit" (A Thriller DVD review)...LIKED IT!!Become a fan of The Lowedown on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/The-Lowedown/386583633764Genre: 8 Movie: 6 What's it about? The camping trip was meant to reunite the Sidwell family. When they are hunted and terrorized by violent bank robbers, their very survival will depend on working together. What did I think? I threw this in my player not expecting much. Then my alarm went off and I woke up to an intense thriller with all the fat trimmed off. Sometimes you want a simple, straightforward approach to a film with no complications or unnecessary twists. When you're in that mood...put this one in your player.
CARTER I'm a film maker myself, I wanted to support this thing, but its just not good enough, and with so much going for it too. You'd think with Jim in there and a hefty action squad supporting the movie that it'd be engaging at least on an entertainment level, but its really not. It's undershot, unpleasant to look at with a weirdly heavy grade, its dialogue heavy and with far too many of the worst interior car scenes I think I've ever seen. I mean Hill Street Blues did car scenes 30 years ago better than these. The Hitcher did it very well. In fact now that I think on it, everyone has shot better interior car scenes than in this film - and its set inside cars!To be fair I abandoned the viewing some 9 out of 12 parts in, and it has a lot of cool car stuff in there, but its ham fisted in its delivery. The editing is just weird, probably from undershooting and some of the small story points they try to make get lost in the edit. Honestly - take my word for it. It's rubbish. It's a waste of money. Stay away.
