Review of Derailed

Derailed (2002)
6/10
Die Hard meets Outbreak
23 April 2005
Warning: Spoilers
Normally I wouldn't mind criticism of Van Damme's movies, but in this case its justified. Don't get me wrong, its a semi-decent action flick since it was a made for TV movie, but the overall plot basically combines Outbreak with Die Hard. Terrorists hijack a train to steal a virus that gets out and infects everyone.

The overall movie wasn't Van Damme's best work but what the hell, wasn't exactly a major Hollywood production.

The one thing I don't understand was why Mason killed Natasha, sure she infected the whole entire train but you'd think he'd keep her around in case....you know, Van Damme gets away and starts killing Mason's team.

Either way I'm not gonna be too harsh with a rating because it wasn't exactly a Double Impact like script.
