Con Express (2002 Video)
5/10
This Movie is OK
15 September 2010
Warning: Spoilers
It's a good movie, for a B-List action flick. I mean, the only real headliners are Sean Patrick Flannery and Arnold Vosloo. It is a direct-to-DVD release that has a LOT of footage from other movies.

SPOILERS: If you haven't seen the movie, then please, skip down. The most annoying parts are the plane crash (taken from Stallone's movie "Cliffhanger" and some of the train scenes taken from some 1985 movie I've never heard of. The other annoying part is that in the climax of the movie, the true bad guy (played by Tim Thomerson) shoots 15 shots from a 6-shot revolver. I mean, I thought Hollywood was done with that when the old spaghetti western went out with John Wayne. Please, if you are going to have a guy shoot that many shots, at least give him a Baretta. END OF SPOILERS

So, overall, if you like action films, this one is good. It has plenty of action, plenty of OK special effects, and a good story. If anything, Arnold Vosloo is a highlight as the film's main antagonist, as he has plenty of psychotic henchmen. He even makes some of the cheesy, action movie cliché dialog believable.
