Unstoppable (2010)

I was 20 minutes late and the person who sold the ticket at the cinema let me see the movie for free (since the movie had already ran for 20 minutes). Weird.
The movie is about a giant train that due to some technical errors, moves on its own at a speed that is too fast to be stopped, hence the title.

To make matter worse, the train is carrying chemical that is dangerous to the population (cliche huh).

Coming to the rescue is a train engineer (Denzel Washington) and a young conductor (Christ Pine).

What I like about this movie?

The noise and the explosion of course. What else do you expect from an action thriller film?
And, don't you wish you were in the devil train, running 74 mph? (this is coming from a person who think 100 times before taking a roller coaster ride)
Plus, the movie takes place in Pennsylvania =)
Denzel and Christ's acting were great too.

Overall I'll give it a 7/10 for lack of originality.
