REVIEW SUMMARY
"For a movie that is portraying real events and stars the real people from said events, it shockingly comes across as unauthentic. The movie is fairly sleepy and stilted leading up to the incident on the train, which is a great sequence. The problem is, the incident is only 10% of the movie. This is an interesting experiment that didn't quite work. Not Eastwood's best - by far"
