Review of Red Line

Red Line (2013)
7/10
Survivors of a terrorist attack on a train cooperate to outwit the bomber.
27 November 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Passengers on a train in Las Angeles get derailed by a bomb. While tending to the wounded, they find a second bomb. They try to figure out how to stop it. They also guess that the bomber is still among them.

The bomber does fairly well at covering his tracks.

They accuse a young man who looks middle eastern, but who grew up in the USA. He's not the bomber, of course.

With some courageous action, they keep themselves from getting blown up.

Do they make it through to rescue?

-------Scores--------

Cinematography: 8/10 OK, though rather dark.

Sound: 8/10 No particular problems, but some better incidental music might have helped the dramatic tension.

Acting: 7/10 John Billingsley was great as the villain. Many of the other actors gave just middling performances.

Screenplay: 8/10 Has a beginning, middle, and an end, plus reasonable dialog.
