Unstoppable – The Classic Train Crash

When accidents occurs, is it just a classic tale that people just talks about or is it another accident that went wrong from the onset? Unstoppable entails a Train that wasn’t suppose to leave the Train depot, which left in a very terrible and uncontrollable way, first of all, the engineer didn’t fix the emergency brakes that can be triggered if this kind of event happens, secondly he kept the gear on full throttle which means that the train can pick up speed at it’s disposal. Will (“Chris Pine”) who just came into his new job as the Conductor got to work along side with Frank (“Denzel Washington”) who is a 28 years veteran engineer in the Train/locomotive Industry. Frank was assigned to tutor and monitor Will and make him learn how to control and operate a Train. Unstoppable MovieIn Will’s first day as a conductor, mayhem happens, the Engineer in-charge of Train 727 forgot to fix it’s brakes and left the train unmanned, which when it started rolling out slowly, he couldn’t stop it and finally the train became a Coaster – which basically means an unmanned train moving at a very fast pace. Meanwhile Frank and Will were doing their shift in another train which has passed from Pennsylvania while this unmanned train was going to pass through Pennsylvania to Stanton which is a very high populated area carrying hundred thousand tonnes of chemical, which if it derails or crashes can cause a massive explosion as Big as the Chrysler building. After many attempts by the Train Company, it seems as though the train couldn’t be stopped, so Frank and Will embarked on a mission to stop the train at all cause before it reaches Pennsylvania which has a curve on the track that if the Train turns there at it’s speed which was about 70Km/h, it can derail and crash over buildings and a power plant which can kill thousands of people. Despite being given a 90 days notice to be fired without good pension from the Train company which he worked with, Frank was willing to sacrifice his life in doing what he felt was right to save innocent lives. In the end Will was able to reach the 1st Coach of the Train after performing a Train-to-Car-to-Train jump in order to reach and finally stop the moving Train. Both employees got congratulated for their heroism and both lived happily afterward. One thing i found out about this movie was that, in the movie, Will had a problem with his wife and both weren’t speaking to each other until the train crisis were Will’s wife saw the news on the TV and decided to call Will, i kept on asking myself this, Is it only during crisis that if two people who love each other are having problem can come back together, but without those crisis being there, would they’ve come back together? And i think this really happens because it’s at that moment you get to feel that if you didn’t reach out to that special someone, you won’t be able to tell him or her how you really do feel about them.
