Transit (2012)

Not a bad film...lots of action, but what's with the director and cameraman? It feels as if EVERY shot is a closeup. Really way overdone with the faces filling the entire screen, wheels spinning in full screen when a panning shot of the chase scenes would have been great. Whenever the camera pulls back and gives us a long shot, the scene works and keeps us interested. I mean so many scenes of those sweaty faces up close...Ugh! Caviezel is good as always. Liked this film, but not the filming! Wondering if this is a habit of this director or cameraman? Will have to check their resumes to see whatever films they've worked on...to avoid them. Shame...this could have been a very good film.

Fmovies: If you like Detroit Muscle, you'll probably like this movie. The director knows what guys like in a movie, (and it's a guy flick) and puts it on the screen in style. There's a couple of brutal fights, a bit of blood here and there, (no boobs though) and then there is the murdered out Chevelle. There are burnouts, mad driving in traffic, it gets sideways, it does high speed 180's. It sounds wicked and the driver likes to push it to it's limits. Makes ya want to look on craigslist and buy some old muscle car and show the kiddies what a real tire-smoking, gas guzzling machine is supposed to sound like. lol. The plot was thin but tolerable, the acting was decent, the car was great. Nuff said.

Lets get straight to the point . I had no idea what this movie was all about because i couldn't find a decent review online, i was expecting a cheap flick with some action here and there. But boy !! i was totally thrilled by the pace and the some pretty cool action. The movie picks up the speed pretty early and never let you settle down.

Without giving away any of the storyline ( there isn't much anyway ). I give this movie something between 6 and a 7 . A solid entertaining flick with quite an adrenaline rush to it .....

I will strongly recommend this movie to any movie lover .....An all round ENTERTAINER !!!

Transit fmovies. A gang of 4 people just robbed a money transport. They stole 4 million dollars and got it in a bag. To get past a road block they hide the money in a family car. The car belongs to a family with 2 children who are going camping together. The plan was to get the money back from them when they pas the road block. This isn't as easy as they thought...

The movie focuses mainly on the robbers chasing the family, while also shining a light on the personal problems of the father and their marriage.

The story is decent. It isn't going to win any awards but it's not a total cliché either. The same can be said about every other aspect. The acting is good. The movie does nothing really wrong and doesn't do anything great either. If you're looking for a fun crime/drama/thriller that isn't a total cliché, this is what you are looking for.

Some small annoyances at the ending. One of the biggest mistakes of them all: always check if your victim is dead. Luckily, this only happens once. At one point a woman takes cover from gunfire behind a tipped table. The (wooden!) table gets hit with shotgun and assault rifle fire. The table seems to be indestructible, there is not a scratch on it.

Besides these faults, there's not much else to tell. I give it a 7 out of 10, key word being "decent".

I wasn't expecting much when I heard about this movie. I thought it would be a B rated action flick that had a typical B rated plot. However, I was surprised by the countless twists in the plot. There was suspense and action from the first scene till the end. Although it was a low budget film, the director did an amazing job making use of the budget. I think the movie is well worth watching.

I am the type of person that watches a movie and likes to make guesses as to what will happen throughout the movie, but surprisingly most of my guesses were incorrect.

Watch it!

I have to say I am a fan of Jim Caviezel and his acting performance was fairly good but the intelligence of the characters left a lot to be desired. If any of the characters had half a brain the film would have been over in about 20 minutes. I suppose the fast pace of the storyline keeps you interested but the storyline itself is pretty pants. The Acting performances were actually OK. It's the screenplay itself that lets it down.

Overall I would say if your bored and don't have much better to watch then, sure give it ago, it's not the worst film in the world, just could have been a lot better. If I could I'd have gave the film a 5 1/2 but I can't so I'll give it a 6 even though I grudge it a wee bit.
