Woody Harrelson looked lost and confused in this movie, much like the character he plays in this movie. Avril Lavigne did a great job, considering that she hasn't had much acting experience. But overall the movie is about as boring as watching grass grow through frozen ice. 2 Stars ⭐⭐ out of 5 - @Tuesday, July 3, 2018 8:22 AM

I know many watchers think the woman is annoying as fuck but I say she is one hell of genius. Calculating bitch. - @Tuesday, October 24, 2017 12:38 AM

Got to watch War Dogs recently. Obviously, these are two very different movies but the way both capture the feeling of being lost in translation & experience of traveling was top notch. Sure the "suspense" & plot of Transsiberian was semi-predictable, but the cinematography, acting, and production values were top notch. - @Tuesday, September 6, 2016 11:33 PM

I don't know if anyone noticed this. They're Christian missionaries and when the girl gets with that Spanish guy and they start kissing in the abandoned church some pieces of wood falls from the church and that's when she realised she did something wrong. Funny how the director did that. - @Saturday, April 16, 2016 4:26 AM

I commend whoever wrote this movie. Specially the one who made Emily's character. I have never been so pissed and annoyed at someone's movie character's utter stupidity. Of all the movies I've seen, Emily's character definitely takes the cake. And the fact that she herself the actress, particularly her face when she's lying, panicking, nervous is so damn annoying, made me really wanna slap her. - @Friday, July 10, 2015 7:24 PM

Very uninteresting movie with higly predictive plot. It was also very boring. I was hoping to see some nice shots of nature as I traveled by this route twice in my life, but no, not in this movie as all its shots of nature were made in Latvia which is in fact in Europe and is totally different from what I saw ( p.s. acting were also not on good level was expecting more from Kingsley and Harrelson - @Saturday, August 2, 2014 1:27 AM

It's always the go-to argument for conspiracy theorist that others just don't understand, or that they "can't comprehend" the truth. It's an argument that's grown from the fact that anytime someone believes absurd conspiracy theories their intelligence comes into question, which I guess makes a lot of them self conscious. - @Thursday, July 18, 2013 5:28 PM

Holy shit, man. Did you really just recommend someone watch Zeitgeist? It's nothing but propaganda and conspiracy theories whose facts don't hold up under any degree of scrutiny. - @Saturday, July 6, 2013 12:41 AM

Zeitgeist? Seriously.......That ''documentary'' is the biggest bullshit created the past few years...check the ''facts'' in zeitgeist and u'll see it's all lies. Don't believe whatever bullshit you see that its labeled as a documentary. - @Tuesday, January 8, 2013 4:00 PM

Instead of watching shit you should get out in real life and see how much shit Russia is active in today. It's a liberal dream that America is raping the world when Russia in fact is supporting genocides in Asia by supporting dictators and their ways. Even IN Russia people get silenced on an everyday basis. I live on the border to Russia and grew up with Russians immigrants, there is nothing cute or free about that bloody nation. Let me ask you somethign, where are you from? - @Friday, October 12, 2012 8:52 AM

very informative documentary on modern propaganda. if you want to get deeper into it you should watch the Zeitgeist documentaries. - @Monday, September 24, 2012 7:49 PM

The truth is, most of Russia is actually like that. The capitals like Moscow, Sint Petersburg etc are more clean but the outside of for example Grozny is like this. Poor people, corruption, ... it's all there. In some places you'd say Russia got stuck during the medievals and I'm not exaggerating. I've been to certain parts of Russia and you couldn't imagine people still live that way. Not every movie is propaganda you know. I bet you also believe the illumanati theories, - @Sunday, September 9, 2012 9:22 PM

What about the evil, Arab Muslim terrorist or the ominously scary Chinese communists who plan to take over the world, or the ubiquitously poverty-stricken Africans who children as soldiers...and the many more national/geopolitical stereotypes? Most movies tend to give a narrow definition of what the world looks like, hence why you should not rely on movies for accurate depiction of reality. But I will look up "Subconscious War" anyway :) - @Monday, August 20, 2012 12:37 AM

Actually, I think Brad Anderson's best film, by far, is Session 9. This, The Machinest, Next Stop Wonderland, Happy Accidents - all have good parts, and flaws. But none of them match the intensity and impact of Session 9. - @Wednesday, April 18, 2012 2:41 AM
