I just came back from the movie. Appears audiences like Jodie so the theater was kind a crowded. Basically, this movie is quite entertaining - if you did not think too much in the details of the plot. Jodie is still good in acting this time. However, if you pay more attention to the plot it self - just like so many people said - it is kinda silly and unrealistic. Except this, this movie is still quite good. The director Robert Schwentke uses different suspicious sequences to let audiences fall into his web - to create questions again and again. Honestly, the first part is quite good. Audiences may not easily find out what is actually going on. Then the story comes to find where the daughter is. The movie becomes an ordinary chasing - hiding sequences. I think the director Robert Schwentke wants to show the cold attitude of people nowadays, the relationship between a mother and a daughter, and so on. However, he and the scriptwriter did not pay too much attention to the story itself - I mean too many flaws. It is impossible to hid a six-year-old-girl into the dining car without being seen by ANY of the passengers. Why not Carson just kills Jodie's daughter without any troubles? I think the director/producer and screenplay writer did not notice these. By and large, this movie is still a weekend-entertaining movie.
