I had high hopes for this film, I had seen the trailers for it and thought it would be worth a viewing. Maybe I think too much sometimes!
The film starts fairly normally, a quick death at the beginning as do many of these films and soon after we encounter the subway. Now the main character Kate is awaiting a train in the subway, the last train I might add but unfortunately she falls asleep and misses it.... Now maybe I'm being a little picky here but how in thee blue hell can u sleep in a subway station as a train comes by and screeches to a halt as you wait? Now I am a deep sleeper and I think that would wake me up no problems, the only assumption I can make is she has hearing problems.....
Anyway back to the film... So she has now awoken and is locked in the station, never a good situation. This is where it all kicks off, I won't go into detail but its the usual story, killer on the loose, people being killed and Kate being stalked throughout by a unknown assailant.
So a few deaths later and a bit more stalking he finally catches up with her and we finally see the killer in what is actually a good scene finally.
He is basically a deformed guy who isn't playing with a full deck. Now later on we see a surgery which is in the subway, where it seems there were certain things going on that shouldn't have been and this guy is seemingly 1 of these test subjects. All is explained, apart from the fact that there is an operating theatre in a subway? Ahh well I suppose its as good as the next place why not have it in a subway....
So the chasing continues, we get to the end where the killer is finally stopped by a metal hook to the throat which is attached to a chain that is then thrown in front of a train and tears half the killers throat off. now maybe I am being a bit dumb here but half of his neck is now missing however he still manages to make his screechy noises? This guy is hardcore and must have 2 sets of vocal chords... He must of anticipated this very move and decided during his many surgeries to have a second set of vocal chords transplanted in this foot! Anyway the film ends with Kate sitting in the subway station.
Well the entire film was about as entertaining.... In fact forget it, it wasn't entertaining. Granted I have seen a lot worse but it was't worth the time I had to waste to watch it. The effects in the film were bang on I thought but blood flying all over the place doesn't make a film worth watching. There just wasn't enough in there to make it interesting, apart from the setting there was no difference between this film and any other slasher movie. I wouldn't say don't watch this film, but just don't expect it to be a classic, it's far from it.
I'd give this movie a.. Nothing new at all/10
