Fantastic movie if... SPOILERS
...you watch it with no prior knowledge of the plot. I just turned on my TV and saw the opening credits.
"Derailed starring Clive Owen. Cool! That's all I need to know."
Of course I expected something about a train accident. I expected Clive Owen playing a hard-case and Jennifer Aniston playing a sweet girl like they usually do. What a great way to through people off. Perfect choice of actors. I thought I had the movie figured out so many times but I was all wrong. Agreed, the movie had it's flaws and I'm sure I wouldn't have liked it as much had I known the premise.
Maybe it's just that being blissfully ignorant is the best way to watch a movie.
I believe this is how every movie should be watched. No trailers, no plot summaries. Just you and the movie.
You're going to die screaming... and I'm going to watch. Am I telling the truth?
