Jon Voight always plays such a great psycho. The nihilism and viciousness of his character make this movie as engaging as it is. It's otherwise an entertaining action/thriller, with some great, intense sequences.

What a dumb film. The characters are awful and the plot is just stupid, goes really over the top and gets kinda pretentious, especially the ending. It even ends with flowery church music and a Shakespeare quote. Is it suppose to be a joke or something? Directed by a Russian, I think his only english film, and written by a strange group including Akira Kurosawa. Bizarre.

How "Runaway Train" bombed at the box office in December, 1985, I'll never know because it's the perfect blend of blockbuster thrills and weighty subtext.

The story involves Manny (Jon Voight), a notorious prison hero, who escapes a maximum security prison in the frozen waste More

Really solid action-thriller and a testament that a bulk takes place on a train. Great performances from Jon Voight and Eric Roberts, not to mention John P. Ryan as the d-bag warden. Had heard of this film but never sat down to watch, glad I did. **3.75/5**
