good, if you buy into it all.

When mom makes a scene and gets carted off to jail, her daughters need money to pay the bills. Including mom's bail money. So they hatch a plan to rob a train... which happens to run through their yard. They go through with it, and if we buy into some pretty unlikely events, and...they pull it off! While discussing self esteem issues. It's mostly silly, but there are some funny bits. The guidance counselor who just wants to escape this town. The high school students will do just anything to get into a college. The beauty contestants who trip each other to win. Life in a small town. It's silly, but not bad. Directed by sidney freeland. Story by shelby farrell. Stick around for a fun scene about halfway through the closing credits.

A movie to reflect on

A combination of drama and teen adventure. It is about sisters who steal trains when their mother suffers a crisis and is imprisoned. An interesting movie. Current. How far would you be able to go to support and save your family? It is a moral premise that you question throughout the film, they steal to eat and stay together. Is it justifiable? Entertaining. Quality. With pleasant and funny moments. Addresses the importance of family and support.

Great Independent Film, With Fun Characters!

It's good to show films of struggles, and situations people face. But it's also a fun comedy, with really great young actors, and charming characters. I enjoyed this film a lot.

Deidra is the oldest sibling, her Mum has just been thrown in jail, bills are mounting up, and she wants to take care of her siblings, and not have them taken into foster care. She's a bright young girl, who has the potential to go to college, but what does she have to do to keep her family together.

I think it manages to raise issues well, but still keep things fun. It was a great watch.

fun and full of heart

Deidra & Laney Rob a Train is one heart-warming, entertaining film that one needs from time to time. I found myself rooting for the lead characters all the way.

The film is something of a feel- good vibe where not everything will feel plausible, but it's very easy to forgive because by then you'll be heavily invested in the characters. And the feel-good vibe also does not mean there aren't heavier issues handled with great care and heart. I was definitely tearing up in one scene. Ashleigh Murray is amazing as Deidra, the future Valedictorian who's left to take care of her sister and brother while their mom is in jail. She's very charismatic and was more than capable of carrying the film. I hope to see her in more good roles like this one. Rachel Crow, Danielle Nicolet and Sasheer Zamata were also such pleasures to watch in their respective roles. Missi Pyle also deserves a mention!

Sort of evens out...

My 5 might be a tad generous. But the film boasts some likable characters played well by the principals. But the premise? The script? All shot through with more plot holes than can be listed here. Some of the scenes are downright impossible, let alone believable. And the film is too long. The beauty pageant angle could have been jettisoned. Would have cut ten minutes off the run time and tightened up the film considerably.

Not a great film. Not even a good one. But, as I noted, the main characters are intriguing and even ingratiating. They make the film watchable.

Errores
When Deidra and Laney rob their first train, they see a police unit stopped at the train crossing as they slowly roll by it. To hide, Laney jumps off the side of the flatcar and Deidra opens the door and gets into the container. The officer sees the light from their flashlight on the side of the container and gets on board the (now stopped) train to investigate. The officer subsequently shines his light on Laney, who is camouflaged among some trackside debris, and then notices the container latch is open, with the security band obviously missing. The officer simply closes and latches the container before getting off of the train. No law enforcement officer who had gotten on board the train to specifically investigate possible criminal activity in this situation would simply just close the latch without opening it to investigate if there were someone inside and stealing from it, which was the reason he got on board in the first place.
