    Excellent story for us all to see.

    I was very impressed with this film. Rel Dowdell is indeed an excellent story teller. This is a movie that I recommend for everyone to go see. The casting process for the characters were carefully selected. I am looking forward to seeing more of his work in the future. No doubt in my mind that this is just the beginning of a rewarding future for this film-maker.

    Train Ride is an excellent movie that brought tears to my eyes.

    Rel Dowdell is by far, one of the most talented and gifted writer/director in the industry today. His movie (Train Ride) was very well written and casted some of the most talented actors around. The subject matter in the movie was something that really needed to be discussed so that unsuspecting and innocent people are aware of the damage that can result from drug usage. The movie deals with a very serious subject matter but you also get a few laughs in between the tears. I am very proud of this very insightful, young and creative writer/director.

    Wonderful exciting drama

    Train Ride was a great movie with an exceptional performance from Woos Harris. His role was so realistic. The performance from rapper/actress MC Lyte was exceptional as well. The script was creative and the execution of the actors was just perfect. Rel Dowdell is a director with a future, we need more movies like this. Well written, acted and put together Train Ride is the kind of movie that many young people can relate to. I found myself reaching back to college after viewing this film.

    Extraordinary film

    A truly extraordinary film, writer/director Rell Dowdell and his cast did an excellent job of showing us that communication is something we lack in today's society. Societies where families are in search of the American Dream shuffle their sons and daughters off to be raised by everyone but their parents.

    Rell Dowdell is by far, one of the most talented and gifted writers/directors in the industry today. His film (Train Ride ) definitely will catch the hearts and minds of everyone who sees this film.

    A Must See!!!

    Rel Dowdell has taken a serious topic of date rape and found a way to reach a variety of audiences (students, parents, and teachers) in his riveting movie, Train Ride. The story line and the acting in this movie were excellent. Viewers will feel a spectrum of emotions from laughter, anger, and suspense.

    I just can't wait to see what else this talented and up and coming director has in store for the world to view.
