Shuttle

Shuttle was a good thrille/horror. But one that was very crushing especailly getting to the climax of the movie. This film follows two woman mel, and jules played by peyton list and cameron goodman. They have just got off a flight and a mysterious shuttle driver offers them a lift for half the price of the other one. They jump on as well as two men that were eyeing them up. And a man with a briefcase. You know things are going to go well and so they end up in danger. There is a lot of suspense throughout and good acting, especially on peyton lists part. Overall shuttle is a good but brutal movie that makes you relize not everyhting can turn out happy.

On the surface, 'Shuttle' looks like it's going to be one of those slightly laughable high-concept movies like 'P2' - kids get on the wrong airport shuttle bus and all hell breaks loose. You'd be forgiven for expecting little more than incompetently handled third-rate genre clichés. This is one of those rare instances when you'd be wrong. Defying all the odds, writer/director Edward Anderson manages to craft a tightly structured thriller with a genuine sense of mounting dread and performances well above the norm for straight-to-DVD fodder. He's able to create some sequences of real tension and displays more talent and understanding of the mechanics of suspense than many more experienced directors. I, for one, found the story involving, the protagonists likable, and enough unexpected reveals to keep me guessing 'till the very end as to the true nature of the crime being perpetrated. All in all, 'Shuttle' is a solid horror-thriller that chooses suspense over violence, and does so admirably well for such an inexperienced director. I've no idea what Anderson's been doing in the three years since making this movie, but I hope his evident talents won't go ignored much longer.

If you have seen Taken, then you will notice the similarity of the idea of trafficking. I know that both movies were released in 2008 but I don't know which one came first. However, the similarity in here is only in that point and other than that both movies are different and not to be compared in anyway. I loved both though Taken is much much more better but this doesn't make shuttle a bad movie.

Shuttle has good things about it in terms of getting you wondering what the bus driver will end up doing with the girls. It's not that you don't guess why he kidnapped them but you will wonder what will happen.

Overall, the movie does have bunch of entertaining elements in the plot and though the reviewers probably didn't like the characters, I did like them and they were convincing in some parts. One of the reviewers mentioned the fact that the characters were so stupid and at some points could have easily escaped but this is not true. The other day I was sitting in the hospital waiting for my turn to get into the doctor's office and my laptop was with me. And then I read a sign about what to do if a fire starts and started wondering if a big fire flamed out in the whole place and the only way to save myself is to run fast, What would I do? Would I choose to forget about my heavy bag of laptop and CDs to save my life? and I found it really hard to leave my expensive things behind right away. Things have to really get worse for me to start considering throwing my things away. So this is what usually happens with movies when you find some actions stupid and you can't understand them or find the rationale behind them from the comfort of your seat at home. I find these things true and serve the plot and increase the tension.

Unbelievable, suspenseful, very well made.

The characters' actions-reactions are not credible and the narrative isn't either.

But it's still a good one. I would recommend it to friends. It's a good thriller.

But at times, it seems more like Halloween or these "supernatural" slashers, where the evil character keeps getting up despite being killed over and over and over again. In other words, the suspense is a bit overdone. Too much peanut butter on the slice of bread, trying to chew on it with a dry mouth, if you see what I mean.

But despite the exaggerations, it keeps you on the edge of your seat, so it gets the work done. A solid 6 in my book.

I have never even heard about this movie and I decided to give it a watch and Im sure glad I did. The acting is not bad and the storyline is believable. Not what I thought it was going to be but still a good movie. Ignore what everyone says about the ending its one of the best parts. Its their opinion because they get sad.

This movie is about 2 friends at the airport on their way back from Mexico. They meet two guys at the airport and they decide to spend sometime together. They catch a shuttle bus to take them into town but the shuttle does not take them to town. The driver takes them on a detour...

This movie was good. It was thrilling and very believable. New original story that has not been done before.
