Directed by Tony Scott and co-starring Chris Pine and Rosario Dawson, Unstoppable is about a runaway train carrying a cargo of toxic chemicals.
The film pits an engineer (played by Washington) and his conductor (played by Pine) in a race against time. They're chasing the runaway train in a separate locomotive and need to bring it under control before it derails on a curve and causes a toxic spill that will decimate a town.
The script loosely inspired by a true event that took place in Ohio in 2001.
This will also mark the fifth collaboration between Washington and Scott after working on Crimson Tide, Man on Fire, Deja Vu, and The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3.
20th Century Fox will release the film on November 10.
Today's Rewind Wednesday feature, The Last Boy Scout was recommended by a fellow blogger RemarkableFashion. It came on TVOne last night and I just couldn't help but showcase it on today.
The Last Boy Scout is a 1991 action film starring Bruce Willis as a former Secret Service agent, now working as a private detective, and Damon Wayans as a retired professional football player. The two join forces to solve the murder of Wayans' character’s girlfriend (played by the then-little known Halle Berry). The movie was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures and Geffen Pictures and directed by Tony Scott.
Bruce Willis stars as Joe Hallenbeck, who was once a top-of-the-line Secret Service agent but has since become an alcoholic, flea-bag detective. While performing the chores of a two-bit shamus, he discovers his wife Sarah (Chelsea Field) is having an affair with his best friend. Joe is hired to protect Cory (Halle Berry), a stripper who has been getting death threats; Joe begins to sober up when Cory is blown to smithereens. Cory's boyfriend, Jimmy Dix (Damon Wayans), was at one time a NFL football quarterback, but was thrown out of the game for gambling and addiction to Demerol. Smelling something fishy, Joe and Jimmy begin to investigate further and discover layers of corruption in professional football circles, leading up to Sheldon Marcone (Noble Willingham), a corrupt team owner who wants to pay off legislators to legalize gambling on pro football games.

This is one of those movies that makes you enjoy the action-team effort that it presents. Willis and Wayans do an excellent job of keeping us entertained and at the same time giving us some great action.
Now if there is a film-goer alive whose mouth didn't gape in amusement at this opening scene then I am truly shocked and amazed. Take a look for yourself:
