Storyline

The Girl on the Train is the story of Rachel Watson's life post-divorce. Every day, she takes the train in to work in New York, and every day the train passes by her old house. The house she lived in with her husband, who still lives there, with his new wife and child. As she attempts to not focus on her pain, she starts watching a couple who live a few houses down -- Megan and Scott Hipwell. She creates a wonderful dream life for them in her head, about how they are a perfect happy family. And then one day, as the train passes, she sees something shocking, filling her with rage. The next day, she wakes up with a horrible hangover, various wounds and bruises, and no memory of the night before. She has only a feeling: something bad happened. Then come the TV reports: Megan Hipwell is missing. Rachel becomes invested in the case and trying to find out what happened to Megan, where she is, and what exactly she herself was up to that same night Megan went missing.

dull
11 October 2016 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

The Girl on the Train boasts a (mostly) intriguing performance by Emily Blunt; she commits to this character as what appears at first to be a 'drunk mess' and is one of three major woman characters in this story of deception and murder. But the plot is simply dumb, and more than that is deathly dull. This would barely pass muster as an episode of Law & Order (or for that latter obviously Lifetime), and despite the appearance of the occasionally dependable Justin Theroux (remember him in Mulholland Drive?) the cast doesn't bring anything to the threadbare characters. The rest of what is essentially a soulless Lifetime movie has nothing to offer. What a lump of a 'thriller'. Even a scene like the one woman describing a tragic incident with her infant that IS dramatically potent gets lost in the slop that is this plot and story and... What characters to even speak of? Forget about Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train made me pine for€ *What Lies Beneath*!
