Firth, Kidman cannot stop ‘Railway Man’ from derailing

Written By Unknown on Kamis, 10 April 2014 | 10.46

Colin Firth plays a choo-choo lover and ex-World War II prisoner of war who finds his two great obsessions neatly joining in the trite, hokey message movie "The Railway Man."

In 1980 England, Firth plays a nerd who studies railway timetables, enjoys a late-in-life marriage to a nurse (Nicole Kidman, who is hardly in the picture) and learns that the Japanese soldier who tortured him in 1942 is now working as a tour guide — at the very same location (Bridge 277, the "Bridge on the River Kwai" in Thailand) where the two men first met.

The second half of this earnest, slow-paced picture (based on a true story) is taken up with endless flashback torture sequences and the long encounter between the two men in 1980, when the sole point of suspense is whether the Firth character will exact his revenge via torture. I think I'd rather have the waterboarding than the movie's bromides about how we're all victims and hate must end.
