<p dir="auto">This stinker had so many plot holes that it smelled like swiss cheese by the time we were through with it that's for sure.</p>
<ol>
<li>Why would a guy with a knife in his head look at the place where he hid his money? DUH!</li>
<li>How could a police officer who took an oath be involved with robbers? Kind of gives a new spin on the famous term "cops and robbers" don't it? DUH!</li>
<li>How could an upstanding Christian girl choose to be a smoker and risk damaging the temple that is her body, given to her by God? DUH!</li>
<li>Furthermore, why would a nice Christian girl even attempt to fornicate with an obvious Catholic? DUH!</li>
<li>Finally, how could a nice Christian girl murder someone even though he was obviously a Catholic and probably deserved it? DUH!</li>
<li>How could a smart upstanding young Christian man possibly miss a train in the middle of the Antarctic? DUH!</li>
<li>How could a Spanish Catholic man smuggle obvious containers of illegal hard drugs over the Japanese border without raising any suspicion? DUH!</li>
<li>Why would the evil Catholic man hide all his money on a dead body instead of in the good Christian girl's suitcase like he did with the toy animals? DUH!</li>
<li>Why would the robbers steal a train just because they wanted to harass and possibly torture the nice American Christian couple? DUH!</li>
<li>How could a girl who had her legs cut off suddenly walk to the middle of nowhere to look for the money and the drugs? DOUBLE DUH!<br />
I could go on and on about this movie's shortcomings. The wife and I both agree that this movie put the typical Hollywood negative spin on Christians. For that I give it a failing grade. Also, the plot holes were so numerous that I often found myself gasping for air! Suffice it to say that this is not a good movie at all. F-!</li>

Many Christians are nutcases, and it kind of ruins it for the rest of us real Christians.</p>

<p dir="auto">Dear Mister steeler33. It is so typical of amoral atheists to label all Christians as nutcases. That is very unfair. Just because Woody Harrelson enjoyed trains and good old fashioned religion, it does not mean he is a nutcase. His wife on the other hand who enjoyed premarital sex and mixed marriages is truly the nutcase in this equation. Nevertheless, this is a forum about movies so perhaps rather than attempt to display your lack of morality as intelligence, please stick to a scientific analysis on the merits of this particular film. Thank you sir.</p>

<p dir="auto">Im really late on this one and I didn't read all the comments, but I kind of laughed about the orignial poster and how a lot of other people questioning Woody Harrilson in this.  Woody plays a clueless christian nutcase in this movie, and the OP is obviously one of these christian nutcases.<br />
I thought the two tied in nicely.</p>

I have to believe this is a joke and you just posted this to create some sort of controversy for simple self-amusing reasons.<br />
In case you didn't and really mean all this boloneyit's people like you who give "Christians" a bad rap. Get off your "I'm better than you" soap box and realize you're just a sinner, like anybody else.<br />
Oh, and yes. Please, open your geography book and search for Siberia. Siberia is the Northern region of Russia. Close to the North pole.<br />
"The Antartic" as you refer to it, is the South Pole. Yup, the other end of the planet DUH!</p>

<p dir="auto">Man, if you ever wondered about Christians and especially the fanatical missionaries and other advanced zealots, you will wonder no more. This is one scary movie, to think that Christians committing at least nine out of the ten deslistes sins come out as the moral winners in this piece.<br />
Everyone suspects that America is the world's most corrupt country, with a corrupt police force in big cities. Yet here, the Americans are the singing angeles and the Russkies, well, the bad ones. How original!<br />
Too bad that this was a Spanish movie trying to pass itself off as an Aemrican one. It failed, big time.</p>

<p dir="auto">Excuse me Mister jabberttp Sir. I don't think your joke that pokes fun at hearing impaired people is funny at all and is in fact, somewhat discriminatory. Furthermore, just because you do not share the same perception of this film as most people, it is not polite to refer to others as "silly" or worse yet as "prostitutes". A little decorum please Sir. DUH!</p>

<p dir="auto">Wow. It still amazes me how many people just cannot seem to grasp the concept of sarcasm.<br />
Yes, on IMDb I notice lots of folks don't seem to get sarcasm.  I personally found the OP's post a bit silly, not uproariously funny or anything.<br />
As when did Catholics stop being Christian?  We believe in Christ, too - so does that not make us Christian, too?<br />
Everything else he said was silly, too.<br />
Reminds me of a joke.  A street walker comes into a convent.  One old nun whispers to the other, "she's a prostitute".  The other nun sounds upset replying, "What?"<br />
The first nun repeats (a bit louder), "I said she's a prostitute!"  The nun a bit hard of hearing calms down immediately, replying, "Oh, that's okay.  For a moment I thought you said 'she's a protestant!'".  lol</p>

So you are allowed to speak your opinions but others are not. That is supposed to be freedom of speach<br />
If people think your opinions are stupid they are free to say so.<br />
You must be living very isolated by the world if you think christians doesn<code>t sin a lot. There are even priests who are raping children and you are talking about smoking! Grow up! Haven</code>t you noticed that most of the italian mafiaguys are christians who both kill, smoke, drink and curse a lot.<br />

We both Christians, we were never offended by this movie, we both liked it a lot.  I know some folks who are missionaries.they are not saints.they mess up like anyone.we're human..but what is cool is that they are willing to share their faith and God's love..Woody Harrelson did a wonderful job portraying a man who loved God, his church, and his ministry.and of course trains.I gave this movie 9 stars!!<br />
An atheist cannot guard his faith too carefully. Dangers lie in wait for him on every side.</p>

<p dir="auto">The TC fails. Not all Christians are Saints, and not all Christians are simple-minded idiots. I'm a Baptist, and I also admit I'm no Saint. That basically just takes your whole post and makes it null n' void. As for the plot and such, well. I don't even think the directors/writers cared too much. A lot of directors and writers will just take a great movie that makes you think, and add tons of small things just to either piss you off or make you over-analyze it.</p>
