Tony Scott is a director who knows how to make fast packed action movies. Like his brother Ridley (also an excellent director), Tony has a very unique style where he pushes the limit of film making and always uses new and different ways of editing his movies. He makes movies which may be lame in story, but makes up for the fact that they are fun, fast and definitely entertaining. You may not know the name, but I am sure you know the films. Top Gun, Beverely Hills Cop 2, Domino, Enemy of the State, Man on Fire and Spy Game just to name a few. The man sure knows what he is doing. And that brings me to his new movie, "Unstoppable." Unstoppable is Tony's new feature staring Academy Award winner Denzel Washington and up and comer Chris Pine (Star Trek). The story follows an engineer (Denzel Washington) and a young conductor as they join together to help stop a runaway train full of toxins heading right for a town where it could easily destroy if the train is not stopped. Sounds a bit lame, but with Tony on board the action will be fast and the direction will be exciting. Already receiving some of his best reviews in years, (I didn't care much for his last movie The Taking of Phelam 123 sorry Travolta you just didn't cut it for me in that movie) it might be the start of the excellent string of movies to come for this exciting filmmaker. Also staring Rosario Dawson, Kevin Dunn and Ethan Suplee Unstoppable hits theaters early next year.
