Derailed

Pros: Good cast. Interesting plot.
Cons: Some disturbing scenes. Predictable and not very suspenseful. Lack of character development.

Thrillers can be very entertaining if they are done right. It can be hard to find one that is really good and suspenseful, especially since many trailers tend to give away too much of the plot of the movie they are for. I tend to like thrillers so I ...

Pros: chemistry, a lot of intrigue within the story, not easy to figure it out
Cons: some convoluted plot development

Derailed is a cleverly written movie that ends up doing a great job of using its main characters to the best of their abilities. As is not often the case anymore, the Director and the writers came up with a script that was geared towards the best ...

Pros: *Lots of intriguing twists and turns
Cons: *May be predictable to some
*Not very much character development

It’s a dreary Saturday morning and although there is housework to do, lunch and a movie sounded so much more interesting. I knew it wouldn’t be hard to convince my hubby to join in on my plans, the hardest thing would be agreeing on a movie. ...

Pros: A harsh film about consequences
Cons: Very predictable, some cheap tricks

Derailed is a wannabe Hitchcock style thriller staring Clive Owen (King Arthur) and Jennifer Aniston (TV’s Friends). I was enjoying the film up until the third act, then the rest was disappointing. My rating of this film dropped an ...

Pros: Widespread appeal, great cast. Witty moments now and then.
Cons: A few completely embarrassing exchanges. Doesn't really "stay with you" afterwards.

De-Railed is one of those films that is a jack of all trades but a master of none. It's got the fatal attraction thing going on over here, the criminal mastermind taunting a guy while gaining his family's trust over there, and there are more ...

Pros: Aniston, LaRoche, and Owen, plot
Cons: slow beginning

I am totally a fan of Jennifer Aniston even though I haven’t seen all of her movies, I really loved her in Friends. So when Derailed was released I knew I would see it, not only because of Aniston, but because of ...

Pros: killer ending, even with leaps of logic
Cons: boring, derivative, predictable, copycat beginning

I enjoyed watching Derailed the first time - or at least parts of it - when it was titled Fatal Attraction. I enjoyed it again when it was called The Spanish Prisoner. I wasn't a big fan of Punch Drunk Love, though Adam Sandler did make a more ...

Pros: Great acting and adventure. Jennifer Aniston.
Cons: Plot is predictable.

Derailed starring Jennifer Aniston and Clive Owen is a suspenseful drama from 2005 with excellent acting by the cast. We found it entertaining until the plot becomes obvious but it was still an enjoyable movie to watch and better than watching ...

Pros: Top actors were pretty good. Interesting plot twist adds interest to the film.
Cons: Plot holes that were hard to overlook. Predictability. Characters needed more depth.

The movie Derailed is based on a novel by James Siegel with the same title. As the old cliche goes, the book is better than the movie, but they made the movie anyway.  While this film has some redeeming moments, it seems to follow the same ...

Pros: Clive Owen, Jennifer Aniston, clever at times with its twists
Cons: a bit predictable and some flaws

What do you get when you mix the films "Fatal Attraction" with "The Game?" No, it's not a Michael Douglas retrospective. "Derailed" is a smart, yet sometimes predictable psychological thriller. Scribe, Stuart Beattie ("Collateral" & "Pirates of the ...

Pros: loved the ending, Cassel was awesome
Cons: most of the other actors were miscast making the whole thing feel disjointed

Charles Schine (Clive Owen) works very hard to bring money home for his family and be the perfect working husband for his wife (Addison Timlin). He loves his wife very much, but as sometimes happens his head was still turned by an attractive woman he met ...

Pros: Not really any, sorry Clive.
Cons: Boring, Aniston, boring, and just dumb.

So...if you're thinking about renting or buying derailed... You may change your mind after reading this review. Warning: the following review is for a movie that BLEW. Ok so first the plot: Charles is the main guy of the film. He is played by Clive ...

Pros: The twist at the end was huge! It was fantastic!
Cons: Clive Owen's character mumbled a bit.

A while before I saw this movie, I thought it would be one of those movies that was boring, and I was totally wrong. This movie brought me sitting on the edge of my chair, waiting for the next event, and I definitely loved the twist to the film at ...

Pros: Vincent Cassel, good twist, of moral value
Cons: 'over' cast, low intelligence level of lead character until finale

'Derailed' is a film that pokes at our moral of being faithful and what may come or not as a result from deviating from it. It is a bit of an interesting story as one can see how emotion can blind an individual and cause them to do the irrational before ...
