THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN | 10.07.16 | Universal | final gross ● 75.40 M

[Hatebox]

I assume, reading the reviews, that they didn't change the ending — which was almost universally regarded as a letdown in the book.

[Frozen]

The Wrap doesn't like it that much. 

 

Where will this end up?

[John Marston]

43% rotten

Yes the ending sucks. But how would they have changed it?

mine had a score on the RT homepage of 50% then when I went to the movie's specific page, the score disappeared everywhere.  But it says 5 fresh, 5 rotten right now so that is 50% even if it says no score yet

lots of 3/5 that will translate to fresh.

Thanks. I hope it can get past 60%.

no problem.  Funny, now it's showing the score again   it's still at 50%, but at least it's showing the number now

"This dopey thriller boasts plenty of potentially juicy plot points but is consistently undermined by an earnest execution that doesn't understand what a convoluted hoot it has on its hands."

 

For some reason this RT line made me chuckle.

[Frozen]

Time likes it. 

 

And it's up to 55% now.

Hm, what are the odds this gets Blunt her first Oscar nomination?

Zero. Sorry Emily, but you're gonna remain Oscar-nomless another year.

 

Disappointed but can't say I'm overly shocked by the mixed reviews. Still looking forward to seeing it on Friday.

[Frozen]

The Upcoming likes it. The Hollywood News have it 3/5. I think this could end up fresh but just barely.

But what if the film does really well this weekend?

It won't happen. The fifth spot this year is very competitive.

[TalismanRing]

Despite the occasional shot of piss-soaked knickers, there's something a bit too tasteful about 'The Girl on the Train'.  -- Time Out (3/5)

 

Now that's a blurb that really makes this film sound enticing.

If it continues on with the majority of positive reviews at 3/5 it will have a hard time staying fresh or retaining 6.0 avg

Best Actress is unusually competitive this year and given the reviews, I doubt she would've happened in any year for this movie.

Pike barely got a nomination for Gone Girl, and that was a film that was widely despised by the academy. Blunt likely has no chance of a nom, even if Girl On The Train does well.
