Summary

Sadly reflect upon your wasted life then bellow at an unforgiving sky about the failure of the American dream, cause we’re talking about Jaume Collet-Serra's The Commuter! Join us as we discuss what is a ludicrous romp through the pits of insanity (for Kat) and an unrelentingly grim meditation on the manipulation of the lower classes (for Jocelyn), touching on ludicrous action sequences, Liam Neeson’s overwhelming competency at everything (which, here, includes having the ability to kick a train apart), and try to figure out where exactly Vera Farmiga is located this whole time (our theory: the ceiling?)
