5 out of 5 stars A Moving Film With a Message.......2006-12-28

El Ultimo Tren is a great film - a moving story, with excellent directing and acting. After viewing so much Hollywood thoroughfare, it was uplifting to see a film with a real human and social message, yet not delivered in a heavy-handed, ideological fashion. At one level, it is a deeply moving story of friends venturing on a risky journey together to protest the intended sale of a national treasure - a railroad engine, symbol of an entire nation's patrimony. The excellent script and acting capture the depths of human friendships, with the presence of the boy symbolizing the intergenerational dimension of the issues involved. At another level, it is about the struggle to maintain national identity in the face of a system where everything is put up for sale. I really cannot say too much in praise of this excellent film. My wife and I watched it twice in a row. After viewing it the first time, every other film we had rented seemed shallow and insigificant. Anyone looking for a good film, outside the mainstream of Hollywood thoroughfare, should see this excellent film. The acting is so much better than what one sees in Hollywood. This film is a true work of art. Five stars.

4 out of 5 stars A charming movie from Uruguay.......2004-09-26

In Spanish with subtitles, Ultimo Tren is about a group of older men who relive the ideals of their youth and try to save an old steam locomotive -- part of the country's national heritage -- from being shipped off to Hollywood. A great character piece about the relationships between the men. No blood, violence, or sex... just a good story.
