In the film, a team of Asians place a bomb on a high-speed train operating between London and Glasgow. The train will explode if it slows below a certain speed; unless a ransom is paid.
An unofficial adaptation of the 1975 Japanese film The Bullet Train, the film was released on 27 April 2012 and received mixed reviews, with praise for the premise and action sequences, and criticism for the writing. It emerged as a box-office bomb.
