Derailed

About This Movie

Derailed (2016) gives off this gritty, raw vibe that really pulls you into the turmoil these guys find themselves in. The pacing feels a bit erratic, mirroring the theme of lives going off the rails, which I kind of appreciate. It’s not polished, but there’s a certain charm to its rough edges. The performances, while not always top-tier, have a sincerity that draws you in, especially when they’re fighting tooth and nail to protect what matters most. The action scenes have a practical feel to them, not overly reliant on CGI, which adds to that grounded atmosphere. It’s a film that explores desperation and loyalty, and even if it doesn’t hit every mark, it carries an intensity that lingers.
