The studio must have been clamouring for more Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes pictures after White Men Can’t Jump (1992), because there teamed up here again as two transit cops (who are also brothers) that decide to rob the titular vehicle.
It’s got all the expected beats, but none of the urgency of the heavy hitters. Money Train plays like a 70s era hang out movie lazily re-written into a 90s action blockbuster. I had never seen it on any X-Mas Movie Lists before, and while it was a film I knew by name (having been battered by trailers during its release), I had never actually sat down and watched. “This takes place on Christmas?” I whispered excitedly under my breath. My eyes lit up when I saw Money Train on the shelf of Bay Street Video’s Christmas section.
