Edgar Ramirez: The Hot Shrink in The Girl on the Train

Edgar Ramirez is the third guy in the movie The Girl on the Train. He plays the shrink who sees the character of Haley Bennett.  He does his best to support Haley's character and is wrongfully implicated for her death.

Luke Evans Looks Delish and Dangerous in The Girl on the Train

Luke Evans plays one of the men in The Girl on the Train and he has some shirtless scenes which really heats up the movie, although the movie ends up in a dud.

Still, at 36, this guy has remained hot and delish.

Justin Theroux - Lean and Hot in The Girl on the Train

Justin Theroux just looks hot and ripped and lean in The Girl on the Train.  He has some sex scenes in the movie as he plays a very pivotal role.  He's already 43 years old yet he looks this great!  It's a goal I want to achieve for myself although I am older than him.

Rebecca Ferguson Plays It Blonde and Detached in The Girl on the Train

Rebecca Ferguson plays one of the three important female characters in the movie The Girl on the Train.  She plays the wife of Emily Blunt's character's ex-husband.  At first, she looks lucky for having been the new wife but you eventually learn of the scariness of her situation.  Her character slowly evolves from one of being detached into someone who finds out something very dangerous to her and her baby.

Haley Bennett: Blonde Bombshell in The Girl on the Train

I rarely feature ladies but once in a while, there are new actresses worth featuring here.  One of them is Haley Bennett and she plays a very crucial role in the movie The Girl on the Train.  She plays the role well with enough mystery and sexual tension.  I think her sex scenes are the reason why the movie got an R-16 rating here in the Philippines.

The Unsatisfying Denouement of 'The Girl on the Train'

One of the hardest skills for a film director to accomplish is to create suspense and dread, especially when there is a twist somewhere in the story.

It has worked great for movies like The Sixth Sense and Gone Girl, making you want to watch the movie again and again to find out if everything else in the rest of the movie is plausible, before the twist was revealed.

I haven't read Paula Hawkins' The Girl on the Train but now I may have to because being a woman writer, I'm sure she did not really mean to create three female characters and make them look so helpless and needy and foolish.

Emily Blunt though, is just superb in this movie, going through lengths to make herself look ugly and disgusting - and she has created a character that's just one sad sack.

However, even with the presence of a good cast, it really takes some skill to make a moviegoer be on the edge of his (or her) seat, especially as the story built up to the big reveal.

In the end, I just felt anger at the women characters, for allowing themselves to be played this way - considering that their characters are not entirely dumb, or helpless, or poor, or uneducated.
