Unlikely to win any awards but a decent, if run-of-the mill, heist plot. Clever use of weather at times. Sometimes over-the-top.

Mostly poor. <em>'The Hurricane Heist'</em> is an OK disaster film but is majorly let down by the up and down special effects and largely plain acting. I did enjoy the ending, which is very <em>'The Fast and the Furious'</em>-esque - little surprise to learn that Rob Cohen directs both. Cast-wise it's underwhelming. Maggie Grace (Casey) is the standout, it's cool to see her in something other than <em>'Taken'</em>. Toby Kebbell (Will) is the best of the rest, though he and the others are pretty dull. Better onscreen talent needed. The overall story is alright, even with its clunky twists. The effects, as noted, are lame for the majority but one or two scenes look decent. It could've been a lot worse, the third act certainly improves my feelings towards this film.

The Kiss in the Tunnel1899-11-30Produced and directed by George Albert Smith, the film shows a couple sharing a brief kiss as their train passes through a tunnel. The Kiss in the Tunnel is said to mark the beginnings of narrative editing. It is in fact, two films in one, hence the 2 min length. Firstly, the G.A. Smith film here for the central cheeky scene in the carriage. The train view footage however is Cecil Hepworth's work, entitled 'View From An Engine Front - Shilla Mill Tunnel', edited into two halves in order to provide a visual narrative of the train entering the tunnel before the kiss and then leaving afterwards. More information about the filming of the phantom train ride can be found searching for the Hepworth film separately.More...
