With TRANSSIBERIAN, Brad Anderson proves once again that he has an exceptional ability to craft a suspenseful thriller. Leaving behind the overtly Hitchockian style that made THE MACHINIST such an interesting formal exercise, Anderson this time shoots his film in colour and roots it firmly in the present. Roy (Woody Harrelson) and Jessie (Emily Mortimer) have just finished working with children overseas as part of a church project. Before flying back to the States, they decide to travel from Beijing to Moscow on the Trans-Siberian Express train, where they meet two fellow travellers, the handsome Carlos (Eduardo Noriega) and young Abby (Kate Mara). The couples bond, but gradually Jessie becomes worried that her new friends are involved in drug trafficking. At that point, the web has been spun, and when the intimidating Russian detective, Grinko (Ben Kingsley), arrives, Roy and Jessie become innocent targets in a dangerous chase.
Brad Anderson directs this tense, psychological thriller set on the Trans-Siberian railway, as an American couple become trapped in a deadly game between smugglers and the authorities. Deciding to travel back to Europe via the scenic route from Japan, American couple Roy (Woody Harrelson) and Jessie (Emily Mortimer) meet up with fellow travellers Carlos (Eduardo Noriega) and Abby (Kate Mara). Although outwardly friendly, Jessie's suspicions about the couple eventually rise to the surface, and when Roy returns to the train after being stranded, in the company of Russian narcotics cop Grinko (Ben Kingsley), her alarm bells start ringing. As the intrigue and tension build, with nothing seemingly what it appears, Roy and Jessie find themselves ensnared in murder and deception as they desperately try to escape their vacation from hell.
