Movie Info & Cast
Synopsis
In the early evening of August 21, 2015, the world watched in stunned silence as the media reported a thwarted terrorist attack on Thalys train #9364 bound for Paris--an attempt prevented by three courageous young Americans traveling through Europe. The film follows the course of the friends' lives, from the struggles of childhood through finding their footing in life, to the series of unlikely events leading up to the attack. Throughout the harrowing ordeal, their friendship never wavers, making it their greatest weapon and allowing them to save the lives of the more than 500 passengers on board.

like Tommy Wiseau made an action movie
David SimsJul 18, 2018I'm not sure how I feel about the entirety of this movie. What I am sure about is the opening moments, and the accuracy of its portrait of three young boys growing up in a Christian household in America. I know this because it was my life. There are certain expectations of…
Willow MaclayFeb 17, 2018at this point i think its safe to assume clint eastwood shares "how many likes for our troops?!🇺🇸🇺🇸🤔👍" posts on his facebook and bases all his movies off them

Should have been 15 to 17 minutes long.
Kyle DonovanFeb 9, 2018Kiarostami circa 1990....American style I think I liked it but I have absolutely no idea what to make of this movie Eastwood, at the tender age of 87, accidentally discovers modernism
Neil BahadurNov 19, 2018How can Americans relate to Europe? When you grow up in the historyless, cultureless suburbs, how can you relate to a place as old as Venice in any sort of meaningful way? The 15:17 to Paris is hyper-aware of the banality of tourism; Anthony Sadler's love of the selfie…

Manifest destiny as updated to 21st century. The ultimate reward is your own movie (it is an amazing coincidence that the guys are from Sacramento as this really is Lady Bird’s Republican cousin). Between American exceptionalism and a dedication to the most banal actions.…
Filipe FurtadoFeb 7, 2018I don't think this aside will make my review, but I wanted to include it: During the attack sequence, Skarlatos wears a Bayern Munich jersey. In a couple of shots, you can clearly see that is a #25 Thomas Muller jersey. (I cannot say for sure whether the Bayern jersey…
NateFeb 13, 2018For 40 minutes I thought this was terrible, but the second it turned into a fly-on-the-wall patience-tester about three boring guys travelling around Europe, I was in. Only Clint could get away with this. Clint is an ancient man with nothing left to prove, trying to…

A great message and a unique way to tell the story. Having the real-life heroes play themselves was what made this such a cool movie
Kira Creasman dislikedThe 15:17 to ParisThe worst movie that was ever made. I mean so bad I could not stop watching it cause I had faith it would get better and it in fact did not get better. So unbelievably bad. Could not rate low enough.
Brent dislikedThe 15:17 to Parisi feel really bad because the actual heroes are the actors in this movie. but as a movie it feels like almost entirely filler

Colin Feeney dislikedThe 15:17 to ParisI appreciate what the tried to do for authenticity but actors are professionals for a reason
Eye Cinc dislikedThe 15:17 to ParisThis should be a short film, without a doubt this is the worst movie of Clint Eastwood.
- Rebeca Valenzuela dislikedThe 15:17 to Paris
Trailer was so misleading. Movie itself was the worst movie I’ve ever seen.
Giacomo is "meh" onThe 15:17 to ParisI'd say "ok" but the movie goes around it a lot, maybe a bit too much
Nick dislikedThe 15:17 to ParisThis movie just felt weird. The acting seemed way off. Terrible

Don’t wast your money.
JRjohn ricciA bit too much background made it slow moving until the last 20 minutes
EHEvan HenryTerrible. I’d never see it again. What a waste of money.
Metacritic
Feb 7, 2018
Mr. Eastwood, who has long favored a lean, functional directing style, practices an economy here that makes some of his earlier movies look positively baroque. He almost seems to be testing the limits of minimalism, seeing how much artifice he can strip away and still achieve some kind of dramatic impact.

Eastwood's main achievement here lies in trusting his hunch that the young men could handle playing themselves onscreen, with an acceptable naturalness and without self-consciousness. This they do, without a false note.
Todd McCarthy

The oddity of the movie — and this is baked into the way Eastwood conceived it, sticking to the facts and not over-hyping anything — is that this vision of real-life heroism is so much less charged than the Hollywood version might be that it often feels as if a dramatic spark plug is missing.
