What a wreckage The Wrecker wrecked!!! A 1929 derailing train looks pretty much the same as it does in 2013. Destructive and devastating! And here they serve us with several spectacular train wrecks! That's the movie's main selling point, but the suspense plot works well too. Plus it got the elegant Benita Hume joining in on the action! So yeah, a enjoyable spectacle!
