The Girl on the Train (2016)

After the commercial and critical success of Ridley Scott’s Gone Girl (2014), producers were quick to churn out another flick about a girl in trouble. Enter The Girl on the Train (2016), not to be confused with the foreign flicks The Girl on a Motorcycle (1968) and Girl on a Bicycle (2013). Based on the same-named book by Paula Hawkins, this psychological thriller follows a recovering alcoholic named Rachel (Emily Blunt) whose husband Tom (Justin Theroux) divorced her to wed real-estate agent Anna (Rebecca Ferguson). As such, Rachel spends her empty days aimlessly riding a train — and spying on her neighbors Megan (Haley Bennett) and Scott (Luke Evans) Hipwell as they do all sorts of salacious things. But when Rachel sees something unexpected in their house, she gets off at Megan’s stop, only to learn the woman has gone missing. Now, Rachel is implicated in Megan’s disappearance. Will she be able to convince Detective Riley (Allison Janney) of her innocence? Or will the “Man in the Suit” (Darren Goldstein) testify against her? Most important, will we get to see some of the actors flash their flesh? Luckily, the answer to the latter question is “Yes!” Mr. Evans steams up the lens as he bares his back and buns while doing a woman in a steamy shower scene. If that’s not arousing enough, Mr. Theroux exposes his raw rump during an outdoor hump by a tree stump. Needless to say, when you witness his buns bouncing in the woods, you’ll feel wood!
