bkoganbing Had Night Train To Kathmandu been made 40 years earlier this would have been a perfect film for Sabu. Sabu also would have had first billing in the credits as well instead of villain Pernell Roberts. Part Sabu adventure, part Lost Horizon, part Brigadoon, Night Train To Kathmandu has American visiting professor Robert Stoeckle taking his family to Kathmandu, Nepal's capital to teach at their university, the family consists of wife Jan Pesano also a professor and children Milla Jovovich and Trevor Eyster. The family meets up with young Eddie Castrodad who kind of attaches himself to the family to get where he has to go.Which is a mythical Brigadoon like city who we would say exists in another dimension. But every so often the ruler of the city has to venture forth into our world, but make sure to go back lest some dire consequences occur. What they are I won't tell, but even the scholars aren't quite sure. It's all part of Nepalese mythology. Pernell Roberts also a visiting professor publicly scoffs, but actually thinks it's real and he's determined to go there.So is young Milla Jovovich who likes what she sees in the boy who looks like a beggar, but says he's a prince. This is a Sabu plot if I ever heard one.But I'm not scoffing. Night Train To Kathmandu is a nice family style adventure. If your kids see this one, put a copy of Lost Horizon in their hands.You may inspire folks to see if there is a Shangri-La.
zackfriend The movie would be better without the acting and 'plot,' but the photography was spectacular. absolutely terribly bad. Thankfully it's not too long - but the plot which is supposed to be mysterious is weak, with mediocre acting - not convincing in the least bit. The incredible scenery is the only redeeming feature of this movie. probably the worst movie I have EVER seen - cheesy plot turns and a predictably boring romance make this movie corny and tacky. not worth an hour of anyone's time ever. If you are really interested in Nepalese history and don't mind bad acting and no plot then this movie is great. otherwise. . . . I would rate this a 1 out of ten.
aurexii By far one of Milla Jovovich's best films.I first saw it when i was around 9 or 10 and watched it over and over.It has pretty much everything in it, adventure, romance, drama,etc..This is the film that got me into foreign films even though I'm not sure how foreign it is, this is also one of the movies that got me into studying foreign cultures and customs. It's definitely a great story and something the whole family can watch together.The scenery is awesome, i love the way the movie plays out , you never know whats going to happen(well the first time you see it anyway :)).I don't wanna say too much more or i'll just end up spoiling it for you. You really need to see this movie to understand how great it is!
tomee I have just seen the movie on TV. I planned to watch it just to see how Milla looked when she was young. But Milla's eyes ain't the only thing worth seeing in that movie. The story is quite nice, and the Himalayas panoramas and Nepal views are really fantastic. "I'll miss Nepal everyday in my life, until I come back here..." :)
