The film follows Rachel, played by Emily Blunt,
through a complicated maze of different narrators, flashbacks and various
points of views. Rachel rides the train everyday past the house where she used
to live with her husband, who now lives there with his new wife and child. She
starts to watch a couple who lives a few houses down (Megan and Scott), making
up a happy story for them. When Megan goes missing and Rachel is covered in
bruises with no memory of the night before, she becomes very invested in the
case.

I am a fan of Emily Blunt, and she did as best she
could with this weeping and plaintive role. I was significantly underwhelmed by
the overall production of the film. Additionally, the move to change the
setting to New York rather than the original London takes away part of its
character.

I would recommend sticking to the book in future.
