London, midnight, on a cold evening. Unable to find a taxi, Kate (Franka Potente) heads for the Underground. She takes a seat away from the crowd of late-night revellers and waits for the last train. Before long she drifts off to sleep… and wakes to find everyone gone. She momentarily panics until another train pulls in. She boards, unnerved that she's the only passenger, but relieved at last to be on her way. Halfway through the tunnel the train jerks to a violent halt. The lights shut off and the train is plunged into darkness. Kate screams… she is trapped, in the dark… and she is not alone… her nightmare has only just begun. (Pathé Distribution UK)

Franka Potente de cabelo amarelo com um vestido amarelo com flores, corre pelos túneis do metro de Londres, e em vez de namorar George Clooney, que ela pretendia, namora um mutante humano horrivelmente deformado, divertindo-se a violar mulheres numa cadeira ginecológica com um machete grande e afiado. Christopher Smith não consegue criar sequer uma pitada da angustiante atmosfera de ambiente criada por John Landis em poucos minutos do seu Um Lobisomem Americano em Londres (1981); e as primeiras emoções do espetador vêm apenas com o início da repugnância e brutalidade. Portanto, um caso triste semelhante ao do novo Massacre no Texas, em que pelo menos não tivemos de esperar os dois primeiros terços do filme por estas emoções «recompensadoras» do espetador.

I don’t understand the aversion towards this film, I think it’s a fairly good, little horror flick. But I have a weak spot for stories set in underground spaces, so it’s possible that it doesn’t work on other people. For me 70%

At first nothing happens and the movie’s head is kept above water only thanks to the “story’s" appealing atmosphere, then we comes one really snappy line, but nothing else happens. Then the fount of all evil comes on the scene and... and nothing happens again, then at last some unintentionally funny scenes come along and then, mercifully, it’s the end. The picture isn’t saved by having Franka Potente in it or by having a social lesson at the end ,-) One of those movies that show that even a movie lasting less than ninety minutes can be far too long.

A pretty average horror film that looked pretty stupid at the beginning, got a bit better later, but at the end it fell into stupidity again. I have to admit that the scene where Franka Potente meets the mutant for the first time, and then when the mutant played doctor... well, that was pretty awesome.

Metro is a British-German production that plays it safe, covering familiar ground. It is a predictable horror movie the viewer has seen many times before. Moments of suspense are interspersed with moments of relative boredom. Here and there, someone dies horribly, and then it just ends.
