**Money Train loses interest while trying to figure out what it wants to be.** Money Train is a movie with an identity crisis. Is it a buddy cop movie? Crime drama? Serial killer char? Heist film? Romance piece? Well, Money Train tries to be all those things in less than 2 hours, making for a disjointed mess with inconsistent pacing and barely any story to follow. Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes are the good guys of the story, but they ultimately rob a train and cause millions of dollars of damage, and the audience is supposed to laugh it off because their boss is a jerk. Doesn’t work. With a cast including Wesley Snipes, Woody Harrelson, and Jennifer Lopez, I thought Money Train had to be at least mildly entertaining (and it did have fun moments), but the numerous stories and tones left everything too underdeveloped to enjoy and an ending that is more abrupt than satisfying.
