Movies & TV

An eccentric parade of comedy, "Stop! That! Train!" is a laugh riot from start to finish. Inspired by movie parodies, like "Airplane!", and popular films like "Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion" and "Mean Girls", this movie led by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato dives deep into the iconic world of RuPaul’s Drag Race. The film features memorable performances by alumni from the long-running reality show, including Ginger Minj and Jujubee, who play the documentary's stars, Tess and DeeDee. Alongside talented comedy recruits, the pair keeps the audience engaged and entertained in a world where anything can happen.

Ginger Minj and Jujubee bring an undeniable charm to their roles as best friends who work at a budget travel service Stank Rail. Their dreams of experiencing the luxurious side of America's travel scene finally come true when they are called upon to serve as stewards on the glamorous Glamazonian Express train. However, their happiness is short-lived as the mean girls of the first class, led by Brooke Lynn Hytes' character Amber, relegate them to economy class.

Amid the humor and chaos, a love story buds between DeeDee and assistant conductor Cal, portrayed by Brian Jordan Alvarez. More humor ensues as Cal is unwittingly idolized in a risqué niche periodical. The film also features an eccentric role for Chris Parnell, who channels Leslie Nielsen as the train’s conductor. His character's misadventures serve as a segue into discussions about substance abuse and marital woes.

The movie, packed with LGBTQ+ humor and gags, reaches its crescendo when the train enters a catastrophic event dubbed "Stormaganza", and gets hijacked by a rogue scorpion. Back in Washington, President Judy Gagwell, played fabulously by RuPaul, learns about the crisis and falls into a PR disaster.

As the situation deteriorates, Tess and DeeDee step up to save the day. This comedically tweaked disaster movie also features cameos from popular personalities like Latrice Royale, Sarah Michelle Geller, and Lisa Rinna. With the extended cameos adding to the hilarious chaos, the movie depicts an extravagant world of comedy and drag, brimming with non-stop laughter, chaos, and unending amusement for the audience. It's not just an action-comedy, but also a brilliant showcase of friendship and unity.
