Stuck (2013)
In this vibrant pop musical, six strangers find themselves trapped on a New York City subway, where the journey becomes far more than just a commute. As the hours tick by, their lives intertwine in surprising ways, sparking connections, revelations, and transformations that none of them could have anticipated. Through music, chance encounters, and shared experiences, they discover the power of human connection in the most unlikely of places.
Stuck is a dark, quirky psychological thriller that takes an unusual premise—a woman accidentally hitting a homeless man with her car and leaving him trapped in her windshield—and turns it into a tense exploration of guilt, moral dilemmas, and the human capacity for cruelty. Mena Suvari gives a gripping performance as a woman spiraling out of control, while Stephen Rea brings depth to his role as the victim. The film is unsettling, with moments of shocking violence balanced by moments of reflection. It’s a thought-provoking ride, though its unrelenting tone may not be for everyone.
