In ancient Egyptian mythology, a dead person's soul would be weighed against the feather of truth in a ritual called a psychostasy. If their soul was lighter than the feather, it would ascend into the afterlife. Heavy souls were devoured by Maat, eater of the dead. Good films go to hard drive heaven while the recycle bin eats the rest.

Runaway Train (1985)
An action film directed by Andrei Konchalovsky, based on a screenplay by Akira Kurosawa.
A pair of prisoners escape from jail and board a train. The conductor gets sick and lets the train leave the station unattended. The criminals get the train stuck in top speed and discover a female worker who is still on board. The train traffic controllers try to stop the train, but it is up to the 3 people on board to stop it.
The characters were good and I liked the plot. some of the winter scenes were pretty and the pacing was right. Manny reminded me of my friend's druncle. I'm rating it good because it kept my attention and I liked it.
