Everything Wrong with Singapore's Train Hijack Drama



As a Security Studies major and former military regular, I break down everything wrong with Third Rail, a Singaporean drama revolving around a train hijack. Maybe they should have hired me as an advisor 😂

  1. Ah thanks for the heads-up, luckily I watched this before watching the actual thing. It actually seems worse than the generic American zombie film involving generals sending 400 infantrymen into an obviously dangerous zone. I really thought our film industry was better 🤦‍♂️

  2. Good points but I have some disagreements.

    Side of tunnel can be dangerous because of ricochets. Standard safety is to stay away from walls. Advancing in a narrow line compromises firepower because only the first guy can shoot. Choose depending on the situation.

    Jammers work in specific frequencies. Cell phones have a dedicated band of frequencies.

    Silenced sniper is not practical unless for low power round like .22LR which few police or army units use for sniping. Standard rifle round or even 9mm pistol round will still be very loud even if subsonic ammunition is used with a suppressor.

    Helmet flashlight is useful in some situations. Problem with rifle flashlight is you are always pointing your gun at anything you illuminate. Accidents happen. Choose depending on the situation.

  3. Goddamn what the hell is Medicorp doing? I was considering joining the SPF but after seeing this drama I think I rather join the hijackers…

    But seriously though if they were able to make a good film about such an operation that would actually be amazing

  4. They made Special Forces in SG feel and look stupid and not professional… this is disappointing…😮‍💨 I always admire our SOTF since their Singapore Airlines Flight 117 hijack incident as they rescued all civilians and have zero casualties. 😥 It really shows how MediaCorp doesn't care about important details and they should consult military experts to make a more realistic show.

  5. If I meet my escort at hotel 81, then I can’t be in the train. And she can’t bump into her son and his friends. 😝😝😝 please make pt 2. We enjoyed this so much.
