Our Review
Stop! That! Train! delivers exactly the kind of joyful, over-the-top camp that fans of RuPaul’s Drag Race and classic disaster parodies have been craving. Adam Shankman directs with infectious energy, turning a high-concept disaster premise into a hilarious, heartfelt celebration of drag culture and found family. RuPaul shines as the larger-than-life President Judy Gagwell, bringing star power and perfect comedic timing, while the ensemble of drag performers (including Symone, Brooke Lynn Hytes, and Marcia Marcia Marcia) create wonderful chemistry and memorable moments.
The film cleverly blends rapid-fire jokes, visual gags, and emotional beats, paying loving homage to 1970s disaster flicks like Airport while updating them with modern wit and inclusivity. It’s silly, stylish, and surprisingly sweet, never taking itself too seriously but delivering genuine laughs and warmth. Early critical response has been largely positive, with praise for the cast’s rapport, the film’s playful tone, and its unapologetic celebration of drag.
At the box office, Stop! That! Train! has opened strongly for a wide-release comedy with a specific but passionate audience, showing healthy numbers in its first two days. The film’s unique blend of disaster parody and drag humor is resonating, especially with younger viewers and fans of RuPaul’s Drag Race. Compared to other recent campy comedies or drag-centric films, it stands out for its big-screen spectacle and heartfelt core.
Looking ahead, Stop! That! Train! is well-positioned for a strong word-of-mouth run and should perform excellently on streaming, where its rewatchable humor and iconic moments can find an even wider audience. For fans of fun, feel-good entertainment with a drag twist, this is a summer treat that delivers exactly what it promises — big laughs and bigger heart.
