Stop! That! Train!
6/15/202622 min
The ridiculously fun new film Stop! That! Train! brings the gags-a-minute silliness of Airplane! to the bawdy world of RuPaul’s Drag Race. But does it chug along smoothly or does it veer off the rails? RuPaul stars as the president of the United States who must help save a train from a massive stormaganza. Drag queens Jujubee and Ginger Minj are train attendants aboard the runaway train filled with Drag Race alumni and comedy heavy-hitters who are here to serve looks and bring the shade.

[upbeat music] Stop That Train is what you get if you took the gags and minute silliness of Airplane, crossed it with the lighthearted friendship of Barb and Star, and then filtered it through the bawdy lens of RuPaul's Drag Race. In case it's not clear, this is a good thing.

It stars Mother herself, RuPaul Charles, as the President of the United States, because of course it does. Along for the ridiculous ride on this runaway train is a cavalcade of Drag Race alumni and comedy heavy hitters who are all here to serve looks and bring the shade. I'm Glen Weldon.
