Non-Stop

This reminded me of a lot of the other plane movies: Passenger 57, Air Force One, Executive Decision, Red Eye. Thankfully Liam Neeson holds your attention well during the otherwise typical proceedings. It’s fun to watch, but I must admit, I rolled my eyes a bit when Neeson’s air marshall finally solves the mystery and reveals the villainous motives of the evil high-jackers. It felt a little “tacked on” and “ripped from the headlines.” Anyhoo, it’s a fun experience, despite the lack of emotional fulfillment.
