THE REVIEW:

Taken's front-man Liam Neeson is out to save the day once again. But this time we are taken to the skies in a plane filled with innocent passengers and some nutjob in this atmospheric thriller. When Mr Neeson has an action film out you just have to check it out. He has all the attributes of a good cop actor.

Bill (Neeson) is a Federal Air Marshall who is assigned to accompany international flights. On this flight from New York to London there is an apparent high-jacking. Bill is framed and has to catch the real perpetrator before landing. From the trailer, the story seems straightforward but that's far from the finished product. Its an edge of the seat type movie with twists nobody can see coming.                                                                                                      I love a 'Whodunnit' type movie because it keeps the mind active, guessing who the culprit could be as the movie progressed. The script is set up to advance with every new discovery, there's more to learn about each character as they are introduced. The time is ticking, nerves are at an all time high, fingers are been pointed as well as guns and this is all happening 30k feet in the air. Director Juame Collet-Serra builds up throughout for an explosive finale. The effects of the plane look realistic.

No movie is perfect, neither is this one. There are one or two plot holes if watching really closely. The pace of the movie is moving Non-Stop, you might not notice. But if you do notice then you wont believe the ending and the reactions of the plane passengers as events unfold. I also noticed there wasn't enough fight scenes. If you're going to play the tough guy hero then beat a few more people up.  

.

Liam Neeson does do a brilliant job in keeping this movie in focus and adding to the suspense. The stereotype fits him perfectly, he has the dramatic skills that work well in his favour. He keeps the movie interesting and worked well with his cast.

This is no Taken but its half way there.

THE REVIEW:

 This movie does its job. Its funny, energetic and comes with not a perfect storyline but an enjoyable one. I didn't mind sitting in my seat, catching the jokes and laughing out loud with the rest of the cinema on release day.                                                                                Comedian turned actor Kevin Hart plays Ben, a peculiar man. He headlines with Ice Cube, he plays James, a crazy but tough cop in this buddy comedy movie. Ben takes a ride along to impress James but gets wrapped up in a case James is currently obsessed about.                                                                                                          The storyline is as expected. A cop teaming up with someone he does not like, the pair have to get along in the midst of many arguments. The cliches do not run too deep, the director takes the conscious decision to use a varied amount. The ones chosen fit with the tempo and are genuinely funny. 

The scrip picks up flaws when scenes are made just to fill up time. The further i went into the movie, the more predictable it got. Some twists didn't even make sense but thankfully the jokes did. The overall good outweigh the transparent script because the dialogue kept the jokes coming each scene. I wanted more character development between the two front man. There's just not enough background information to go on.

Films genres like this come at least once a month. Its who's the front man that's going to make you want to watch it. Kevin Hart is a comedian, put him in front of a camera in a comedy movie and that's exactly what your going to get. His performance is where the money is, if the movie was going to fall flat on its face then he was there to save it. He seems to be enjoying his time in the spotlight doing what he does best. He showed great chemistry with Ice Cube. Fans will not be disappointing with the end product. This is what i call capitalizing in your prime. From his hit comedy stand up DVD "Let Me Explain" to this, is a good look.

Kevin Harts enthusiasm and his Ice Cube partnership is definitely worth checking out.
