THE REVIEW:
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.

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.

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.
TRAILER:
Didn't quite know who the baddie was, or for what reasons, and once I found that out, I can't say I believed it too much. However, I was on-edge throughout most of this. Good review.
