Movie Poster for 'Non-Stop' |
In addition to Neeson, the wonderful cast includes Julianne Moore, Michelle Dockery, Linus Roache, Lupita Nyong'o, and numerous others as passenger and crew aboard the ill-fated flight.
The plot is full of more holes and loose ends than a hookers fishnets. In order to sustain the suspense, nearly every character becomes a suspect at some point. Much of the story is moved along by cell-phone messages, making everyone on the plane with a cell phone suspect. Only the 8-year-old child travelling alone is spared -- she's a different plot device.
If you're looking for moment-to-moment thrills with little regard for coherence or if you're a die hard Liam Neeson fan or if you're looking for new hypotheses for the disappearance of Malaysian Air Flight 370 you might be interested. All others are duly warned.
I thought the movie was quite good and interesting for the first-half, but plot complications and red-herrings put the film into a nosedive after that. It ended up a mess, but it did have a good startt.
