We saw Non-Stop tonight. Liam Neeson is another tough buy, an Air Marshall with a sketchy history, who's framed by guys who are murdering passengers and crew and want money to stop. As usual, Liam kicks a*s, takes over, there is the usual mix of possible perpetrators on the plane, innocents and victims. That said, it's fairly tense, is a good thrill ride and because I didn't expect great Cinema, I enjoyed it. Once it was all over, I needed a few minutes get my adrenalin down. If your expectations are right, it's quite good.

I actually kind of want to see this, and I'm not part of the action group of this forum. I just love movies that take place on planes, due to the moving isolation.I mean Snakes on a Plane is awesome, well maybe not awesome, but it is a whole lot of fun.

I haven't seen it yet so correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Liam Neeson's character afraid of flying? How does one who's afraid of flying make a career as an air marshal? That alone makes me worried about the integrity of this movie...

He's a bit of a head case, also smokes and drinks too much. That's part of the plot setup; he has to rise to confront the situation, in spite of the fact that his reputation isn't good among the marshals. This, after all is an action movie, not and instructional video on airline security. You can't expect too much integrity, mainly just a good thrill ride. I was somewhat troubled when gravity made a loose gun go UP, but you can't look too closely.

Caught it in the cinema the other day, Loved it! Liam Neeson played it great, nice little action flick which really takes you into the characters mind. I definitely recommend it.

I saw it and really enjoyed it. No need to see it in the theater though. Unless you are having a bad day at work, and just want to take your mind off of things. I thought it was better than Unknown, but almost as good as Taken

I hated this movie. I'm just going to be honest. I literally pointed at someone during the movie and sort of jokingly said "that's gonna be the bad guy at the end of the movie." And I was right. I'm being serious. This movie was so full of cliches it made me sick.

It does have a few cliches, but how did you manage to guess the bad guy ...pure luck:)

sort of. he was a minor character with a few lines and ive noticed that a lot of thrillers have the culprit end up being some minor character you never think of. So i kind of jokingly pointed at the guy and said "thats gonna be the bad guy at the end of the movie"
