A unique story that was thrilling and engaging.

Rating: 8/10 (8 August 2014)

Not much was expected from a thriller on a plane (Snakes On a Plane come to mind anyone?) but this was surprisingly suspenseful and full of mystery. Marks (Liam Neeson) gets suspicious of everyone and the audience along with him. We do not understand the full situation and are kept along with Marks as he progresses through different situations.
The action scenes were really well planned and put together. It really was non-stop, and things just kept happening while the minds of the audience are reeling to find the culprit.
The acting was also superb. Liam Neeson has a knack for action and thrillers. Though there was this one point around the climax where I thought he was overdoing it a bit, but I guess that might have just been his character as he gets more desperate to find the criminal. Julianne Moore was great as well, but I feel that her character was a bit shallow. Last but not least, Michelle Dockery was fantastic, (I am kind of biased towards her as I love Downton Abbey) her facial expressions and her delivery were just spot on.
A few things I did not like: One, Liam Neeson's character seems to be able to defy the force of being sucked out of an aeroplane. Two, do air Marshalls not get checked?
