Mostly satisfying.

Rating: 7/10 (5 May 2015)

I saw NON-STOP at the cinema and I loved it. To me NON-STOP was an astounding thriller with a strong build-up, tense setup, reasonable amount of tension and suspense, an overall solid screenplay and a noteworthy performance from Liam Neeson whose character you can easily care for and embodies a role that is absolutely compelling. Even Julianne Moore and the supportive cast was good. The characters are interesting. Talking about interesting characters and tense setup at the beginning of my review I have enormous difficulties understanding the critics consensus for NON- STOP on the Rotten Tomatoes site saying that NON-STOP wastes its cast, not to mention its tense setup and premise that hinges on a thoroughly unbelievable final act!!! I have enormous difficulties understanding it because in the movie I see the exact contrary: the movie doesn't waste its cast nor its setup or premise and it leads to a final act that is very believable so could someone please tell me why on earth is this critics consensus saying that!!! Anyways, moving on now. The fact that the movie included a 5 years old girl character who has never taken a plane before in her life and is scared of taking the plane and she suddenly and unexpectedly gets caught up in the midst of the horrible things that happen during the story made the film more important than what it already was. The movie makes yet another good job of making you haunted non-stop throughout the movie with this one question: "WHO is the guilty person on this plane?" However the movie bothered me a bit with its lack of style and plot which I didn't find was original. Furthermore, I thought that there was a bit too much or too much of "I'm sorry" in the film. Nevertheless NON-STOP is a ride I'm not ready to forget. My rating: 8.0/10
