A Decent Thriller

Rating: 7/10 (27 March 2014)

I recently saw "Non-Stop" a couple of days ago and I personally enjoyed it. It's not just a copy and paste of "Taken" like some people seem to believe. It was unique, creative, and a good deal of fun. But is it as good as other movie thrillers? No, but that's not really a bad thing. It may not be as suspenseful as other great thrillers like "Perfect Blue" or "Rear Window" but it is just as entertaining. "Non-Stop" had a few pretty silly moments and it did drag on a little longer than it really needed to, but it still did its best to keep from losing focus and keep the audience entertained. Is it an absolutely amazing movie? No. Is it a well done movie? Yes. Is it Oscar worthy? No and I don't think it's really meant to be. It's a decent thriller film that does prove to be a great time at the movies. The story is good, the action is good, most of the characters are forgettable but likable, and Liam Neeson is, well, Liam Neeson. It's just a fun movie to watch and I think it's worth at least one viewing.
