Non-Stop (2014) [Movie Review]


Non-Stop stars Liam Neeson as US Air Marshall Bill Marks. But there is someone who has set up an operation to make it seem to the world as if Bill is attempting to hijack the plane.

Non-Stop was, and I'm going to apologize right off the bat, a non-stop thrill ride. Sorry again, I had to. From the first moment Neeson shows his face, you know you are in for a treat. He is a mysterious character for the first few minutes, which makes the suspense and thrill start almost instantly.

Co-starring with Neeson is Julian Moore, and she was a perfect fit for the movie. Like any of her other roles. Her character really helps with the progression of the movie. There is one scene where she suggests something out of nowhere which seemed a bit odd, but other than that, her character was a wonderful addition.

When the action starts, Liam Neeson sinks into his typical 'bad-ass' self, which is in no way a bad thing. Watching him bash someones face in about the most entertaining thing I can think of to add to a movie.
Really, the only negative I could think of for this movie is the pacing issues. Some segments feel too rushed, or some characters opinions seemed to change faster than they should. This is truly a minor complaint for an otherwise entertaining movie.

Rating: 8/10
