Non -Stop " was a powerful film , but slightly interesting, because to believe that Liam Neeson, passing from agent to terrorism and terrorist hero , but the terrorist is right and is false, and in that case was mildly interesting , but powerful .

Non-Stop doesn't look exciting to watch. It only is because of Liam Neeson, that's all. Even at the most misunderstanding scenes, I still managed to try loving it, but couldn't anyways.

WHAT I LIKED: The core asset to this film is the mystery, and how tension is built so well. You really don't know what's going to happen, and it grips you more than you might expect.

You really don't know what's going to happen, and it grips you more than you might expect. But this is only possible because you care for the lead - which you do thanks to a fleshed-out character and a great performance from Liam Neeson. It's pretty gritty, edge-of-the seat film making.
WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: The edge of your seat stuff is all well and good, but when the tension is finally released, the ending is pretty poor. Whilst you can suspend disbelief for the bulk of the movie, the appalling CGI and cringey final 20 minutes will leave you feeling that the excellent build up was a little bit wasted
VERDICT: It's a truly gripping and occasionally moving film until the end, where it kind of falls apart.… Expand

Non-Stop is a dumb stupid cheesy action movie that is pretty fun at times, but is still badly written .

A good movie overall. The acting was good, but the story needed work. I don't think most things that happened in this movie could happen in real life. Also, the ending wasn't good at all. It is worth a watch though.

In this suspicious blame game, emotions have no part. They don't have any say. And you know what I liked that this time.

Non-Stop

And we are back. This was not intentional, trust me. And also this time it is not the writer but the director who has got a hold of me, now. Although if you would rummage around my recent catalogue, you'd find Liam Neeson reigning in my mind. So, the director. Jaume Collet-Serra. I think I am getting to know the taste of his films now. They aren't pretentious. I'll give him that. They come in with one agenda. And they make sure you have that badge worn, if not endorsed by you, after you leave the screen. And that is that it is entertaining. It is one gripping ride.

This mid-air hijack suspense thriller is a smooth ride. Just like the plane. I know it doesn't sound like one. But trust me. It is smarter, intuitive and a charming adventure. At the heart of it, is Liam Neeson. And around him is a big plane, that might look like small. And in that smallness, not just physically but also philosophically, your film is safe and sensible. The compactness is intentionally buoyant and never gets too much for you to handle.

It is not there to suffocate you but to allow you to bounce off within those confined walls or more accurately characters, and feed off of them merrily. There is no other joy in the film, in any film, then to be teased or provoked by the storytelling and let your imagination wander and fill the empty space in your mind with powerful theories. And I think for that matter only, Non-Stop was criticized majorly for its final act. A definite answer, no matter how magnanimous, could never replace the towering vision of an individual's mind. Preferably for thoughts aren't bogged down with responsibilities, but the film is, the character was, Liam was.… Expand

This action film is based on a threat against an airplane where an air marshall, in charge of protecting it, is traveling. It is very similar to many other terrorist and hijacker films, but it still does reasonably well.

Liam Neeson is anThis action film is based on a threat against an airplane where an air marshall, in charge of protecting it, is traveling. It is very similar to many other terrorist and hijacker films, but it still does reasonably well.

Liam Neeson is an excellent actor and has a knack for action or thriller films. It is his strength as an actor and he makes this film with ease. The character did not bring any kind of challenge to the actor, and he supports the entire film on his back very well. Julianne Moore also appears, but has had very little to do other than get on the plane and have some more tense dialogues with Neeson. The same can be said of Linus Roache, Michelle Dockery and especially Lupita Nyong'o, who is demoted to a cameo.

Tense and involving, the film still manages to create an environment and build around it. Cinematography is very good and collaborates very well for this purpose, as do the rare but effective special and sound effects. The soundtrack is effective, but I confess that it was not in my ear. The end of the film was criticized at times, but I think it was not possible to do it any other way. However, it could have been rethought in several places where it sounds quite bad, such as dialogues and some situations: for example, how would it be possible for an airplane in such a situation to land at an airport that not even foam placed on the runway?

Despite having several flaws and losing qualities as it unfolds, it is a film that still proved capable of entertaining and involving most of the time.… Expand

Again is a very nice Liam Neeson movie. If you guess who usually makes such films while watching the script, if the scenario is not good.

Although it is preposterous, "Non-Stop" is an exciting and suspenseful thriller, with a fine performance from Liam Neeson.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Suspense in this movie was good. You can't figure out who is the person messaging from other end. But this film had more potential. The main problem with the film according to me was it's climax. The reason given by bad person looked silly to me. The acting was also not upto the mark and at one point films looks unnecessarily stretched. These were the problems I saw in this movie.… Expand

This movie was a good way to pass the time. It was well written and rather simple to follow along with. I would say give it a watch. Liam Neeson is always fun to see.
