2014 Movie Preview: #18 - Non-Stop

Release date: February 28

Plot summary: Global action star Liam Neeson stars in "Non-Stop," a suspense thriller played out at 40,000 feet in the air. During a transatlantic flight from New York City to London, U.S. Air Marshal Bill Marks (Neeson) receives a series of cryptic text messages demanding that he instruct the government to transfer $150 million into an off-shore account. Until he secures the money, a passenger on his flight will be killed every 20 minutes.

My take: The Liam Neeson career resurgence as a bad-ass action star continues here. Although the story in some of his films have been sub-par, he always finds a way to bring the goods. The good news here is that the story sounds promising as well. Given that the Die Hard franchise has seemingly fallen off the wheels, perhaps this film can help fill that void.
