A Big Chuck Movie Review: “Non-Stop” (VIDEO)

Non-Stop is a classic popcorn thriller.

Liam Neeson plays a haggard and world-weary Air Marshall on another, mind-numbing uneventful overseas trip.  And then it kicks into high gear.

Somebody contact Neeson on a secure cell phone number and tells him that a passenger will die every 20 minutes unless $150,000,000 is transferred to a bank account.  The cat and mouse game is fraught with tension and reads like an old Agatha Christie plot.  Who is the culprit?  The pretty red haired woman sitting next to him?  The hot tempered NYPD cop?  The Muslim?  The black teenager in a hoodie?  The salesman?  The guessing game goes on for over an hour and it really is interesting and suspenseful.

New Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o plays a stewardess, as does Michelle Dockery from 'Downton Abbey."

This is a edge of the seat movie and Liam Neeson is great in it.

I give it Four Meatballs, which everybody knows, is my highest rating.
