Red Eye

Cool horror thriller that never gets boring!

I love movies that concentrate on building a good story. This one is worth watching. It's not a master piece, but it definitely get your attention.

This was fun. Great acting all around. A lot of really great suspense. Got a lot more exciting as soon as they stepped off the plane.

Red Eye is fun as long as you don't analyze it too critically. Rachel McAdams is great and the story is engaging. It knows better than to get bogged down in its subplots and wisely focuses on its narratives' strengths.

I was distracted from the fun enough thriller by Rachel McAdams and Cillian Murphy's combined beauty.

Extra half star for the villainous Cillian. A cute little tight 90 from Craven. File this one under "Post-9/11 Horror".

EDIT: Also, I have a fun fan theory that Glenn Howerton took notes from Cillian Murphy on how to develop Dennis Reynolds for Always Sunny. Just some sort of je ne sais quoi of Murphy's that Howerton pilfered so that he could build what I believe to be one of the funniest TV characters of all time. No data to back this up other than vibes (and the fact that this came out as they would have been writing Season 2), but I want to believe it, y'know?

A thriller that feels like Phone Booth or Nick of Time, so just excellent suspense out of a relatively simple base story. The excellent performances by the brilliant Cillian Murphy and by Rachel McAdams make the movie work. Good entertainment.

Been almost 20 yrs since I first saw this. Was fun to McAdams, Murphy and Cox two decades younger, but this one misses more than it hits. I still was entertained for the most part, but I kept eye rolling harder and harder as we progressed. A generous 5.9 for the decent acting. The script was pretty mediocre.

>"So what is it you do?"

I had no idea Wes Craven directed this! It was fun watching something with a little different style than he is used to doing. Rachel McAdams kills it as usual but Cillian Murphy being a punching bag had me cracking up.

Just a fun movie. Once they got off the plane it got less interesting, but the first hour is quite fun, McAdams and Murphy just make it that way. Solid 6/10
