Bill Marks is a burned-out veteran of the Air Marshals service. He views the assignment not as a life-saving duty, but as a desk job in the sky. However, today's flight will be no routine trip. Shortly into the transatlantic journey from New York to London, he receives a series of mysterious text messages ordering him to have the government transfer $150 million into a secret account, or a passenger will die every 20 minutes.

Very disappointing...
Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
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. I watched this movie with my family and we could not have guessed who the bad guy was. Thrill has not even fallen for a moment, the director is always doing these kinds of movies and really mastering it Liam Neeson and Jaume Collet-Serra have always liked the movies they have made together, and neither is it so bad, nor is it very nice to have a moderate viewing pleasure lastly i like
I despise the title of this film. Automatically brings out connotations of blandness and genericness, kind of like a Straight-To-DVD low budget action film starring Bruce Willis or Nicholas Cage. However, the Neeson and Collet-Serra combination is a winning formula as this is yet another fun ride. A damaged Air Marshal is trapped in a murderous mystery where he must transfer $150 million to a bank account. If he doesn't, a passenger will meet their demise every 20 minutes until he does so. All of this happens on board a long plane journey. It works, it works so well. Very reminiscent to 'Flightplan', but far more focussed on the characters. Like with any mystery, the list of suspects need to be developed to a point where the final reveal shocks you. Given the small runtime, I believe the character developments were adequate. Their backstories and motives are naturally revealed. It's not a case of our protagonist interviewing each one in turn, he instead provokes them and addresses the passengers as one entity. Sure there are times where he questions individuals, which is necessary to identify possible suspects, but that cannot be avoided. I appreciate the small details in these characters. Moore's vulnerability is shown as she explains why she sits on the window seat, our Air Marshal's troubled past is revealed which questions the authenticity of his actions. It's very twisty, full of turns and a meticulously thought out narrative. The final reveal and motives are slightly blurred and unmemorable, although I was still on the edge of my seat...even after my fifth viewing! The claustrophobic environment adds to the suspense and tension. Liam Neeson still thrives on his rejuvenated action career. I did roll my eyes at the end where he was saving the little girl, makes his character arc far too predictable. Non-Stop is not going to fly away as a classic thriller, but it lands with such confidence that it's hard not to enjoy this.
One day, Bill Marks who is a federal air marshal officer received email on the flight and it says if he doesn't meet the sender's request, one of the passengers will die after 20min, so he try to find the sender.This film conceals the sender from audiences very well. Most of scenes are showed at Bill's view so I didn't expect who is the sender until last scene. Moreover, many times finding suspects effectively confused me. What I surprised most is Bill is being made out to be a terrorist by sender's plan naturally. At that scene, I thought the sender (the screenwriter of this film, actually) is truly genius. A flight, a security officer, and death, the story seems very common from these words, but this film is really great.In addition, action scene is also good. Liam Neeson acted Bill very cool. Action scenes are not many in this film, but I think enough to fascinate audiences because that flight situation was used very well.Thus, by concealing the sender and cool action, I enjoyed this film without any moments of boring.
This movie was a fun and thrilling action movie that was filled with one plot twist after another. It keeps you guessing right until the end. Just when you think you know "who done it" the story throws another curve at you. The final reveal comes at you unexpectedly, but the heart pounding action doesn't stop there.Liam Neeson was awesome as always. The supporting characters give the story line just what it needs to keep you on the edge of suspense through the entire film.I can't say if the story line is plausible but everything seemed to be within the realm of possibility, making this movie even edgier and more frightening. One of the best action flicks I've seen in a long time!
