WHAT I LIKED: This is yet another Liam Neeson-fronted thriller so we should have some idea of what we're getting by now, but the core asset of 'Non-Stop,' is undoubtedly the mystery and the way it builds tension so surprisingly well. Yes you genuinely don't know what's going to happen here as it grips you more than you might expect thanks to investment in the character built by an occasionally sensitive script and another great performance from Liam Neeson.
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 laughably poor as the appalling CGI and overall construction of the final scenes will leave you feeling that the excellent build up was rather wasted as a whole.
VERDICT: A truly gripping and occasionally moving film until the end; 'Non-Stop' succeeds for its majority, then completely falls apart in its laughable final act.1 member likes this review.
