Mayelana nale movie

Bill Marks (Liam Neeson - Unknown, Taken) 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.

For a neeson action packed film, something was lacking. It didn't grip in the way that Taken or even The Grey (I know that one wasn't to everyone's liking) did. They had grit and drew you in. Some how with this one you could stay distant and be easily distracted. I didn't guess whose who straight away but there weren't too many surprises in the end - unfortunately.

Unless you're the type of person to nit pick at every technicality you're unlikely to find anything that happens unbelievable. However for me personally this film is lacking in uniqueness. You spend the entire film watching an alcoholic be unreasonably violent towards passengers while he runs back and forth along a plane. The plot is somewhat intriguing, you're constantly guessing as to who the bad guy is, and there's an interesting, unimagined, twist at the end.

You have to just forget all the implausible things in this film and enjoy it for it is; entertainment. It did entertain me. Pro's: keeps you guessing "whodunit," my mind was constantly changing throughout. Pretty action packed yet full of suspense despite being set in 1 location, a plane. Con's: the main character has lots of flaws, and is pretty violent when its not necessary. I'm sure anyone in the airline industry will pick technicalities to pieces also.
