A suspense thriller with a deadly assassination plot, based on a story by Ellsworth and Dan Foos.

Lisa Reisert played by Rachel McAdams is a Miami luxury hotel manager. She is on her way from Dallas to Miami red eye flight. While waiting in line to check in, Lisa meets Jackson Rippner (Cillian Murphy), a smooth talking charmer travelling on the same flight. The two of them flirts for sometime and went in different ways but it turns out that their seats are next to each other on the flight.

Right after the flight takes off, Jackson reveals that he is on a mission that requires Lisa's help and cooperation. He is an operative in a plot to assassinate the Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security (Jack Scalia) who is going to check into Lisa's posh hotel the next morning. Jackson wants her to authorize a room change so that the hit squad will have a clear shot. If  Lisa refuses to cooperate, her father will be killed by an assassin awaiting a call from Jackson.

Lisa definitely had a rough ride on that flight. As Jackson revealed more details about his plan, Lisa realized that she has a lot to worry about during that flight as well as after reaching Miami. Find out how Jackson is going to work his scheme out and how Lisa is going to deal with the dramatic situation. Will Lisa go with Jackson's plan in order to save the life of her dad?.

Director Wes Craven successfully presents a story filled with heart pounding actions and suspense. In this age of stressful air travel, he puts the hero and the villain in the closed space of an airplane and makes an amazing suspense film out of a plane flight. He skillfully unfolds the sequences with perfect logic. So far this is his best film.

Rachel McAdams as Lisa, presents an excellent performance. She carries the film very well as a high flying business woman as well as a scared little woman. She is focused and professional and makes an excellent heroine for this film. Whichever way you look at it, she is a likeable personality who can catch your attention for a long period of time. Cillian Murphy as Jackson is very focused and deliver his dialogues with great effectiveness. Rachel and Cillian are good together and they have an unusual chemistry. They are an awesome team.

The story keeps a steady pace throughout the film and it is filled with good action sequences. It has good suspense and it will keep you on the edge throughout the film. Moreover it is good to see a thriller film without much nudity and sex. It is a wonderfully shot film with good entertainment value.

We rate this movie GOOD.
