Liam Neeson Gets Blackmailed On Public Transport: Part 2 Can't wait for part 3. I'd suggest a tram.
DirkHJan 14, 2018Sturdy but unsurprising. If you're looking for an impeccable formal exercise featuring a train as an analog for runaway capitalism do yourself a favor and re-watch UNSTOPPABLE.

If I had a nickel for every time Vera Farmiga played a significant role in a film where a male protagonist is stuck in an active train, then I’d have... 2 nickels, which isn’t a lot, but it’s wierd it’s happened twice
Arnon🪐Mar 27, 2018Economic anxiety and our mechanized life. The Hollywood and late capitalist machinery at work, one and the same, with police state conspiracy as mediator. The American working class might not go to heaven, but has a meeting with a derailed train. Jaume Collet-Serra,…

- Victoria is "meh" onThe Commuter
an interesting plot and the suspense was really well crafted throughout. kinda reminds me of the box concept wise but this was an easier watch than that. also great cast and filming style
Art likedThe CommuterVon vs Neeson for the Battle of O-Block, Liam Neeson hit the Cuyler Garland route. #Serbiaaaa
FTT UTD lovedThe CommuterHaving enjoyed Non-Stop, I decided to watch another Liam Neeson film I had not yet seen. Like Non-Stop, it was equally gripping and brilliantly cast. I have been a fan of Liam Neeson for a long time. His performances captivate me and millions of other filmgoers each time a new film is released.…
- Semi lovedThe Commuter
9/10 rlly good towards the end 🥰 not to dig at the main characters acting cause it WAS rlly good but… why in every movie does it sound like he’s shouting in lower case 😭😭. just SCREAMMMM man it’s an action movie ur ab to die i think it’s very valid💀
eternallove lovedThe CommuterBack straight, eyes wide open, and mind constantly twisting and turning. Neeson is phenomenal during every action sequence and Cameron’s cinematography captures the thrill so intensely.
Kristina x lovedThe CommuterLiam neeson can play the same character in any film and it will always be a good watch. Love a thriller and this definitely had the suspense I need in a film, so much going on!
- dobz is "meh" onThe Commuter
sit back down, i’m sat x liam neeson plays the same thing in like every movie, doesn’t help that ive just rewatched non-stop… it was an ok movie, wouldn’t rewatch x
CvptvinHowdy is "meh" onThe CommuterSo you have this cast, but they're all just background characters… lame. It's a generic Liam Neeson thriller that's a little better than okay.
Jikitiz likedThe CommuterHe commutes for a living, and Von is not bad, Liam gets it done in this high stakes action thriller. He protects and serves. It's giving.

While it doesn't pay to think too hard about the plot, after four of these films, director Collet-Serra, shooting here on a 30-ton set put together from authentic discarded railroad scrap, is an expert, so to speak, at making this kind of train run on time.

If Collet-Serra put Neeson on a merry-go-round and added some danger, I’d gladly show up.

An action picture whose aging hero we care about and root for, a thriller with tension and style, a B-movie Hitchcock would have been happy to call his own.
