Wes Craven directed this thriller about a young hotel supervisor (Rachel McAdams) returning home to Miami from her grandmother's fineral in Texas. Prior to boarding her flight she encounters and has a drink with Cillian Murphy, a young man who turns out to be part of a plot to asassinate the Deputy of Homeland Security and his family. On the plane Murphy tells McAdams that her father is being held by an associate and will be killed unless she calls her assistant at the hotel and has the Deputy and his family's room changed to one which will make the killing easier. McAdams tries a number of ways to warn the airliner's crew and when the plane lands she successfully escapes after disbling Murphy, who gives chase. The two leads have excellent chenmistry (of the negative type, of course) and both are convincing actors. This one worked for me in the theater and again last night in my home theater on DVD. The sound is great, with rich deep bass tones and events.
