Red Eye (2005) 9/10

Starring : Rachel McAdams, Cillian Murphy, Brian Cox
Director : Wes Craven
Running Time : 82mins

Lisa Reisart (McAdams) finds herself being held hostage by maniac Jackson Ripner (Murphy), who threatens to kill her father if she doesn't change a politicians hotel room so that he can have him killed.

Well, to start off, what a great film! Cillian Murphy (28 Days Later and Batman Begins) is suitably scary as Jackson Rippner (nice pun) who holds the delectable Rachel McAdams (Mean Girls and The Family Stone) hostage. Wes Craven ably directs this, giving us just enough suspense to keep us on the edge of our seats, waiting for Rippner to eventually strike! I see a lot of good things coming from Rachel McAdams in the future, despite her relatively limited portfolio. Definitely worth watching!
