This thriller from director Wes Craven is okay, a typical by-the-numbers Hollywood movie that fails to leave any lasting impression.Lisa (Rachel McAdams) is returning to Florida after going to Texas to her grandmother's funeral. At the airport she meets Jackson Rippner (Cillian Murphy of 28 DAYS LATER, BATMAN BEGINS). As they wait for their delayed flight they share a drink. Once on the airplane she finds that she's seated next to him. A coincidence? He explains that he's been following her and that she has to make a phone call or that her father will be killed. The phone call is to her work at a hotel, and she's supposed to change the room of the guy ahead of Homeland Security to another room, where Rippner's employers will try to assassinate him and his family. The last half hour of the movie takes place on the ground, where she tries to stop this event from happening. I'd say this is Craven's worst movie since SWAMP THING.
