Run All Night

"Liam Neeson’s late-career transformation into action star has yielded more interesting results than you might expect. Taken was novel purely because of his involvement and is otherwise xenophobic nonsense, but The Grey is a worthwhile rumination on death and masculinity, and Non-Stop is wonderfully daffy popcorn fun. Neeson re-teaming here with that film’s director Jaume Collett-Serra piqued my anticipation for more absurd entertainment, but sadly it was not to be."

"Collet-Serra brings an understated intensity and a subtle emotional pull to every scene, aided immeasurably by actors who invest their roles..."

"When the movie is doing its tough-guy-seeking-redemption thing, it’s more than just good."

"This is Collet-Serra’s third and best collaboration with Neeson following Unknown and Non-Stop..."

"Has two saving graces: a tight script and terrific acting."

"There’s a lot going on in this movie. But all that texture turns out to be a virtue."

"It could easily have been titled Non-Stop 2."

"With Neeson on fine form and an encouraging start, it’s a shame that this gritty crime drama feels the need to erupt into a full-blown action movie by the end."
