Review of Red Eye (2005) by Eriky. — 05 Aug 2006
Awful movie. Just awful. Terrible plot, annoying actors, predictable, poor characterization, just atrocious. The beginning was littered with bad clichés and tired dialogue. The middle was farfetched and the end was unexplained and bared little resemblance to anything that happened previous.
Case in point, the story evolves from airport bar, to airplane, and finally to a knife-chase scene at a suburban house. Lastly there was too many loose ends and the film rapped up ineffectively. This is best illustrated with one of the final lines, "And after you finish [the comment card] you can go ahead and just shove it up your ass".
Note, this line had nothing to do with the film and was spoken unexpectedly. There was no running gag, there wasn't some hilarious set-up, that was the line in it's entirety. I can't go any further in explaining how hideous watching this movie was.
Shame on those critics who believed this film had any redeeming qualities. I can confidently say that this was the worst film I've ever seen.
