Review of The Commuter (2018) by Waltertsolley — 25 Jan 2018

“The Commuter” is an exciting, if implausible, action-mystery movie that reinforces Liam Neeson’s credentials as the most indestructible of senior citizens. Despite plot holes big enough—and, pardon the phrase—“to drive a train through”, this commute is never less than interesting, and often exceptionally entertaining.

Though it derails near the end as it tries to tie up all the loose story ends, overall it’s a nifty genre film that is served very well by the big screen. A technically impressive film, with fine performances, taut direction, and high production values; but, in need of a better script.
