Thanks for the memories!

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

I've never seen this director's movies before, but after enduring this one I'll be sure to avoid any others of his.I like Liam Neeson but he looked very weary in this, possibly because he knew how bad it was. The fight scenes were unbelievable and cringe-worthy, while the action sequences demanded total suspension of belief, with obvious CGI.The plot didn't make much sense either. We never really learn who is behind the overall conspiracy. Just who is controlling everything?I remember Liam Neeson playing decent roles once upon a time, but it's been about 15 years since I've liked him in anything. I guess I was nostalgic when I decided to watch this, hoping he would do a decent job. Unfortunately, the writing is so bad that his character was pretty ridiculous. Going from a cop to selling insurance, huh? I won't comment on any of the other characters because they were too thinly drawn. The ending was laughable as well. I would say to avoid this mess.

The Commuter is the latest action thriller starring Liam Neeson. In a film in which he portrays a character he has done many times before, as he knows how to entertain audiences. The Commuter is a quick and simple, yet thrilling and suspenseful action film. From the same director as other previous Liam Neeson films (Non Stop, and Run the Night), this film does what its expected. Which is to entertain and deliver several scenes and moments of suspense. Although somewhat predictable in the end, The Commuter is still a great ride and worth the watch.

I usually like Liam movies, but this one was a little over the top. It was not bad, but he is supposedly a 60 year old guy that takes on these younger guys and kicks their ass.

Family man Michael (Liam Neeson) has been working for a life insurance company for ten years. He gets made redundant so goes for a pint and travels back home on his usual scheduled train. He gets approached by a mysterious woman (Vera Farmiga) who wants him to find someone. He can handle these situations very well because he has a particular set of skills as he used to be an NYPD cop. Why do characters always have to have a skilled background??The film is a predictable standard fare action thriller which has some entertaining often implausible moments. Liam Neeson is back to his old ways and really delivers the goods. The film bares many similarities to his pervious film (Non-Stop) but this time it's set on a train. It is an enjoyable mystery thriller but ultimately feels too dumbed down to reach a wider audience. But nevertheless The Commuter is an enjoyable serviceable action thriller.
