Review of Red Eye

Red Eye (2005)
A terrific thriller with two great leads.
26 October 2019
Movie 26/31 of my happy octobering horror marathon. Red Eye is very underrated in my opinion. I love this cast and know Wes Craven is a big name, but I still didn't expect this film to be so damn good since the ratings it got aren't so positive. Anyway, it's way better than its reputation if you ask me. This movie is always thrilling, though surely not much of a horror film but I'll still count it toward my marathon since it's considered one, and never boring for even just a second. Rachel McAdams and Cillian Murphy are brilliant in it and have fantastic chemistry. Their characters are believable and other characters bring in some humour once the film gets nothing but tense and balance the overall mood out exactly enough. I don't have many cons to bring up besides the ending not being as good as the rest of the movie. Definitely give this one a watch.
