Review of Red Eye

Red Eye (2005)
1/10
Sucks
24 January 2006
I don't know how to put this other than I don't think this can be classified as a movie. Firstly, it barely runs long enough to be a TV movie. That is almost criminal. Secondly, for a suspense movie, this is ridiculously tame. I've seen animated movies with more violence and gore. Sure, that does not make a great suspense movie necessarily, but in this case it seems to be striving for it but holds back because the director knows it will only be cut in the inevitable TV premiere. Unfortunately, the two leads are definitely capable actors but are floundering thanks to weak plot and direction. The casting of a former "Survivor" in a fairly prominent secondary role reduces this movie to a joke status. I feel bad for everyone involved.
