On a late-night flight to Miami, hotel manager Rachel McAdams sits next to Cillian Murphy

On a late-night flight to Miami, hotel manager Rachel McAdams sits next to Cillian Murphy. He seems charming, but in fact he chillingly knows all about her - and tells her that unless she moves a politician to another room in her hotel where he's to be assassinated, her dad (Brian Cox) will die…

It's an excellent idea and resourceful McAdams and creepy Murphy give top-flight performances. Director Wes Craven makes the most of the tension in the air and it's a riveting, first-class ride that hits the ground running for a thrilling finale.
