'Non-Stop' Review: Liam Neeson Thriller Hits New Left-Wing Low (Major Spoiler Alert)
Breitbart.com/Big-Hollywood ^ | 3-1-2014 | John Nolte

Posted on 03/01/2014 10:55:33 AM PST by servo1969

**SPOILER ALERT** Most of the suspense and therefore enjoyment of Liam Neeson's new action thriller "Non Stop" comes from trying to figure out who the villain is and why this person is doing what he or she is doing. If you read the rest of this article, it will spoil the entire movie for you. Period. You have been warned.

There is no question that "Non-Stop" is a well-made, involving, not-terribly-dumb action-thriller that delivers plenty of suspense and endears Liam Neeson further into the heart of those of us who love well-made, involving, not-terribly-dumb action-thrillers. "Non-Stop" is a good movie. Heck, it is darn near very good. But the left-wing sucker punch at the end is a new low, even for Hollywood.

Here come the spoilers. You have been warned.

On an international flight over the Atlantic, burnt-out alcoholic flight marshal Bill Marks (Neeson) is hoping for a nice easy flight in first class where after sneaking a smoke and drink he might even be able to catch a little shut-eye. A text message informing him that one person on the flight will die every twenty-minutes unless $150 million is wired to an account, ruins that plan.

Counting pilots and crew, there are around 150 souls on board. Marks has 20 minutes to figure out which one is the bad guy. Red herrings abound. Is it one of the many actors whose faces we recognize but names we can't remember? People start to die. Marks is fingered as the hijacker. Who's doing this? Why are they doing this? What is their motive?

Here's the answer:

“The 9/11 family member-turned-terrorist is upset because America hasn’t done enough to ensure there will never be another 9/11.” Seriously?

You made it that far with the Jack Ryan movies? They lost me with Clear and Present Danger. Pathetic. At least the most recent Jack Ryan movie doesn't pretend to be based on a book.

Well it isn’t a rumor. He said what he said. So stop being a twit.

And then he starts making movies portraying American Patriots and victims of 9/11 as evil but Muslims as sweet and gentle souls. Yeah I’m sure it’s just a rumor! /vomit

The one passenger on the plane who is forever helpful, kind, reasonable, noble, and never under suspicion is a Muslim doctor dressed in traditional Muslim garb including a full beard.

Of course not. Muslims are not generally allowed to be the villains (except for Liam's prior movies, Taken and Taken 2; maybe he was required to do penance by being in this movie).

The bad guy always has to be some right-winger or businessman.

A good example as to why Hollywood will not and has not received a single dime from me in many, many moons.

It’s funny considering all this hubbub about Russia and its position as America’s number-one geopolitical enemy. Especially when Hollywood has demonstrated that it’s a far greater enemy to everything I value and hold dear. Indeed, when using the word “enemy,” it’s Hollywood that truly fits the bill, as far as I’m concerned.

He also said that he saw Aslan (Narnia character whom he voiced) as not being a symbol of Christ.

” “Aslan symbolises a Christ-like figure but he also symbolises for me Mohammed, Buddha and all the great spiritual leaders and prophets over the centuries,” Neeson said. “That’s who Aslan stands for as well as a mentor figure for kids – that’s what he means for me.”

IMO everything after after Aslan symbolizes mohammed (pigs be upon him) is cover or taqiya. I do not expect too much in the way of deep thinking by actors. But, when they are deliberately ignorant or misleading to this extent, I suspect the easy conclusions are correct.

He is a convert or a deluded sympathizer on the way to converting. A real shame as he was a great actor in a number of exceptional movies. I will be going out of my way to avoid anything he is in now.

I figured it would be the Tea Party. Maybe it’s those 9/11 widows who got so much publicity blaming Bush.

Apparently bowing, praying, and reading are just a “rumor”.

Seems that Muslim web sites are claiming that Neeson has converted to Islam.

So does the Irish Mirror: Liam's Taken to Islam, but afraid what his home town will think

Movie star Liam Neeson has admitted he’s afraid to convert to Islam because of how locals in his home town would take it.

The Northern Irish actor thinks Islam “is the answer” after experiencing the Muslim call to prayer while filming Taken 2 in Istanbul.

But the 61-year-old doesn’t want to go all the way because people in Ballymena, Co Antrim, may be annoyed with his decision.

So it looks like he's admitting he's converted, but doesn't want to make it official.

Too late, just got back from seeing it. We couldn't believe they blamed it on a 9\11 family member + a military member (although if he was muslim, which they don't address....). There were other problems with the movie, but that was the biggest & very disappointing. One more actor to take off the watch list.

This should be posted far and wide, in this order:

The villain in the “Non Stop” movie is the 9/11 family member on board. And by the way, spoiler alert.

It’s the perfect inside out,turns and twists plot except Marks should be transgendered and therein lies the covert homophobia of the script and Neelson.

Since January 20, 2009, that's an absolute fact!

Seriously, I want to thank people for saving me $16 worth of Costco tickets and two hours of my life on something that probably would have put me in a foul mood for at least a week. I know people who worked in the South Tower on that day including a couple who didn't get out.

Guess we'll go watch Mt. Vesuvius blow it's top instead.
