About
If you enjoy contained mystery-thrillers with a frantic search and mounting paranoia, this can be a solid ride, especially if you liked the vibe of The Skeleton Key; Not for you if you hate implausible twists or a late shift into action.
Pros: tense in-flight mystery; strong lead performance; claustrophobic atmosphere | Cons: far-fetched plot turns; uneven supporting characters; ending feels generic
