Cillian Murphy recently hadsome choice wordsfor his filmRed Eye(watch itHERE), a Wes Craven-directed thriller that was released back in 2005. But he wasn’t entirely negative. So that got me thinking: IsRed Eyea good film? Or is it more in the so bad it’s good category? I personally sawRed Eyein theaters and have always had a soft spot for it. But ifOppenheimer‘s own Cillian Murphy has an issue with it, maybe it’s worth a second gander. So let’s see whether it’s good, bad, or somewhere in between as we revisitRed Eyein the video embedded above!
Scripted by Carl Ellsworth, who crafted the story with Dan Foos,Red Eyehas the following synopsis:In the wake of her grandmother’s funeral, hotel manager Lisa Reisert is waiting to fly back home when she meets charming Jackson Rippner at check-in. She thinks it luck that they’re seated together on the plane, but soon learns otherwise. Jackson hopes to assassinate the head of Homeland Security, but to do so, he needs Lisa to reassign the official’s room number at her hotel. As insurance, Jackson has kidnapped Lisa’s father.
