The Commuter - 疾速救援
The Commuter (疾速救援) is an 2018 film. The movie stars Liam Neeson. The supporting cast include Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, and Elizabeth McGovern.
Liam plays Michael MacCauley, a daily commuter to New York City. One day, he's given a choice to earn a lot of money if he can solve a train mystery. When he takes it as a joke, but finds that the movie is real, things get interesting. Figuratively, his hands are tied and he must now figure out the mystery before clues run out with each stop home. Can he solve the mystery and earn the money?
We've seen Liam Neeson transform in the last 10 years or so right in front of us. Neeson has been in big movies all his life, but he's still doing it now in his mid 60s. His mid 50s transformation into Taken form is that of legend. This movie takes that direction more or less, but on a commuter train. Neeson is awesome, I hope he keeps on going. Neeson is on 2-3 movies every year still. That's to be honored.
