Title: OK, entertaining one-timer/rental
Review: I saw "Red Eye" at the theater, namely because it had Cillian Murphy, and I had just seen "Batman Begins," in which he plays Scarecrow. I figured, any movie with Murphy playing the creepy villain he has played before would be worth seeing.And Red Eye was an entertaining slice of B-movie type cheese, held together with the performances of its lead actors -- Murphy and Rachel McAdams. (hey, Murphy and McAdams).The setup was better than the eventual conclusion, but it was a nice two-hour diversion. And if you haven't seen it yet, it's probably worth a rental, not a purchase. The movie doesn't have enough substance/depth to it to warrant a deeper look. There's really nothing you can't grasp on a first viewing, and under greater scrutiny, there's at least one glaring plothole.Unless either Murphy or McAdams are your favorite actors, you can pass up on buying "Red Eye."
