Reviews:

Neeson throwing himself about the train-setting is engaging enough to hold your attention for about an hour. Unfortunately, _The Commuter_ is an hour and fortyfive minutes long.

_Final rating:★★½ – Had a lot that appealed to me, didn’t quite work as a whole._

_It’s as dull as my usual ride in a usual train going home._

Nothing new from Neeson, in a good way (and a bad way).
If you’ve seen one Neeson film, you’ve probably seen them all. Despite having already mastered the art of playing the grizzled, independant tough-guy, Neeson is back with The Commuter, in which he plays an unsuspecting … well … commuter, who is drawn into a criminal conspiracy which could kill everyone on-board.

It’s a familiar sounding plot, but it’s one that Neeson excels in, in fact, he may be too good at it by now. With all that said, The Commuter, much like Taken, Taken 2, Taken 3, Non-Stop, A Walk Among the Tombstones, Run All Night and Schindlers List, is another fun Neeson film which you’ll probably enjoy much more than you’d be willing to admit.

“Non Stop” on rails: thoroughly familiar yet thoroughly enjoyable
“The Commuter” (2018 release; 103 min.) brings the story of Michael McCauley. As the movie opens, we get to know Micheal as he goes about his daily routine of waking up at 6 am and getting ready to take the commuter train in Manhattan, where he works at an insurance company. Then one day, out of the blue, Michael is fired from his job, for no apparent reason and just as he needs the money to pay for his son’s expensive college. Afterwards he commiserates with a buddy (and that’s when we find out Michael used to be a NYC cop). On his commute train ride home, Michael gets approached by a mysterious woman who makes him an offer: identify the person who doesn’t belong on the train, and get $100,000 in return. She tells him there is a $25,000 upfront payment in the bathroom. When Michael goes to check there, he can’t believe it but yes, there’s the money. He decides to take it. It’s not long before strange things start to happen… At this point we’re less than 15 min. into the movie, but to tell you more of the plot would spoil your viewing experience, you’ll just have to see for yourself how it all plays out.

Couple of comments: this is, if I’m counting right, the 4th collaboration between Spanish director Jaume Collet-Serra and lead actor Liam Neeson, after “Unknown”, “Non Stop”, and “Run All Night”. (Collet-Serra also directed the excellent shark-drama “The Shallows”.) Just looking at these prior films, you know EXACTLY what you are signing up for if you decide to check out “The Commuter”. In fact, this movie could be called “Non Stop on Rails”. Just like that earlier movie playing out on the one air flight, much of “The Commuter” plays out on the one commuter train ride back to suburban NYC. If this sounds like like a negative, you might be wrong, as I was on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what the heck was going on (in the best possible way). One-time ‘serious’ actor Liam Neeson’s transformation into one of the best and most reliable action movie stars is absolutely remarkable. He brings a certain weight and charisma into these roles that not a lot of action movie stars have. Keep an eye out for an all-too-rare sighting of Elizabeth McGovern (as Neeson’swife). Sam Neil has a small role as the Police Captain. Vera Farmiga is her usual great in the small role of the mysterious woman. But in the end, this is of course the Liam Neeson show all the way.

“The Commuter” opened wide this weekend. The Friday early evening screening where I saw this at was not attended very well, and surely the inclement weather here in Cincinnati was a large factor in that. I was in the mood for something to entertain me, and “The Commuter” was just what the doctor ordered: thoroughly familiar, yet thoroughly enjoyable too. If you are a fan of Liam Neeson’s action movies, you cannot go wrong with this one. “The Commuter” is a WINNER.
