Stuart Shepard finds himself trapped in a phone booth, pinned down by an extortionist's sniper rifle. This is the story of a young resourceful heroine named Lisa Reisert who hates to fly, but the terror that awaits her on the night flight to Miami has nothing to do with a fear of flying! Upon boarding the plane, Lisa is trapped on a red-eye flight with a creepy villainous handsome and charming man by the name of Jackson Rippner, who's playing middle-man in the plot to assassinate a Homeland Security official.
He's got her father pinned down by a would-be killer, using that advantage to coerce Lisa into phoning the luxury resort where she works and arranging to move the target into a pre-set position. Scream was Wes Craven's last decent thriller.
Since then there has been nothing but an unbearable streak of Hollywood trash barely good enough for a blockbuster night, including the disappointment of the Scream sequels. Perhaps the genius and the craftsmanship devoted to the movie drained all the energy and creativity out of him, so that when it came time for supper, he had nothing to serve us but his own doo doo.
Finally, after who knows how many bad movies later, he gives us a delicious, ruthless, gripping, chilling suspense thriller with Red Eye. Rachel McAdams once again delivers an enjoyable performance as she plays a hotel manager who has the unfortunate connection with an important political figure and regular at her hotel. Then she meets Jackson Ripner Cillian Murphy, Batman Beyond at the airport, who she gets to know a little better after a delayed flight and a bay breeze.
What she doesn't know is he already knows her. And he also knows her father, who she will never see again if she fails to cooperate and meet Jackson's demands- to use her connections to set up her hotel regular for assassination. You're probably thinking this is nothing but your everyday thriller complete with predictability and chase scenes. Although this is a good old fashioned thriller, that's the beauty of it. No cheap make up. You feel the desperation and regret with every decision McAdams is forced to make and you actually care for her as you cheer her on every move she makes to find an escape from her claustrophobic position.
As always she delivers an entertaining and convincing performance. It's either her sweet face or her uncanny ability to sincerely cry, but you always seem to sympathize with her if her role demands it. Cillian Murphy on the other hand is naturally creepy looking, so even if the trailer didn't reveal it, his ultimate transition from charming stranger to merciless jackass isn't so surprising.
Perhaps it would have been more trippy to see a nice guy persona like Toby Maguire transforming into evil relentless madman. Nevertheless, Cillian Murphy, after his true identity is established, played the role so solidly you'd really want him to die, or at least get his ass kicked.
Don't overlook this feature. There are plenty of chalkboard screeching moments and heart jumpers that will keep your eyes on the screen instead of your watch like you would at Craven's recent pictures. If not for the you, do it for all the times you'll see your girlfriend, or boyfriend, or someone with popcorn jump and cling on to you. Wes finally gets it right. Aside from his trademark mastery in suspense, Red Eye is not without its humor as McAdams' replacement Cynthia at the front desk fumbles to keep the hotel in order.

First, I tend not to sleep very much when I'm flying overnight. I always say I will, but it just never happens. The times that I have stayed up after a red-eye have almost ruined my entire trip because I end up days here in the U.S. are few and precious, and I'd rather not have to use one of them for napping.
Your sleep position is only one component that you should consider when trying to get the most out of your flight. If you tend to get up frequently through the night to use the restroom, an aisle seat is a better option.
Red-eye flight survival guide
Avoid booking your seat at the front or back of the plane. The front of the plane is usually where families and their infants sit while the rear of the plane is where the flight attendants and restroom is. There's nothing worse than falling asleep only to be frequently woken up by restroom activity. You can also use a credit card to get an upgrade to business or first class.
You'll be able to get more comfortable for sleep. Now that you've booked the right seat, you'll need to pack some necessities. Travel pillows have come a long way and aren't so bulky anymore. I recommend a travel pillow and a large scarf or sweater if you tend to get cold.
I've invested in noise-canceling headphones to block out loud people and the general noises that come with the territory of an airplane.

If you have a pair, you'll definitely need to pack it. Though, if that's out of your budget, a pair of earplugs will suffice. You'll also want to block out all light. The flight time is of three to five hours, with typical departure around midnight, and arrival around dawn the next day. One example is at London Heathrow, where the last departures - leaving between and - are eastbound medium-haul services to destinations such as Moscow and Tel Aviv.
Russian airlines operate similarly to U. They last five to eight hours but due to the northerly latitude the flights can cross as many as eight time zones during this interval, drastically enlarging the time difference. The flights depart Moscow around 6 pm and arrive at the eastern cities around 6 am the next day. One of the current examples of red-eye flight is Aeroflot 's SU from Moscow to Magadan , departing Red-eye flights frequently connect West Coast cities to East Coast cities.
These typically depart the West Coast between 10 pm and 1 am, have a flight time of three to six hours but lose between two and four-and-a-half hours due to the time difference, and arrive on the East Coast between 5 am and 7 am. Red-eye flights also connect Hawaii or Alaska with West Coast mainland cities.
Furthermore, flights from Tokyo to Honolulu are considered red-eye flights, as the flights are usually overnight flights that are around six hours. In the s and s, red-eye flights were not possible, as most airports did not have the equipment necessary to work at night.
There are still airports that do not function after certain hours, or have curfews for noise reasons, limiting the number of airports from which red-eye flights can depart.
Joe Reisert Laura Johnson Red-eye flights also appeal to business travelers who want to avoid losing a work day in transit. The most likely reason is that the people without the red-eye effect were not looking directly at the camera or they were not in direct line with the camera's built-in flash. Perhaps the genius and the craftsmanship devoted to the movie drained all the energy and creativity out of him, so that when it came time for supper, he had nothing to serve us but his own doo doo. When light shines into the tapetum lucidum, it causes the pupil to "glow" in a wide variety of colors.
