Trailer: Non-Stop

See what happens when you put Liam Neeson on a plane? Non-Stop re-teams the 61-year-old Taken star with his Unknown director Jaume Collet-Serra for a mid-air mishmash of anonymous text messages, ransom demands, passengers getting knocked off and Neeson getting framed for all of the above. The trailer doesn't really leave much to the imagination, and the story feels stitched from a bunch of other terror-in-the-skies-type thrillers, but damn if I don't want to see Neeson kick up a storm at 40,000 ft!

Trailer: Captain Phillips

Until this popped up on my feeds this morning I had no clue Paul Greengrass had a new movie coming out, let alone one starring Tom Hanks sporting a hilarious Boston accent in a true story about a freighter hijacked by Somalian pirates?? For the most part I'm on board with Greengrass (the Bourne movies, United 93), but something about this project makes me giggle... that title, Captain Phillips... Hanks' accent and goatee... could this be Greengrass' Under Siege?
