action

Air safety officer Bill Marks is on a flight from New York City to London . Shortly after take-off, he received a short message via the aircraft's internal network that a passenger would be killed every 20 minutes if 150 million US dollars were not transferred to an account. With the help of stewardess Nancy and passenger Jen Summers, who check the on-board cameras for possible cell phone use, Marks can apparently identify the second Air Marshal Hammond as a possible blackmailer. When Marks confronts him in the toilet, Hammond explains that he needs the money and then attacks Marks. In the scuffle that follows, Hammond tries to shoot Marks with his service weapon, but Marks breaks his neck. This is exactly when the 20 minutes expire. There is cocaine in Hammond's briefcase, which leads Marks to believe that it should look like the two flight attendants are doing something crooked together. When it turns out that Marks is the account holder, the aviation security authorities assume that Marks is the blackmailer, especially since he is getting rougher on the passengers. The mood of the passengers turns against Marks and soon they suspect him of being a kidnapper.

For an initially unknown cause, the captain and another passenger die. When the evidence confirms that Marks had taken control of the plane, it is reported as hijacked, diverted to Iceland and escorted by two Typhoon fighter jets . Meanwhile, media that can be received on the plane report on the hijacking of the plane by Bill Marks; it is mentioned that he is an alcoholic, possibly a member of the IRA, and mentally unstable since the death of his daughter. The interviewee of the aviation safety authority has long since passed his judgment and is no longer accessible to any argument. Marks finds a bomb hidden in the cocaine in Hammond's trunk. When he tries to tell the passengers about this, he is attacked by some. Only with the help of the passenger Tom Bowen can he speak freely and convince the passengers of his innocence.

However, he cannot defuse the bomb and decides to place it in the back of the aircraft and, in accordance with the regulations, to contain it with luggage as much as possible in order to divert the force of the explosion to the outside. The co-pilot, who is now in a conflict of conscience , decides - despite multiple warnings from the fighter jets - to follow Marks' instructions and to bring the plane to the ground, since an explosion of the bomb at 8,000 feet would not be as catastrophic as one Explosion at 20,000 feet. Through video footage taken by one of the passengers, Marks can identify one of the two kidnappers: It is Bowen. Bowen lost his father in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and blamed the US security forces , including the Air Marshals. His plan is to parachute with his accomplice and detonate the plane. Make the world think Marks blew up the machine. He not only wants to extort the money, but also ruin the reputation of all air marshals. With the help of the New York police officer Reilly, Marks finally manages to eliminate him and his accomplice. The plane was badly damaged by the bomb detonation, but it can land in Keflavik in Iceland without harming other people. Marks is now celebrated as a hero in the media. The interlocutor of the aviation safety authority apologizes meekly to him.

Reviews

The film received average to good reviews. On Rotten Tomatoes , 61% of 222 reviews are currently positive. In the IMDb film database , he has an average rating of 7.0 out of 10 points.

Patrick Seyboth gave the “Action Chamber Game Above the Clouds” 3 out of 5 stars in his review for epd Film : “With an illustrious ensemble […] the film sets in motion a game of changing suspicions that is somewhere between Whodunit patterns à la murder in the Orient Express , 9/11 motifs and rabid action scenes. Pedants may be annoyed that the plot is overconstructed to the point of absurdity - but in the end it is its nonchalance that makes NON-STOP so appealing. So dogged the main character, so casual the film. "

The film service ruled: “A claustrophobic thriller in which the ingenious opponent is always one step ahead. However, the staging gets tangled up in the undergrowth of an increasingly absurd plot that hooks the last remnant of the credibility of the already quite stereotyped characters. "

Cinema gave a rating of 100% and wrote: “Despite the staging like a chamber play - the action takes place almost exclusively on the plane - the film delivers a high level of tension. Sudden twists and turns ensure that you don't know who is behind the matter until the finale. And a touch of system criticism is interspersed in 'Non-Stop' when the assassin says: 'You promised us absolute security, but that was a lie. You can't do that. ' Conclusion: It hasn't been that exciting in the cinema for a long time. "
