Recent Netflix movie Continue is a gripping new thriller with a Christmas setting reminiscent of holiday action films like Die Hard, as well as Lian Neeson's leadership Non-stop. Continue stars Taron Egerton as a TSA agent who unwittingly becomes embroiled in a plot to smuggle a nerve agent through airport security and onto a plane. The action thriller sets up tense scenes between Egerton's Ethan and Jason Bateman's “The Traveler” as each tries to outwit the other, leading to Continuethe exciting final fight scene.
Continue It's also a great reminder to watch a 10-year-old Liam Neeson movie this is surprisingly similar. Non-stop is another action film that takes place on a plane with similar action and main characters, making it great to watch afterwards Continue. Both films are action-packed and use their casts to make the sequences of trying to find the villain even more exciting. Both films were also successful in their own way, with Non-stop grossing $222.8 million on a $50 million budget (via Mojo Box Office) and Continue commanding a strong 86% critical score on Rotten tomatoes.
Non-Stop is a perfect accompaniment to carry-on luggage watching
Non-stop and carry-on luggage make a perfect pair
After watching Continue 2014 Neeson film Non-stop is a perfect sequel because it almost works as an extension of the newer film, with slightly higher stakes and a more claustrophobic setting. Continue takes place primarily in an airport, with only the film's climax taking place on a plane, but Non-stop It mainly occurs during a flight. In truth, the premise of Non-stop actually makes sense as a sequence of Continue, as it sees Neeson's character, Bill Marks, trying to stop a bomb from exploding on a plane.
As the tension created in Continue as Ethan tries to locate and stop the Traveler, Non-stop makes use of similar emotions, as Bill tries to find the perpetrators of the blackmail and the bomb while on a moving plane bound for London. In the same way, Continue and Non-stop both were directed by Jaume Collet-Serra, so it makes sense that their styles are very similar. However, Non-stop is leaving Netflix at the end of December, so fans should take advantage of the partnership while they can.
Carry-On is a lot like a Liam Neeson action movie
Taron Egerton's character fits perfectly into the Liam Neeson-style action film
Continue it feels like a spiritual sequel to the Liam Neeson action film, and it's intentional. Far beyond just their shared director. Collet-Serra made four action thrillers with Neeson. It is natural that the protagonist of Continue is very similar to the characters played by Neeson in this director's other films. Collet-Serra and Neeson also worked together in 2011 Unknown2015 Run all nightand 2018 The traveler, doing Non-stop the second of their fruitful collaborations.
It turns out that Ethan and Bill have prior experience and knowledge that allows them to outsmart the bad guys, making for a very fun watch.
In addition to having the same creative mind behind the camera, the characters in Bill Marks and Ethan Kopek themselves are quite similar in personality and skills. Both men are just trying to live their days and do their jobs when they are thrust into the role of heroes. When their families are threatened, they will both do anything to save them and as many other innocent people as possible. Additionally, Ethan and Bill have prior experience and knowledge that allows them to outsmart the bad guys, making for a very fun watch.
Carry-On 2 should cast Liam Neeson
Neeson may change his usual role in Carry-On 2
Egerton expressed interest in returning for a Continue sequel already, as long as the plot is creative and happens organically. If Transport 2 happens, Neeson should appear, marking yet another collaboration between the director (who would also return) and the actor. However, since the end of Continue shows that Ethan has finally become a police officer like he always dreamed of, the best way to embody Neeson could be as a villain, creating something more original for this collaboration.
In contrast to his other roles where, even though he's morally gray, the audience wants to root for him, casting Neeson as an out-and-out villain is the perfect way to counter his typical action characters. Transport 2 could continue delving into the exciting aspects of Ethan's character while adding new stakes with his growing family and a very compelling villain in Liam Neeson that is different from his usual roles. It should also be expected by the public when ContinueThe ending of is set up so neatly to continue the story in the future.
