Spoilers. Sorry.
The story starts interesting and Idris is certainly very watchable actor... but the big question of "what's the big reveal" and "who is this guy, really" just never happen. He does things that a normal man would never do - and in the end, turns out to be "just some guy" and the whole plot revolves around... short selling an airline? It's not letting go of bad guys, it's not ransom for the aircraft - it's short selling. And the passengers do the most irrational things, particularly in light of 9/11. So much makes so little sense that even with Idris, my mind really started drifting, hoping for better writing.
I kept waiting for the "Kezer Suze" moment in the end and it's just... a "The End".
Very frustrating.
