Maintains Decent Amount of Suspense If One Doesn't Take It All Too Seriously
23 November 2016
Pierce Brosnan stars here as Mike Regan, owner of an aviation company that needs a proposed public offering to be successful so it can stay afloat financially. During a presentation of a key company mobile app that will enable people to hire private and corporate jets, Mike is impressed with the tech skills of a temp employed there, and wants to hire him full-time.

However, it will soon become apparent that the temp (James Frecheville) is a most disturbed lunatic, and is intent on ruining Mike's personal and business life, as well of that of Mike's wife (Anna Friel) and daughter (Stefanie Scott). All of the lead actors here give solid performances, and the fine actor Michael Nyqvist is excellent in a supporting role.

All in all, there's a decent amount of tension and suspense maintained in the film, but it is marred somewhat by some highly incredulous plot elements and what I thought was a rather ridiculous ending. For me, it all added up to a fairly decent watch if one doesn't take it all too seriously.
