First I have to say I did enjoy "Red Eye" as one of those "No-Brainer" switch off, wind down and watch tv shows, the only thing that ruined it for me was the contrived plotline about D. C. Hanna Lee being setup as a spy, how did the people who were setting her up know she would be the police officer assigned to accompany Dr. Nolan to Beijing?
Apparently her superior officer (And long time Friend) chose her so unless he was in on it how would those seeking set her up as a spy have the time to forge passports and arrange for a hand off of luggage at the airport in order to set her up, this was a sub plot that is absolutely absurd...
Why would someone seek to set up D. C. Hanna Lee in the first place given that she apparently had a mediocre career as a police detective according to the script?
As I said I did enjoy this as one of those silly no-brainer guilty pleasures but it requires miraculous feats of suspension of disbelief as a storyline...
