its worth a watch. the film is a little disjointed but they manage to 'land the plane' (not a spoiler, an expression) in the third act. It was meant to be a background film while i was doing something else but it managed to hold my attention.

Jaume Collet-Serra is becoming one of the most reliable genre directors in Hollywood today. His latest film, The Commuter, is another solid thriller with an always watchable Liam Neeson playing yet another everyman protagonist caught up in a sinister conspiracy while on his daily commute by train. The movie makes good use of the confined spaces onboard a passenger train. The third act is pretty silly but like in other films by Collet-Serra, it's earned it.

soldiers end up casualties.
Do you want to know what I still remember from “The Commuter“? Well, actually it’s not that much anymore. It’s that kind of movie. Only the opening scene where you see Michael MacCauley (Liam Neeson) performing his recurring morning ritual. From getting up to the ride to the metro station with his wife. A unique piece of film? Or is it a copy of the opening scene from “Rebirth” where you see the protagonist performing his daily morning activities as well? A way to demonstrate the daily grind of working people. Only Michael’s daily pattern is being discontinued in a rather harsh way when he’s being fired at work, where …
