In this writer’s mind, any Liam Neeson movie from the 2010s is underrated, but The Commuter from 2018 particularly deserves some love and attention. The plot is B-movie heaven: overworked everyman Michael MacCauley (Neeson) is commuting home from Grand Central Terminal when a mysterious woman, Joanna (Vera Farmiga), asks him to find a missing item. The prize? $100,000. But Michael soon learns that this offer isn’t what it seems, and he’s soon fighting bad guys on the speeding train that threatens to crash and kill everyone on board.
