THE RAW, NERVE-WRACKING TERROR OF LIAM NEESON’S ‘RETRIBUTION’ JOURNEY

One wrong move and it's all over. In Retribution, Liam Neeson is trapped in a deadly game where the clock is always ticking.

PHILIPPINES – Liam Neeson has made a career out of turning impossible danger into edge-of-your-seat escapes — and we’re still not done watching. From the heart-pumping action sequences in Taken to the white-knuckle thrills in Non-Stop, Neeson has kept us hooked, and Retribution is no different. In Retribution, an ordinary drive spirals into a high-speed death trap, forcing Neeson once again to outwit disaster with seconds to spare.

Neeson plays Matt Turner, a Berlin-based investment banker whose morning school run with his two children takes a terrifying turn. A mysterious voice calls his phone to reveal that a pressure-sensitive bomb has been planted under his seat. If anyone tries to get out of the car, it will detonate. Forced to follow the stranger's escalating demands while navigating the city, Matt must keep his children calm, evade police suspicion, and figure out the caller's true motive before time runs out.

WHY ‘MILLER’S GIRL’ WITH JENNA ORTEGA AND MARTIN FREEMAN IS A MUST-WATCH DESPITE THE CONTROVERSY

  

What happens when admiration turns into obsession and mentorship crosses a dangerous line? 

Miller’s Girl follows the unsettling dynamic between Cairo Sweet (Jenna Ortega), a gifted teenage writer, and her English teacher, Jonathan Miller (Martin Freeman). With her parents often away traveling the world, 18-year-old Cairo is left to her devices living in a big mansion with only literature to keep her company.

PHILIPPINES – Cairo ends up taking Miller’s creative writing class, and the two have an instant intellectual connection. She begins to blossom creatively under his mentorship, and he finds joy in spending time with her, rather than his emotionally unavailable wife, Beatrice. But almost too quickly, the line between inspiration and intimacy begins to blur between teacher and student, and with it comes devastating consequences.

What begins as a story about talent and mentorship slowly spirals into an emotional tug-of-war filled with manipulation, desire, blurred boundaries, and the fallout of choices no one is ready to claim responsibility for.
