Is the Red Eye worth watching?
My friend rented it and wants us to come over and watch it. But I have to make sure I don't miss House. Anyway, is it good for those who have seen it?

5. Red Eye is better than Transporter 2
But just barely.

It was a well-done, but pretty basic thriller style movie. Rachel MacAdams is good, as always. Being from Wes Craven, I was expecting something unexpected, some horrifying twist, but it was not there. Like I said, a basic, straightforward, but competently made thriller.

6. 80% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/red_eye/

Should be worth checking out at least.

7. Thanks for the link! It's got to be better than
Transporter 2. I haven't seen Transporter 1, but something gives me the feeling that doesn't matter too much!

12. It's only 80 minutes
Over before you know it.

Pretty standard psychological thriller stuff. Not great, not terrible.
