'Retribution' movie review: Liam Neeson stars in 'Phone Booth' in a car
Still, the high-concept premise of Retribution is engaging enough to keep you hooked for most of the running time, and while the movie may not warrant a trip to the cinema, this is perfect fare for some late-night streaming. If Die Hard on a bus became Speed, then this one is Speed in an SUV. Or perhaps more appropriately, given its running conversation with the bomber, Phone Booth in a car.
