Funny Moments

I don't know if it's just me, but Cillian was seriously making me crack up with laughter with his performance. I mean the character is horrible but...he was very funny too. Just his sarcasm and how he loses his temper with Lisa several times but tries to restrain it because they are in a crowded airplane is very amusing.

Some of my favorite funny moments:

1) When Lisa wakes up from being headbutted into unconsciousness, and Jack is reading from the Dr. Phil book to her and tells her he got her some 'aspirin'..."I need you coherent Leese" LOL, just the way Cillian played that scene was rather amusing, despite the fact that poor Lisa must have a raging headache.

2) "You call I call, dad wakes up puts on coffee never suspects a thing, life goes on."

3) "Thanks for the quickie"

4) "I don't think you're such an honest person, because I followed you for eight weeks now and I never once saw you order anything but a *beep* sea-breeze!" 

5)The scene where Jack's getting frustrated because the phones are out and the flight attendant offers them some peanuts and pretzels and he just snatches them from her in frustration. 

What are some of your favorite funny moments.

OK, at the time I thought it was a dumb line, but from this perspective . . . In the latter part of the movie, when Lisa fakes pain and leans forward, an exasperated Jackson asks, "What now?"

6. His fashionable scarf. Cillian Murphy looked like an androgynous male model. The fact that his seething with anger face resembles snarling didn't help. 😹
7. When he stares down that rude guy at the airport
8. When he takes the phone away from Lisa after the power goes out and says: 'Hello? Cynthia?'In a high pitched voice/his idea of what Lisa sounds like.
9. After Lisa called the police and he showed up. The horror movie chord and his classic high fashion snarl just makes that whole part hilarious.

1.The fact that he continues to read that passage even after Lisa stops paying him any attention.

Wildcattin'...Wildcattin'. Pow! I'm gonna go.
