Matt Turner (Liam Neeson) is a successful Berlin based American businessman juggling a booming financial career with family responsibility. Driving his kids to school one morning, Matt receives a phone call from a mysterious voice: there's a bomb under his seat that will detonate unless he completes a specific series of tasks, and fast. Trapped in their car in a high-speed chase across the city, Matt must follow the stranger's increasingly dangerous instructions in a race against time to protect his family and solve the mystery that plays out over the course of one day.

Banker Matt Turner finds out he has a bomb in his car and if he doesn't do what an unknown voice on the phone asks, he'll go up in smoke. And maybe he should do it to avoid making the audience suffer. Death Ride is a silly B-movie that is artificially stretched out and that shouldn't be longer than ninety minutes. It lacks suspense and ideas, and is predictable from beginning to end, and even annoying in how uninteresting it is. Liam Neeson has probably never made a worse action thriller.

An ordinary thriller. A family father, a bomb in the car, Berlin in the early morning rush. Where is the problem? Liam Neeson is already over seventy, and he needs something completely different at this stage of his career. After all, fifty-year-old Wotan Wilke Möhring in Don't. Get. Out! (2018) makes much more sense in the same role.
