Cillian Murphy Shittalks "Red Eye" (again)
Cillian Murphy on #RedEye: “I love Rachel McAdams and we had fun making it. But I don’t think it’s a good movie. It’s a good B movie.”
McAdams says "the nicest people sometimes make the best villains,” and that's true of Murphy.https://t.co/dK1iV2K3w7 pic.twitter.com/GbQrWSUVmn

- “Oh, I know, it’s crazy!” Murphy said of the enduring love “Red Eye” continues to have. “I think it’s the duality of it. It’s why I wanted to play it. That two thing. The nice guy and the bad guy in one. The only reason it appealed to me is you could do that…that turn, you know?”
- Murphy added, “I love Rachel McAdams and we had fun making it. But I don’t think it’s a good movie. It’s a good B movie.”
- Murphy previously knocked “Red Eye” during a 2021 interview with Uproxx in which he said: “When I was a younger actor, I was really, really hard on everything that I was in. I hated watching myself. I hated looking at myself on screen. I remember when I saw it was like ‘Oh, that’s kind of a schlocky B movie.’ Rachel McAdams is excellent in it. But I didn’t think I gave a very nuanced performance in it. But, listen, if people love the movie then that’s great. I’m pleased with that. I’m less hard on myself now when I look at stuff. I’m less hypercritical of my work. But that’s probably a hangover from that to be honest.”
