Absolutely loved the concept and the eerie feel throughout. Personally the langoliers themselves felt a bit too silly to be really afraid of and the buildup was much more effective than the actual depiction of them. I did sort of zone out when in the pilots POV a few times due to all the tech talk/plane jargon but other POVs were much more interesting. I felt genuinely bad when Nick died which surprised me as I didn't think I'd care as much as I did. The ending left me feeling good and surprisingly light.
