Flight Risk (2025) Movie Review! See Comments 👇🏻

Описание: #FlightRisk (2025): 5/10
Director: Mel Gibson
Runtime: 91mins
⠀
Seeing Mel Gibson’s name appear in the credits of Flight Risk may have been a surprise to many - it doesn’t feel like a Gibson film, and not in a good way. Topher Grace is former mobster accountant Winston, pressured into testifying against his ex-employer by U.S. Marshal Madolyn Harris (Michelle Dockery) - that’s if Madolyn and her team can get him to New York City unscathed.
⠀
Much of the film takes place on board a small chartered plane, with Winston and Madolyn being flown by Mark Wahlberg’s Daryl Booth, who is an extremely sketchy character from the get-go. Whilst there are some moments of tension, the film never really takes off, feeling more like a lower budget and fairly predictable streaming release, with a muddled tone.
⠀
Reportedly a “black-listed” Hollywood screenplay up until Mel Gibson’s decision to direct it in May 2023, Flight Risk attempts to add further meat to the bone by inserting a potential mole on the ground into the mix, with much of the discourse playing out over Madolyn’s satellite phone - of course, this proves ineffective as a result. Add to that Flight Risk’s sudden ending, and you’ve got yourself a fairly disappointing thriller.
