Flight Risk 4K 2025

The film tells about a Marshals Service employee who is tasked with delivering a key witness in the case of a mafia boss. For the flight the heroine hires a private pilot (Mark Wahlberg), who turns out to be a hired killer.

I must say that I am a big fan of movies with Mark Wahlberg, and at the very beginning of the picture, I must admit, I was upset to see his already familiar image: the image of an eternally smiling and constantly chewing gum chatterer.

But after the first third of the tape actor as a click changes and turns into a complete psychopath. Mark's game not only surprised me, but also confused me. On the one hand, I have never seen such a Wahlberg, on the other - he is clearly over the top.

But whatever the case, his acting is the most memorable thing in this picture.

I will allow myself to pay attention to the wording: not a bright or bright spot in the picture, but just memorable. Since there is nothing else to look at.

In everything else the movie is covered with stamps and some absurdity of what is happening.

The action of the whole picture takes place in the cabin of a tiny airplane. Hand-to-hand fights, which should create tension, quickly get bored and look comical.

The behavior of the witness from the first minutes of the film seems strange: he is scared of everything that can be scared, and then becomes courageous; he talks down to everyone, and then suddenly inappropriately and stupidly jokes.

Speaking of humor, the jokes of the characters and the comedy line as a whole I did not understand. What are they for? To blur the tension built up by the excess of comedy and begin to irritate the viewer? Well, if such a goal was set by director Mel Gibson, then he can be congratulated - he succeeded.

Script and dynamics of the picture also leave much to be desired. From the events in the cockpit of the airplane only fights and conversations that change each other.

If we remember a similar movie with Liam Neeson “Air Marshal”, which was released in 2014, and whose action also unfolds in an airplane cabin, we will see that “Flight Risk” loses it on all counts. Including special effects. And between these pictures a dozen years.

The director of visual effects obviously looked through his fingers at special effects and graphics, and I also looked through them. The landing of the plane looks cheap, and the scenery resembles static backdrops from the movies of the 90s.

The movie as a whole turned out to be plain and visually cheap. Neither spectacular nor ambitious. Mark Wahlberg fans will definitely watch it, but I highly recommend not spending money on the big screen.
