Flight Risk is getting so many bad reviews, so I was going in expecting to hate it, but after seeing it I have to say, I don't agree with the critics on this one. Not saying it's a masterpiece, but it was entertaining, and I was never bored.
Mel Gibson has a director, looks like he was channeling Alfred Hitchcock, making a thriller where it takes place in one area. But it's performances of the actors that makes it work, and has the suspense builds up, even when you know it's coming, but you're feeling when it slowly starts coming. Topher Grace is alright in some moments and some parts he goes over the top. Michelle Dockery is pretty strong also. Mark Wahlberg is incredibly menacing; he just has you on the edge of your seat.
