In this high-stakes suspense thriller, Mark Wahlberg plays a commercial pilot grappling with a troubled past transporting an Air Marshal (Michelle Dockery) accompanying a fugitive (Topher Grace) to trial.
As they cross the Alaskan wilderness, tensions soar and trust is tested, as not everyone on board is who they seem. With meticulously crafted action sequences and emotional depth unbecoming of your typical action flick, ‘Flight Risk’ is not just a thrill ride but a testament to Mel Gibson’s (back after a seven-year hiatus since ‘Hacksaw Ridge’) expertise in blending spectacle with substance.
