While there's a place for high-octane dumb fun, Flight Risk dives straight into unpleasant camp without a parachute.

Kat Sachs Chicago Reader The plot and runtime had me hoping it’d be a throwaway of the Edgar G. Ulmer variety, but alas, it’s kind of a mess, made worse by the Mark Wahlberg character’s indiscriminate sadism. Feb 13, 2025 Full Review Christy Lemire FilmWeek (LAist) A really cool idea, but the dialogue is terrible. I hate this script so much... There's a crassness that is really unnecessary. Feb 11, 2025 Full Review Ian Freer Empire Magazine It won’t win any awards for originality but Flight Risk is a fun, unpretentious, tight 91 minutes — especially if you’ve always jonesed to see Downton Abbey’s Lady Mary cream someone with a fire extinguisher. Rated: 3/5 Feb 4, 2025 Full Review Michael Nordine Movie Brief Gibson does eventually land the plane in one piece, but the ride is so bumpy that it’s hard to imagine any passengers clapping. May 16, 2025 Full Review Mini Anthikad-Chhibber The Hindu Mark Wahlberg cruises along on silly thrills May 16, 2025 Full Review Matt Hudson Bloody Awesome Movie Podcast When the most interesting aspect is Mark Wahlberg's hairstyle choice, you know you're on a hiding to nothing. Convoluted, unexciting, and painfully mediocre May 8, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/10/25 Full Review Susan Sorry Mark, it was hard to like this one. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 04/07/25 Full Review Laura L It was okay, relatively intense. Decently acted.
