In the white-knuckle action movie PLANE, pilot Brodie Torrance (Gerard Butler) saves his passengers from a lightning strike by making a risky landing on a war-torn island -- only to find that surviving the landing was just the beginning. When most of the passengers are taken hostage by dangerous rebels, the only person Torrance can count on for help is Louis Gaspare (Mike Colter), an accused murderer who was being transported by the FBI. In order to rescue the passengers, Torrance will need Gaspare's help, and will learn there's more to Gaspare than meets the eye.

Critics Consensus

Plane charts a standard action-adventure course with its cruising altitude just a few miles above Direct-to-Video -- but with Gerard Butler in the cockpit, thriller enthusiasts will still find this a fun flight.

Audience Says

Check your critical thinking at the gate: The plot's preposterous and loaded with entertaining action, making Plane plenty of good old-fashioned fun.

But Plane is stifled by just how ordinary it is, and how closely it hews to the standard tropes of action films with longer, more descriptive -- yet less ridiculous -- titles.

Even by Butler’s B-list standards, this is borderline inept.

It may be big, brawling and somewhat inelegant in approach, but this Gerard Butler vehicle is an aviation fuel-powered good time.

3.5/5

For those who enjoy movies about airplanes, action stories, and journeys into the unknown, Plane delivers on its promise. A film full of suspense, good fights, and creative resolutions make this a must-see. [Full Review in Spanish]

Plane is a serviceable and even enjoyable action movie that’s easy to understand and even easier to digest if you can suspend your disbelief – and trust me you’ll need to.

Like a video game with too many cutscenes, “Plane” operates in spurts of action, giving the audience a little fun before suddenly going dormant in the interim.
