Critique of the film “High risk flight”: Mel Gibson, Michelle Dockery and Mark Wahlberg are facilitated

Mel Gibson’s new feature film, director, is not up to his ambitions.

Between Valiant heart (or Braveheart), The passion of Christ et Hacksaw RidgeMel Gibson, the filmmaker, has accustomed us to worked films. In comparison, this High -risk flightwhere humor dominates, may seem a little lazy, especially since the director surrounded himself with a solid distribution.

The story is classic, not to say agreed. Madolyn (Michelle Dockery), a Marshall, has the mandate to transport Winston (Topher Grace), a prisoner in reality informant. Their plane trip is provided by Daryl (Mark Wahlberg), a driver who turns out to be a dangerous opponent.

Filmed almost in real time, this High -risk flight 91 minutes is well punctuated enough for the spectator and the action movies to be comfortable. The dialogues are fun, Topher Grace practices a humor pincer-rire which suits him wonderfully, while Mark Wahlberg does in the overbidding of murderous madness, which also works very well. Michelle Dockery, whom we are used to seeing in vintage costume in the popular series Downton Abbey perfectly succeeds in his retraining as a main character, woman kick-ass Who knows how to make use of his fists.

Special effects – especially landscapes through the portholes of the small plane – leave something to be desired and seem to be the work of amateurs rather than experienced specialists. We can easily see that everything was shot in the studio with a lot of green screens, which singularly limits the pleasure that we take to see how it all will end.
