PlaneMovie is about fifteen minutes of fun buried deep in this Gerard Butler and Mike Colter-starring slog. Our review:
There are about fifteen minutes of fun buried deep in Jean-François Richet’s Plane, but the journey to get there is one that requires wading through a narrative slog that is largely devoid of any prevailing spark. Even though Gerard Butler and Mike Colter make for a solid duo who really try to give this film some life, almost everything else is working against them.
Begrudgingly, Torrance agrees that they will go on the predetermined route. Before all the passengers are then loaded onto the plane, we are introduced to Louis Gaspare , who is brought on in handcuffs as he is being extradited for a crime he committed. Again, Torrance is less than thrilled about this but just goes along with it in the hopes that the flight will be a smooth one. When they do take off, the plane is soon struck by lightning.
Such a premise is just sturdy enough that it is hard to dismiss Plane entirely. Many truly great action films have been built around far less and managed to make the most of it. Indeed, there are flashes of this potential when Louis picks up a hammer while on a stealth mission to the concluding shootout that embraces a macabre absurdity. While this makes for proper action fun, the road that it takes to get there puts a damper on the entire affair.
Take when Brodie first encounters one of the kidnappers while trying to send a message back to the airline. The fight is meant to be intentionally awkward and grounded with the men rolling around in an abandoned building. Yet, as the two struggle in a battle to the death, this starts to shift into being oddly tedious and stilted in how it is constructed. Both in terms of its stunts and how it is shot, it is all aggressively simplistic and banal.
