Ep1069: Flight Risk (2025) - Live Round Table Review
Critics everywhere are coming down with acute air sickness, thanks to Mel Gibson's latest film, Flight Risk. But at least two of Earth's Mightiest Critics think it's one of the best moviegoing experiences they've had in years!
There's a major caveat, of course: Ian and David saw the movie in 4DX (yeah, that setup where they shake your chair and hurl smoke and water at you)!
The film centers on a US Marshal (Michelle Dockery) who must transport a mob case witness (Topher Grace) to a Seattle courthouse--by way of a rickety Cessna flying over the snowy Alaskan wilderness. Their pilot (Mark Wahlberg) just happens to be a mob assassin and, well, things go south up north!
