Flightplan (2005)
This simply wouldn’t have worked without Jodie Foster as the lead. She saves this film with her performance as the desperate grieving mother in this intense locked room thriller. Because the script is a bit of mess to say the least. It starts off reasonably well and I was generally along for the entire ride, even though the plot becomes overly convoluted in the second half. But as soon as the movie is over, it also became apparent how ludicrous some of the plot points are and too many things doesn’t make logical sense.
Rating: 3.5
