Plane (2023)

Recall how every January or February, Liam Neeson started a tradition of releasing a corny action/thriller? Neeson looks to have left that company, allowing Gerard Butler free to enter via the open door. Butler exhibits a similar level of on-screen charisma to Neeson (but without the Oscar nomination) and demonstrates his ability to portray the heroic everyman role. He's stuck with a dull title (who could think of anything more catchy than Plane?) and a duller storyline, but that's standard fare for action movies with an '80s vibe. The largest error made by Lionsgate, the movie's distributor, was to release it in theaters as opposed to negotiating a contract with a major streaming service.

The plot of Plane resembles a cross between Rambo and Airport (a 1980 parody of the 1970s disaster-in-the-sky franchise Airport) (insofar as that was about a bloody jungle rescue). However, due to its length of almost 100 minutes, the film is only able to pay a Cliff Notes homage to its sources. Many subplots are presented before being abruptly abandoned or hurriedly wrapped up. The antagonist is more one-dimensional than is typical for this kind of movie, and the most of the supporting characters are entirely underdeveloped.

















Apart from that, Plane is a good example of Gerard Butler action with a side of Mike Colter, appealing to each actor's skills. Even though it's chaotic, pointless, and violent, it manages to make people laugh, whether on purpose or not. Despite having a bare-bones storyline that indulges in clichés and sentimentalism, it is professionally directed and exciting.
