Josh Hartnett wins the gold medal for killing hitmen on a plane

An airplane is an interesting place to set the scene. thrillers with echoes of Hitchcock's railwayAlarm on the express. In Fight or flightHowever, there isn't much intrigue, but rather an action spectacle so drenched in humorous violence that it resembles a bloodthirsty version of the Road Runner cartoon more than a spy thriller. Its protagonist is a disgraced agent who must survive a flight aboard which dozens of hitmen have boarded. His adventures end up resembling an Olympic Games of creative executions.

Fight or flight It is designed from escapism (all contact with reality seems accidental) and referential gluttony. It includes post-John Wick more openly ridiculous and juggling, captured with a visual style that is somewhat vulgar and at the same time pleasantly un-gimmicky, perhaps because the production lacks the logistical muscle to overwhelm: this is not Mission: Impossible, not even the Non-stop of Collet-SerraEverything seems different thriller of gunslingers with a minimal plot that is destined to disappear within the catalogs of online platforms, a version low cost of recent works such as Bullet train. However, those responsible for it show a sense of play and grotesque comedy that can evoke the most Martian imitations of early Tarantino. If the viewer accepts the implausibility and general irrationality, they can find a mascletá festive and agonizing in which humor and tension coexist meritoriously.
