Mark Wahlberg og Mel Gibson giver os et B-movie eventyr med "Flight Risk"! Er det skrammel eller skatte? Læs med!
I en tid hvor Hollywood har skudt mange blockbuster film ud, er det nogen gange de mindre forudsigelige titler, der stråler. Dette er tilfældet med "Flight Risk" - en actionthriller instrueret af ingen ringere end Mel Gibson og med Mark Wahlberg i hovedrollen. Filmen, der åbnede som nummer 1 i en usædvanligt stille weekend, har allerede seksscenerne fri til at flyve ind i biografens hjerter, selvom kritikerne ikke var mildere i deres dom. Selvom både anmeldere og publikum har haft en blandet modtagelse, synes "Flight Risk" alligevel at flyve over konkurrenterne på kasseapparaterne.
Mark Wahlberg, der tidligere har arbejdet sammen med Gibson, bringer en livlig energi til sin rolle, som den heroiske pilot, der trækker os med på en rutsjebanetur gennem himlen. Mel Gibson har formået at balancere dramatik og humor, hvilket giver publikum en underholdende oplevelse - andet ikke, så gør den uhæmmede aktion just dette! Filmen har opnået $950.000 i previews og forventes at ramme $11 millioner i åbningen, hvilket indikerer, at selv når kritikken er af blandet karakter, er der altid en skare, der er ivrig efter at se, hvad der sker i luften.
Kritikere har kaldt "Flight Risk" for en B-film med alle de rigtige ingredienser for underholdning – og måske er det netop det, der tiltaler publikum. Filmen byder på en kombination af latter og adrenalin, hvor Wahlbergs overdimensionerede rolle som pilot redder Dockerys karakter fra uheld. Målgruppen for filmen syntes at være folk, der elsker action og lidt skæve historier, og det vil ingen af dem blive skuffede over, når de ser "Flight Risk".
Selv med kritikken peger piloten i filmen - lidt ligesom virkeligheden - mod nye eventyr, og selv når vindene blæser imod, er der altid mulighed for at lande sikkert. Mel Gibson, i rollen som både instruktør og skaber, er kendt for at bringe kontrovers til bordet, og her bruger han sin energi til at skubbe grænserne for, hvad som en actionfilm kan være.
Vidste du forresten, at Mark Wahlberg og Mel Gibson har arbejdet sammen på tre film inden for de sidste otte år? Dette samarbejde ser ud til at blomstre, og vi kan kun håbe på flere underholdende projekter fra dygtige duo. Og som en sjov fact: Mel Gibson blev for nylig udnævnt af Donald Trump til "speciel ambassadør" til Hollywood, hvilket tilføjer endnu et lag af spænding til hans allerede farverige karriere.
