Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

KissEnglishPasto ........................................................from Pasto,Colombia...Via: L.A. CA., CALI, Colombia & ORLANDO, FL If you are among the millions of people who enjoy films with Jodie Foster… We have good news!.... Ms. Foster really takes off in this entertaining cinematic offering in the sky! A good deal of time has passed since we saw her in Panic Room (2002), but for my taste, this FLIGHTPLAN proves itself as an even better vehicle to showcase her talent. The movie demonstrates similitude to a Hitchcock thriller from the golden age of Hollywood, both in style and in its storyline development. Guaranteed to keep you in respiratory crisis almost from start to finish! In the role of Kyle Pratt, aircraft engine engineer and mother of 6 year old Katerina, Foster shows tremendous range of nuanced emotion, in a performance that easily could have given her a fifth Oscar nomination. FLIGHTPLAN has a very smooth take-off, but does not take long to encounter serious turbulence.Shortly after boarding an international flight, Kyle falls asleep, with her daughter alongside her. Upon waking, she discovers that Katerina, apparently, has disappeared without leaving so much as the slightest trace! Progressively, Jody Foster shows us an entire catalog of emotions. Concern and nervousness, followed sequentially by frustration; anguish and despair; then confusion and guilt; which ultimately give way to stoic resignation and unsettling doubts about her own sanity. The primary secret of FIGHTPLAN's success is that it enables the viewer to experience some of these emotions simultaneously right along with its lead character.Unfortunately, there is one black hole in the skies of FLIGHTPLAN. It's the kind of vacuum that prevents a "good" movie from being an absolutely phenomenal one! Without flying into any spoilers by divulging anything specific as to the identity of the on board bad guy(s), I will share the following with you: The team responsible for creating FLIGHTPLAN, in an extremely odd and inexplicable decision, chose not to reveal the slightest clue as to any of the background, history, formation, training, experience, MOTIVATION (outside of the $$$), previous or present internal conflicts, mental state and developmental thought processes of the villain(s)! This lapse is even more striking when contrasted with the background provided for protagonist Jodie Foster's character, Kyle, whose personality is meticulously constructed, with deliberation and great attention to detail. Because of this, the bad guy(s) end-up projecting a kind of "Terminator-Light" image, seemingly lifted straight out of a comic book, thusly rendering the viewer totally indifferent to their intervention or plight in the film! The cast of FLIGHTPLAN, in general, submit solid and credible portrayals. Peter Sarsgaard, a veteran actor who has participated in numerous films, but who always has remained a bit under the radar in Hollywood, appears in a supporting role. His part is the most important one after Ms. Foster's. Sarsgaard's interpretation of a "Marshall" (a kind of national airways police) seems somewhat enigmatic and secretive.Bess Wohl, who plays daughter, Katerina, has not had much on-screen experience, but is competent in her role as innocent child victim. As the pilot, we have Sean Bean, in a refreshing change of pace role. Most certainly recognizable owing to his turns as villain in several high profile films. He is quite convincing as the crew chief who gradually loses patience with a passenger who proves to be simply too problematic.In 2005, few films managed to stay on top of box office for two consecutive weeks. This distinction is well-deserved in the case of FLIGHTPLAN, which was assigned a "PG -13" rating. It seems a great option for families with children over 8 or 9. For small kids, especially if they might feel anxious about a little girl forcibly abducted from her mother, do a pre-screening 7.5*....ENJOY/DISFRUTELA! Any comments , questions or observations, in English or Español, are most welcome!

joanofark-28225 I didn't see the whole movie. My husband went outside, and left the TV on. I was walking by, and happened to glance up, and saw the camera on a window of a house. Kinda got me interested, since it looked just like a cross, and well most windows have got the usual up and across kind of shapes in their windows. Now, I haven't seen the whole movie, so I don't know who's house it was. So as I will still looking at the window, the camera was slowly going from left to right. Now that first window I saw, was a set of windows. Each had crosses. Now as the camera moved, there came up another set of windows, with the crosses again. But, the last window came up. If anyone watched this movie before, then this would be obvious, because I'm assuming it was a horror movie, but the last window was not a set, it was only one, and there, right in front of my eyes...was an upside down cross in the last window. So, I'm wondering if this was intentional, did it have some meaning to the movie, or did I not really see that?

Rickting Flightplan follows a plane engineer (Jodie Foster) as her daughter goes missing on a flight. No-on remembers the daughter ever being on-board and things get so mysterious you will find yourself watching the whole film even if you hate because you just need to know what happened to the daughter. This kind of film is difficult to pull off, as setting a thriller in a claustrophobic setting with not all that many hiding places and no escape roots like a plane will usually go into ludicrous territory. Just look at Non-Stop. Thankfully, this just about manages to entertain its audience and if you don't focus on what's going on too much, you should have a decent time. Jodie Foster gives an excellent performance as the protagonist, and the other actors are on point as well. Flightplan boasts good direction, and the cinematography creates plenty of tension but it also visually appealing. A good visual style and good performances, as well as a mystery you will be trying hard to solve at the centre keep the film afloat.However, the film reminds me of a point made in Christopher Nolan's The Prestige. Do we really want to know the secret? Towards the end, finding out the mystery deflates the tension and the film remains entertaining but heads into generic territory. The film, on a whole, is implausible and relies suspends disbelief a little too far, but the actual resolution to the mystery is just a bit ordinary and doesn't quite live up to the build up. The cabin crew are too unsympathetic about the missing child, as are the passengers, with Sean Bean's captain being pretty much the only likable secondary character. The film takes itself a bit too seriously and this removes the fun from the film a bit. With the silly plot and lack of likable characters the film fails to lift itself above average, although it is quite frightening at times. Overall, this is a decent enough thriller with good performances and visuals. I love action and thriller movies so I could enjoy this easily but if you don't like these genres you may not get on so well with this.6/10

jc-osms The key to making a really good "mysterious disappearance" film, in my opinion, is how the story pans out after the "reveal". This Jodie Foster-starring feature is absolutely fine for the first two thirds as the mystery attendant on her daughter vanishing from the seat next to her while sleeping on an airbus flight, is carefully built up. I even liked the giveaway's nod to Hitchcock's "The Lady Vanishes" but after that, the film subsides to a ridiculously far-fetched extortion / hijacking plot and a madcap chase through the body of the plane before the predictable happy ending, or should that be landing takes place. I did admire the sense of claustrophobia created in the confines of the aircraft and there's no denying the piece as a whole is a fast-moving mystery-thriller. There's also a welcome caution against xenophobia as Foster initially suspects a pair of Arab passengers but the stereotypical responses of the passengers and crew to the as it turns out innocent men and later to Foster's disruption of their flight is greatly overstated. In fact the singling out of Foster's character by the baddies, which necessitates the pre-flight murder of her husband so that his coffin can be placed on the flight stretches credulity and credibility way beyond breaking point.Foster herself shows herself to be fit and athletic as she searches every nook and cranny of the plane seeking her daughter but otherwise doesn't to have demonstrate many emotions other than anxiety. Sean Bean, as the incredulous pilot trying to calm the situation, is probably the best of the rest.It really is very hard to take seriously a straight-faced thriller set on a plane when we've all seen the corny "Airport" films of the 70's and of course the spoof "Airplane" movies of the 80's. "Flightplan" doesn't manage to reclaim that territory but once you check your disbelief in the overhead locker, you can still sit back and enjoy this particular flight, making sure you stay awake of course.
