Plane (2023) - IMDb

It may be big, brawling and somewhat inelegant in approach, but this Gerard Butler vehicle is an aviation fuel-powered good time.However, in May 2021, Lionsgate re-acquired the rights to The Plane, in what Andreas Wiseman from Deadline Hollywood described as a "case of high-profile Hollywood volleyball. Photograph: Lionsgate Gerard Butler, centre, with Daniella Pineda and Yoson An in the ‘punchy’ Plane. He dispatches a private military outfit to rescue the passengers, as the authorities are unwilling to send troops into the rebel-controlled island. But Plane is able to fly above its generic ground by making the most of its actors and inherently tension-rich premise.

Among the passengers is fugitive homicide suspect Louis Gaspare, who is accompanied by an RCMP/GRC officer en route to Canada. Butler plays Captain Brodie Torrance, a former RAF pilot now flying commercial routes in South East Asia. Richet uses almost exclusively handheld camerawork for this film, and I have mixed feelings on that. This trip is shaping up to be a little different: it’s New Year’s Eve, and if all goes to plan, Brodie will be reunited with his daughter at the end of it. Although I probably won't be watching it again and will likely forget about it soon, this is a surprisingly more-than-functional action flick that is certainly worth a watch for escapist entertainment.Padilla's criticism was supported by fellow senator Ronald dela Rosa and Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri, who argued the film could damage the country's tourism.

At the rebel hideout, Brodie and Louis kill the guards and sneak the passengers and crew onto a bus. But first there’s a whole lot of weather to push through and the little matter of a shackled prisoner, former French Foreign Legion operative Louis Gaspare (Mike Colter), who is being extradited to stand trial for murder. Plane is a 2023 American action thriller film directed by Jean-François Richet from a screenplay by Charles Cumming and J. Even though the plot is largely predictable and formulaic, I felt the white-knuckle tension of the brutal action and the entire unhinged hostage situation because the visual focus of the director is always on the people in this story and the fear they feel.

Scarsdale's group sets up a Barrett M82 anti-materiele rifle for increased firepower and together with Louis fight off Junmar's men. But Brodie (despite being shot in the leg during the shootout, earlier) is able to put the plane on full throttle, allowing it to take off safely and crush Junmar under the plane's wheels, killing him. Senator Robin Padilla noted that the film's bad image of the Philippines comes at a time when the country is trying to revive its tourism after the Covid-19 pandemic. As he is about to be executed, the rescue team arrives, inflicting heavy casualties on Junmar's men. On October 11, 2021, it was reported that filming was close to finishing and that Tony Goldwyn and Paul Ben-Victor would also star.
