Flightplan

I know that this isn't out until mid-september or something, but I just watched the trailer for Flightplan, the new Jodie Foster suspense film. Looks pretty cool, actually. I can always dig a new thriller. Has anyone else seen it?

Anything with Jodie Foster in has my eyes, looks like a good film from clips I have seen on television.

Foster is one of the most underrated actresses in Hollywood, IMHO. She's VERY picky with the roles that she chooses to play.

im not sure how i feel about this one yet. I like the cast i think sean bean is a great supporting guy.. and i like Peter Sarsgaard a lot. But i dont love the idea of an airplane thriller.

I think it looks horrible

Doesn't actually look too bad... kinda the same feel as Panic Room which I liked.

Foster is a great actress, and Sean Bean is always good... if a tad typecast...

Looks kind of silly if you ask me. So, ask me so I can tell you that.

So, how do you think it looks, Cine? 😄

Silly? Really?? I thinks its kinda nice after a summer of trite, boring BS that I feel like I've already seen a million times.

Such being said -- I don't understand claims that Sean Bean's already been typecast.

Looks like these plane-thriller movies will be the next trend. I agree with Cine. Looks pretty silly (or just not too interesting). I might see Red Eye, but this one doesn't look that good. The previews made it sound kind of cheesey as well... "One woman will take charge!" blah blah blah... Sean Bean's cool, but he's in like, every movie nowadays, so its not like that is something special about this film. As for Jodie Foster, I don't really like or dislike her. 😉

Foster is among Hollywood's finest -- she's one of the few actresses these days that THINKS before she choses a role.

Sean Bean used to be a delicacy, but he has been in a number of films this year. I, however, will never get sick of seeing him onscreen.

I guess we'll just have to see how the reviews are.

They just released this longer clip:

Watch that and maybe you will sing a different tune-- it looks pretty decent from this clip...

Yay! Jody Foster, finally doing her thing again! Might be good, have to wait and see..

bump..

Ok I got to see an early screening last night that a friend so graciously took me to, and this movie was even better than I thought it would be. Great one to see in the theater - the plane and the effects were so freakin cool. And I had not predicted the ending - so I was trying to figure it out the whole time and it had me pretty stumped actually. Def recommend.

You saw it already?!? Sooo lucky! I have a couple ideas for the ending, but don't know if any are actually correct. What does everyone think the ending is-- obviously no spoilers if you have already seen it! I want to be surprised.

really says alot when u have a transporter sig... 😛

9/10 Saw it today. It was really good.

Apparently, if you have seen

Spoiler:
The Lady Vanishes, directed by Alfred Hitchcock
then you can pretty much figure out Flight Plan. I'm sure I read in a magazine the film makers of Flight Plan admitting it's basically that film but on a plane and the story tweaked for younger audiences who would not have seen the film from the late 30's/early 40's.

Read a review that tore this movie to pieces wondering why Foster did the movie.

looks like another "forgotten".

The Forgotten + a plane - interest = Flightplan
