Fight or Flight Review

 

This review is for those of you who like action movies and don't mind swearing and bloody gore, action, and fighting.  In no way would I recommend it for children, but if you like action, this is the film to see.  

Fight or Flight, what can I say about it?  It says the producers of John Wick.  Well, it sure is.  

Josh Hartnett is back!  Where has he been?  This just might be the film to get him back on track like Liam Neeson.  This gruesome action film is awesome.  Non-stop action for the duration of the film.  Hartnett plays a down-on-his-luck former Secret Service agent sent to find a criminal on a plane and bring them back to the United States.  The problem is, which Hartnett finds out rather quickly, is that so are 70 or 80 others on the plane, but they don't want to arrest her; they want to kill her. So he needs to protect his asset at any cost.

The film has a few redeeming qualities. The asset Harnett is trying to protect is fighting evil around the world by combating it.  Such as shutting down factories that use child labor and are treated like slaves.  So the asset blows it up. 

This part of the film is the ethics for the asset and the agent to do what is right, no matter the cost.  They put their morals on the line to protect those who can't help themselves.   That is what Christ would want us to do, even if it costs us everything.  

This feels like a welcome home for Hartnett.   It may be a lower-budget film for him, but this might be the film to get him back on track to be a bigger star in Hollywood.  I am recommending it for those of you who are not bothered by violence or swearing in films.  It is a great surprise for me, and hopefully a big comeback for Hartnett.

It is available to watch on Paramount+ with Showtime.  You can also purchase it at Walmart for about 13 dollars.  I watched it on Paramount Plus because I saw it on sale at Walmart.  Enjoy it anyway you can.
