In Flight

We have watched plenty of horrible movies in our lifetime but this one takes the prize! We kept watching thinking, "it has to get better, there must be some plot twist coming any second" only to be completely dumbfounded by the end. We are dumber for having wasted 2 hours of our life. Watch at your own risk of wasting money and time. We can't imagine who would ever recommend such a horrible movie. The acting was less than low budget. My husband actually said, "I could've produced, directed, and acted better than these clowns!" Again, we looked at each other and said, "worst movie we ever watched!"

There's no way to even include spoilers because nothing happened. I could tell what the ending was before the half hour mark and usually I'm impressed by that feat but this time I was disappointed because I guessed the ending and the movie decided it didn't want to elaborate. There's no payoff, no explanation, no reason, and it's a shame because the premise was intriguing. Good job not writing a story. The reviews here praising anything about the finished product is fabricated.

While I had indeed never heard about this 2024 thriller, prior to stumbling upon it here in 2025, I must admit that the movie's synopsis did actually sound interesting. And with it being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give it a fair chance.

Writers John Ierardi and Drew McAnany put together a script and storyline that had potential, though I have to say that the narrative was struggling with the slow pacing. There wasn't much of anything interesting or thrilling happening throughout the course of the movie, and that made sitting through "In Flight" quite an ordeal. And it made zero sense that there would be so few passengers on an overseas flight. That is not really how commercial airlines operate. So that was pretty bad writing.

I was actually not familiar with a single actor or actress on the cast list, which actually was a nice thing, as I do enjoy watching new and unfamiliar talents on the screen. The acting performances in the movie were fair.

There are far better thrillers out there in the same ilk as "In Flight", say "Red Eye" from 2005 for example.

"In Flight" was a difficult movie to sit through, and it most certainly is not a movie that will grace my screen a second time. Would I recommend you to sit down and watch "In Flight"? Nope.

My rating of director Bo Youngblood's 2024 thriller "In Flight" lands on a very generous three out of ten stars.

The movie was a bit jumbled, and never quite understood where the movie was going. I wish there was more to the movie as far as explaining what was happening during the movie. The idea was good, but left more contusion. The acting wasn't bad, which is why the movie was easy to get through, and the story line left enough to keep a person watching to see what the outcome was going to be.

This movie is something I would recommend to a person, if that person were asking for a somewhat decent movie to keep them occupied for an hour and a half. Is this a must see movie? Not by any means, but again it does enough.

I so wanted to enjoy this film. The concept seemed interesting, and I really enjoyed Tiffany Smith. She's an actress with a lot of charisma and beauty. I can almost guarantee that the script of this project seemed much better than the eventual result, and I don't begrudge anyone who had a part in making this film. It was a gallant effort. But after the first twenty minutes, I realized that the delivery didn't measure up to the idea. The protagonist, Claire, made increasingly illogical decisions meant to advance the story, but ended up betraying her supposed intelligence and therefore undermining the rationale of the ending. The direction was weird. Objects--notes, for example, meant to give us clues, were out of focus. In fact, focus seemed to be the director's (or the cinematographer's) challenge throughout. I can only assume that shooting out of focus was a stylistic choice meant to communicate the mystery of the situation. But it didn't work. In the hands of another director, this movie might have worked. In this instance, unfortunately, this was a missed opportunity.
