Flight Plan Brief Synopsis:
Flying at 40,000 feet in a cavernous, state-of-the-art 474 aircraft, Kyle Pratt (Foster) faces every mother’s worst nightmare when her six year-old daughter, Julia, vanishes without a trace mid-flight from Berlin to New York. Already emotionally devastated by the unexpected death of her husband, Kyle desperately struggles to prove her sanity to the disbelieving flight crew and passengers while facing the very real possibility that she may be losing her mind. While neither Captain Rich (Bean), nor Air Marshal Gene Carson (Sarsgaard) want to doubt the bereaved widow, all evidence indicates that her daughter was never on board resulting in paranoia and doubt among the passengers and crew of the plane.
So now you know! Very good. Plenty of twists and turns, cunningly confined onboard an aircraft – which offers something different. Jodie Foster seems to grow younger as the film progresses, and the grave digger from Garden State (Sarsgaard) proves a very able co-star. Plenty in this to leave you second guessing and frequently changing your opinion on what is happening, what is going to happen…
