How can a little girl simply disappear from an airplane at 37,000 feet?
By asking this question and not cheating on the answer, "Flightplan"
delivers a frightening thriller with an airtight plot. It’s like a
classic Locked Room Murder, in which the killer could not possibly
enter or leave, but the victim is nevertheless dead. Such mysteries
always have solutions, and so does "Flightplan," but not one you will
easily anticipate. After the movie is over and you are on your way
home, some questions may occur to you, but the film proceeds with
implacable logic after establishing that the little girl does not seem
to be on board.
