PLANE

When the start of the year blues hit, there’s something that always helps ease the pain – a brand new action-blockbuster. Imaginatively titled Plane, this story follows a plane ride from hell. When he’s forced to take on-board a prisoner onto his commercial flight, pilot Gerard Butler’s day is about to get a whole lot worse. 

Not only that, but when the flight goes through a tropical storm, it has to make an emergency landing in a war-zone. Can he keep his passengers alive and escape? And can his new convict passenger (Luke Cage star Mike Colter) actually help him out? Plane is brash, bold and a whole lot of fun. It’s a big action film that is exactly what we need to start the year off on the front-foot. Full of gunfights, explosions and plenty of carnage, this is one Plane that has arrived on-time to banish our January-blues for good.
