Editorial Review: Description: The suspense climbs to a fever pitch in FLIGHTPLAN on Blu-ray’s high definition disc. Dive into Hitchcock-like thrills as never before via this exhilarating new format. Flying at 40,000 feet in a state-of-the-art aircraft, Kyle Pratt’s (Jodie Foster) six-year-old daughter Julia vanishes without a trace. Or did she? No one on the plane believes Julia was ever onboard. Now Kyle, desperate and fighting for her sanity, can only count on her own wits to unravel the mystery and save her daughter. Feast your eyes on every nerve-racking scene in breathtaking 1080p, while enhanced audio stirs your senses. Ascend to unsurpassed levels of entertainment with Blu-ray™ High Definition. Amazon.com: Like a lot of stylishly persuasive thrillers, Flightplan is more fun to watch than it is to think about. There's much to admire in this hermetically sealed mystery, in which a propulsion engineer and grieving widow (Jodie Foster) takes her 6-year-old daughter (and a coffin containing her husband's body) on a transatlantic flight aboard a brand-new jumbo jet she helped design, and faces a mother's worst nightmare when her daughter (Marlene Lawston) goes missing. But how can that be? Is she delusional? Are the flight crew, the captain (Sean Bean) and a seemingly sympathetic sky marshal (Peter Sarsgaard) playing out some kind of conspiratorial abduction? In making his first English-language feature, German director Robert Schwentke milks the mother's dilemma for all it's worth, and Foster's intense yet subtly nuanced performance (which builds on a fair amount of post-9/11 paranoia) encompasses all the shifting emotions required to grab and hold your attention. Alas, this upgraded riff on Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes (not to mention Otto Preminger's Bunny Lake is Missing) is ultimately too preposterous to hold itself together. Flightplan gives us a dazzling tour of the jumbo jet's high-tech innards, and its suspense is intelligently maintained all the way through to a cathartic conclusion, but the plot-heavy mechanics break down under scrutiny. Your best bet is to fasten your seatbelt and enjoy the thrills on a purely emotional level--a strategy that worked equally well with Panic Room, Foster's previous thriller about a mother and daughter in peril. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating: - Amber Alert in the skyThis movie is something like a cross between The Twilight Zone & Alfred Hitchcock presents, with some 9/11 themes thrown in just for fun. There is a missing little girl on a huge double-decker passenger jet flying across the Atlantic. Or is there a missing girl? Therein lies the crux of the storyline. The DVD contains strong performances by Jodi Foster and Sean Bean. Foster is always a great actress, and the movie hinges on whether we can relate to her angst as a mother of ... Read More Rating: - Flightplan Full Screen Edition ReviewA suspense thriller about a grieving widow transporting her husband's body on a transatlantic flight with her 6 year old daughter in tow. Jodie Foster does a great job in this movie and is very convincing in her own, doubting her own sanity at times due to circumstances and what others consistently were telling her. It kept you guessing and was not a predictable plot. I'm not a big action fan, but I did like this one. It had a story to it, not just the same old crime/vengence theme. Tao ...

Foster's daughter mysteriously goes missing on the plane flight whilst Jodie Foster is sleeping, but when Foster reports her daughter as missing, there is no record of her ever being on the plane, throwing doubts on Foster's sanity.
