Gerard Butler clearly has a taste for adrenaline-fueled flicks. You’ve got the heist film “Den of Thieves” and the gripping disaster drama “Greenland.” Most people might know the Scottish actor from the classic “Law Abiding Citizen,” but there are a surprising number of action movies you might have missed in his filmography over the years, one being the intense survival thriller “Plane,” which has just landed on Prime Video.“Plane” is arguably one of Butler’s best-ever films, not only because it’s a nostalgic throwback to 1980s and ’90s star-driven survival cinema, but also because it rejects the glossy look of modern green-screen action films. Produced on a modest mid-budget of just $25 million, “Plane” went on to become a highly profitable theatrical hit, grossing over $74 million worldwide in 2023. And for good reason too, as this action-thriller focuses on a stressed pilot trying to keep his passengers alive after (you guessed it) a plane crash.So if you’re looking for something seriously gripping to stream this weekend, here’s why “Plane” deserves a spot on your Prime Video watchlist.What is ‘Plane’ about?
