Review of Flight/Risk

Flight/Risk (2022)
3/10
Whiny, incomplete recap.
13 September 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This film focuses on family's grief, the whistle blowers who were ignored, and the journey to hold Boeing criminally accountable, which they deserved. (Compare Volkswagen's "clean" diesel exhaust scam.) A strong case is made that the FAA was complicit in the cover up. But the film fails to fully explain exactly what happened. There is no mention of Boeing execs relying on one sensor for this critical piece. (Using two would have required recertification as per FAA rules.)

It bounces back and forth between stories of families recovering and reflecting, the technical explanation, and the legal team. It can be difficult to remember where the previous story left off. So I would call it choppy.

This is not a good addition to the story of this tragedy.

The federal hearings are captured well. And president Trump is not made out to be a fool for a change.
