Josh Hartnett Shines in 'Fight or Flight' Debut

Josh Hartnett stars as Lucas Reyes, a disgraced former Secret Service agent, in the action-comedy 'Fight or Flight.' Tasked with escorting an unidentified asset on a flight full of assassins, Reyes finds himself at the center of absurd, over-the-top action sequences blended with humor and a self-aware, farcical tone. Hartnett's energetic and comedic performance, including doing most of his own stunts, has drawn widespread praise, with critics viewing the film as a potential franchise starter. The inventive fight choreography and unique luxury airliner setting have led to comparisons with the 'John Wick' franchise, though the film distinguishes itself with its comedic approach. Early reviews are largely positive, with an 82% Rotten Tomatoes rating, and Hartnett's performance is seen as a key highlight. 'Fight or Flight' is noted as both a return and reinvention for Hartnett, showcasing his evolution as an unpredictable leading man.
