I put “Flight Risk” on so I had something to watch while assembly in a bunch of yo-yos. It starts off with some AI generated scenes of Alaska, then goes downhill from there. When the credits rolled, I realized this was a Mel Gibson project. Certainly wouldn’t recommend it, even as background noise.
