This was really an excellent documentary. It moves quickly and clearly and to the point. If you are part of the public that has to fly on a regular basis I would recommend you watch this, if you are a concerned citizen and tired of BIG BUSINESS controlling our world and our government you should watch this and even if you don't care about either you should watch this. They hit on all the points without getting muddy and boring. Points out clearly that as a human being you mean NOTHING to large corporations or the greedy people that run them and the FAA that one would think cares but really doesn't. The whistle blowers of this world should be hailed as the true rock stars of our society they deserve adulation and all the respect. Too bad $ is always the winner in our universe.

Films like this tug at your emotions. Afterall, how dare a huge corporate entity, with government oversight, murder hundred of people with the potential to kill many more? Well, if every story has multiple sides this film pretty much narrows it down to incriminating Boeing, only topically exploring the hubris, callousness, and possible criminal actions of the Boeing corporate management. No one went to jail curiously...and, I deduce by various sources on the web, the lawyers for the victims made off individually much better than bereaved relatives. As dark as the corporate greed was, it turns a blind eye to the equally questionable supposed compensation process. The viewer, and I believe, victims would be better served by a surgical and methodical look into the many aspects creating the perfect storm where Boeing went from being the premier producer of safe and dependable aircraft to a company making sub-standard, and un-safe, aircraft in service of milking Wall Street, and airline clients, for obscenely massive monetary gain. This was preventable, yet all of the early employees sounding quality control issues were literally erased by Boeing (see an pre-Max expose on CBS 60-Minutes where alarm bells over the 787 "Dreamliner" quality predicted future deadly crashes). In this film we see a few latter-day Boeing employee whistleblowers - basically too little, too late to stop the deadly wheels already in motion. The whole terrible tragedy could have been caught earlier, much earlier. This is a big ommission to a better understanding of a deadly corporate climate. As such, Flight/Risk simply makes Boeing look evil and the lawyers seeking compensation like some kind of saints. I hardly believe this serves the victims in the most reverent sense. And, the Max is back in the air, perhaps safer, yet still highly flawed, which no one seems to want to explore in depth. Something still smells bad in this whole terrible tragedy and this film ignores it. Maybe one day a really hard-hitting, courageously in-depth probe will tell a more balanced accounting. One that truly exposes how a revered and respected Boeing became a criminal organization able to reduce the FAA to the level of a lachey accomplice.

It's a pretty sad story of the military industrial complex, which really doesn't care about human life at all, just profits. Bottom line here is 346 people died in 2 crashes and the Boeing CEO who made 30 million a year had to resign. His replacement started with a salary of 1.4 million a year with lots of incentives to aim for. His most immediate incentive? Restore the failure of Boeing Max to flight status worldwide. Which took him around a year, and he got a bonus of 7 MILLION DOLLARS. You see how this crap works? It's disgusting. And really is the plane design safe now? The jury is still out. 7/10.

Never seen the other side of Boeing until these 2 crashes and this documentary takes you on a ride with the people who showed the other side of Boeing and the FAA with so much depth. These people really bought justice if not full justice to the victim's families. The main culprit's are the CEO FAA and the Senior managers who managed to escape. I hope Boeing and FAA has learned from their mistakes and prevent this incident in the future. Being an Avgeek I never thought Boeing will go for such an extent for Profits at the cost of 346 innocent lives. This documentary really shows the pain of the victim's families. The Best Documentary I've ever seen hand's down.

Broadly, this documentary explores the aftermath of the Boeing 737 Max crashes. What it presents is varied: the work of attorneys for families of the victims engaged in pre-trial iprep; families remembering their lost loved ones, especially one woman remembering her late father; a pilot association lamenting the failure of Boeing to provide information about a new 'safety' feature or provide sufficient training to pilots; the causes of the crashes; a reporter, who previously reported on the 737 Max's failures, recounting what he determined and talking to a confidential source within the FAA talking about general sentiment within the agency ; the history of Boeing; a whistleblower within Boeing who committed suicide decades ago; a current whistleblower as to "production" issues facing the public spotlight; and even how Covid 19 is effecting. Boeing's profits. What the film fails to do in its 98 minutes is look in-depth into any of these topics or connect these pieces into a comprehensive whole. The time spent on whistleblowers is greatly wasted. We learned nothing as to the allegations made by the whistleblower who killed himself in the distant past and we are presented with nothing to believe that the allegations he made had any validity. The allegations made by the current whistleblower are referenced as issues related to "production' and something(s) that happened on the assembly floor. As the 737 Max's crashes were caused by compounded problems of faulty angle of attack sensors and a badly designed safety software program that forced planes to repeatedly dive towards the ground, it is questionable as to whether the complained of "production" issues have anything to do with the cause of the crashes. As the film keeps the whistleblower's specific allegations vague, I was left believing the filmmakers were unable to establish the validity of the allegations or connect them to the crashes. Thus, it raises the question as to why a good portion of the screen time was allotted to watching the whistleblower lament his situation and talk to his wife. A good film could have been produced by limiting the focus and going more in depth, but this was not done. Instead the filmmakers were content with presenting a bunch of weakly connected scenes that fail to create a strong whole.

Flight/Risk is directed from the perspective of a journalist-and as a journalistic effort I give it two enthusiastic thumbs up. The documentary examines the back-to-back deadly crashes of Boeing 737 MAX airplanes, first near Indonesia and five months later in Ethiopia. Whistleblowers, a journalist and others seek to hold Boeing accountable for the loss of human life, and contend that the 300+ lives lost were due to economic concerns rather than pilot safety. The documentary follows a journalist at the Seattle Times as he seeks to piece together the mismanagement and indecision at Boeing that may have impacted the ultimate decision by the FAA to ground all MAX planes. A lawyer representing the plaintiffs and victims is also followed as he seeks justice. The documentary is very good and shot in 4K UHD, and reveals the complacency and-yes-culpability of the Federal government and its regulators in the hierarchy of accountability. The movie poses some serious questions about the impact that Wall Street and the Dow Jones Industrial Average has on management decisions at American megacorporations.

Absolute garbage, this documentary is very misleading and doesn't hone in on exactly what the problem with the 737max airplane was. The main reason why the planes crashed was an aerodynamic design flaw that was augmented with software to compensate these design flaws. The documentary would lead you to believe it was a production qualify control problem but this wasn't the cause. The documentary has no direction and relies heavily on the families hurt to validate itself. It seems like it was put together by people who didn't bother to educate themselves about aviation systems and history. Overall very disappointing. A quick Google on the real cause and reasons will save you the time.

Damages the sting against the culprits of this documentary, namely boeing and the FAA.because if these accidents hadnt happened, there wouldnt have been a topic making a documentary on. I do really cry with and for the victims because im one of those who actually are scared of flying an airplane and wants air safety to be top, therefore its deadly important that docu's like this is made and spread out to the world, and the top priority must be to tell us ...WHY???? Therefore i praise people like dominic gates et.co. Doing the knitwork, done with yarn delivered by edward pierson and others, risking their life and reputation and working carreers for all of us that has to fly once in a while, saving thousands of lifes from future crashes and failures when airplanes are produced and assembled according to the new norm of work management, save a screw or save every second rivet in the fuselage to save a buck, thank you ,thank you, thank you for doing this. The most practical solutions to the mcas issue, must be one or both out of 2 options, that boeing turn and gives real time flightsimulator training to the airlines using any type of boeing machines, and that especially that FAA sets as an absolute minimum demand that simulator training is given anyhow and regularly(per year /every 2nd year etc) to all and everybody that shall steer/manouver new aircraft models and it forthcoming variants. So lets all hope that these issues will be taken care of, as well as i blame the corrupt lobbyists in the governmental corridors of washington. Flight safety costs more than a life is worth, do take the consequence and responsibility now... A must see docu, says the grumpy old man if youre a novice in the trade, couldve been far more technically advanced on the flying issues.
