Fight or Flight

Fight or Flight is currently streaming in Australia on Amazon Prime Video, and in the US on fuboTV and Paramount Plus Premium, and it delivers exactly the kind of comedy that earns a loyal following. The runtime earns every minute, with nothing here that feels like padding. A 6/10 rating says what the writing already makes obvious: this one works. Watch it for Josh Hartnett — stay for everyone else around them. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Amazon Prime Video.

Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, Fight or Flight is worth clearing space for. Sharp writing and a well-matched ensemble are what separate Fight or Flight from the crowd. A mercenary takes on the job of tracking down a target on a plane but must protect that target when they're surrounded by people trying to kill both of them. Josh Hartnett and Charithra Chandran lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2025. The timing in Fight or Flight is precise enough that even the throwaway lines land on a second watch. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

Fight or Flight is the kind of thing you put on in the background and end up fully watching. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. The complete film is available and best experienced without too much prior knowledge of where it goes. Josh Hartnett sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
