Roger Ebert responds to a reader’s criticism of Flightplan, whose plot apparently falls apart upon further consideration. Ebert’s response: if the movie doesn’t start to fall apart until after you’ve left the theatre, and does a good job of entertaining you while you’re still inside, then it’s doing something right.

Funny, you could say exactly the same thing about Jodie Foster’s last movie, David Fincher’s Panic Room.
