ON A WING AND A PRAYER (Theatrical Release USA 2023)

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.9|5.0 Starsììì 

On a Wing and a Prayer, while not great, has likeableness that underlies its story despite its average presentation. Dennis Quaid performs his role well and the rest of the cast plays excellently as supporting cast. Know this runs on a typical theme of bad events cause person to lose faith in God. Person finds himself in dire situation, prays, survives, and regains trust in God. This film serves as a suitable afternoon watch.
