It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
This movie was so cheap its not even that funny. The producers, directors, etc must have used the same shots for different scenes 5 different times.The overall plot wasn't too bad, but how in the world did this Zeke guy go around slaughtering tribes and towns without any sort of military resistance from the country. If some yahoo went around firing missiles in Chicago, Detroit, etc than he'd be shot down within the hour.Another thing wrong was they never elaborated on the fate of everyone that was infected on the plane before the proverbial "shyt hit the fan" part. Did David Naughton's character bite the bag or what? Lastly, did anyone else who saw this movie laugh when Zeke hit the drink after the bees attacked, that may have been the smartest move in film history.Poor effort but with the planes....I give it 4 out of 10
This is the worst movie I've seen in a long while. The story wasn't exciting at all, the scenes inside the plane were terribly unrealistic. Few movies I've seen with the "airplane disaster theme" had been good though.I mean Adam and the woman who helped pulling the Dr. North into the plane would be sucked out like never before had it been in real life.Fun to see all sharp turns that plane took in the air...So typical that a young computer geek with glasses would stop the missile from hitting the plane, seen that before? Oh yeah...So typical that it all had to end in a kiss..I would like to see the 767 that could manage that landing and still stand on its wheels while on the ground.The first scenes with the shooting took way too much time as well.There are B movies but this doesn't even qualify into that category.
I will simply comment this movie like this...It started bad and become only worse and worse....among the worst rubbish I've ever seen.First you could realise who would end as a good guy and bad guy. You could predict what couples would occur You could also predict how people would die Added to this you also saw the same explosions and flight dives used in different places of the movie. The effects looked sometimes like a movie from the 70s or maybe early 80s. (with other words cheap cheap cheap) I'm specially dissapointed in Rutger Hauer to take a role like this with ridiculous lines all along the movie.
Excellent Movie! I like this kind of "Congo" Movies Virus and stuff! If you like "virus" movies... airplane disaster movies and so... see it... you wont regret it.. i gave it 8/10
