Final Approach is a classic mind ride through your subjective consciousness. It centers around two main characters - really superb actors - who rely on each other so heavily that they become one. The process of question and answer is matched by imagination and guess work. While you watch this film you will constantly question why you have the patience to continue, yet, at the same time, it will hypnotize you into to being completely mesmerized. This wonderful film is a piece of movie art. My only concern is that this film is not available on DVD and so many a young fan of perfect cinema will never encounter what other cult-fans have experienced to be an enlightenment of the human imagination.

Anyone who calls this film "boring" or "a disappointment" is merely indicating their lack of intelligence and ability to work with a film. If you want the kind of movie where you leave your brain at home and stuff your face with popcorn then go rent any one of a million sh*t hollywood blockbusters, this film is poignant, touching and clever, with a brilliant script (perfectly executed by the two main characters) and a stunning soundtrack. Every frame is beautifully lit, framed and designed. My only complaint is that it doesn't seem to be slated for a DVD release, which would give the viewer the ultimate aural experience intended in the original release. If you want to know what it's about, i can only sum up with the words of Dr.Peterson....."...it's about life"Breathtaking!

I do actually think that I watched this movie with an open mind, but boy was I disappointed! The ending is terribly predictable, one gets it about five minutes into the movie, and then watching another almost two hours makes it really really boring. A ten year old could have figured the "twisted" ending out.Sure, the dialogue was pretty ok I guess, but having figured out the ending and pretty much the whole story a few minutes into the movie it was pretty meaningless. And just what did the aircraft have to do with all of it, a trick to lure people into renting it? Just don't waste your time watching this movie.
