I am a pilot, and am very familiar with commercial aircraft, but the scenes in this movie contain several different aircraft, until they finally choose a poor computer generation of a Boeing 767-200ER for Inter-Americas flight 209. However the cabin and flight deck are right for the aircraft unlike many movies today. I love the cabin attendants, the best service I have ever seen. Just watch and you'll see why Michelle has to be one of the best flight attendants. The story it's self is very predictable, and the acting for some of the characters is subservient. But overall it is a good movie to sit and veg with on a Friday night, how ever I don't like the fact that it doesn't make you think, other than how unrealistic this is. Also a passenger who has no flying experience, could not ever under any circumstances land a 767 on a field. The aircraft comes in for a landing at 160-180mph, and handles like a bus, so the ending is unrealistic. However it is true that that aircraft can make a landing on a field, it has happened, but only with an experienced crew.
... View MoreThis 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
... View MoreWell... only worth watching if you really have nothing better to do. The story is ludicrous, the dialogue embarrassing and the special effects cheesy in the extreme. However, it did provide some laughs. It is worth watching just for the aeroplane sequences. How they persuaded Rutger Hauer to appear in this is hard to imagine and while Gabrielle Anwar is not the greatest actress in the world she would have been hard put to do much with this dialogue. I would love to know how much the budget was for this movie. They can't have shot more than one take of anything and I should think the whole thing was made in a week. Have fun!
