Review of Crash Landing

Crash Landing (2005)
9/10
We have a winner!
8 May 2007
Warning: Spoilers
Oh man, where to begin: Take a washed-up actor with a generic stock character name accompanying a stereotypical rich-girl.

Add your generic bad-guy crew completely devoid of charisma and acting ability.

Add your unbelievable action scenes, meaning it cannot be believed! A gunfight in a rear of the plane with no stray bullets causing damage to the plane or other passengers! Antonio Sabato, Jr. escaping gunfire by hiding behind an aluminum container! (Note the hull is damaged by same gunfire.) A struggle in which a person shot in the chest no-sells the injury and fatally wounds his attacker! A decompression which doesn't suck anyone out of the plane! An Army Corps Engineering Unit able to "create a 100 foot runway extension" in 20 minutes! A Boeing 747-100 (or is it a 767-300?) not needing reverse thrust to land on a narrow atoll! The subdued hijacker, who manages to free himself after capture, not bouncing around like a pinball during the "crash landing!" All of which leads to a climax that is truly award-worthy... a Razzie award! Oh, and screw the injured and dead flight crew, there's steak on the BBQ! Best. Movie. Ever. 9 out of 10 for sheer camp value.
