I was persuaded to watch this by the outstanding ( but FAKE ) reviews
pattie74596 August 2021
I couldn't understand how this movie matched to the high scores given by the reviewers until I noted that the majority of the reviews were on the same dates in July and August and only registered in the same year with only a single film review .....for this film !

The film itself is okay for a B rated movie to while away the time , but.....there is fortunately a point that you can indeed return to watch the BBC news !

Come on, this is some pretty hammy cheesy stuff this movie
C-middleton-207-33664116 August 2021
Actually watched this in its entirety, no idea why, maybe its because I can't remember watching something so utterly naff.

Even the audio was out of sink, spent the first 10 minutes trying to figure out if they were even moving their lips to the audio. Who on earth is giving this a 7 is a pure joker. Worth a laugh to be fair, the story is semi so so, the execution of the movie is amateur at best, the acting by some is ok but come on.

This will be another cheesy cult movie, trying to delete this from my memory now as its uno staying in there. Probably best skipping past this one, but if you want to remember how bad movies can be made, then watch it.

Camera man seems to have an issue with staying still, take your time man.

Why use a moped for the action scenes, absolute absurdity, a moped escape from a jeep, don't think so, then drive over the top of the jeep, ha ha ha, what the, don't think so.

I'm giving this a 4.3, probably being to nice. 🤣

Indian Inflation?
bshanley-6146113 March 2021
I have noticed that Indian films often score much higher ratings than they deserve. Has it spread to Ireland, too? This is a poorly written, bad dialogue, low budget film that was a complete waste of my time. There were only two positives: the sky diving scene, and the male protagonist, Bernard Deegan. Do I praise him for his acting? Absolutely not. There was no good acting by anyone. I simply admire the way he so perfectly melds the Kenau Reeves look and style with that of Our Gang's Alfalfa. Brilliant.

Not return of my time wasted
aydinamoli1 March 2021
I just have one question for everyone giving this film 9 and 10 star ratings. If this is a 10 star movie then what would you give a real movie such as say for example The Godfather or Shawshank Redemption? 20? 100? Anyways it was a bad movie. I gave it 2 stars for effort.

Words (Nearly) fail me
adamflavell16 June 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I had to watch to the end.Possibly sado masochistic tendencies, I may need therapy. So many plot holes I won't bore you with them. Most of reviews have summed this tripe up, acting was appalling, plot was beyond absurd. Most of "action" in finale was in the dark, no, I really mean in the dark. Little could be seen, suppose we have to be thankful for that. One particular line of dialogue stuck in my head. Our male hero decides to apprehend the comic book villain, "Get the Police" says the girlfriend. "They wont make it in time!", they arrive at airport, block the runway to stop villain escaping, 3 seconds later the Police (who would never have made it in time) arrive. I'm going to lay down for quite some time, maybe watch a movie by The Asylum, please, never criticise them again after this.....

Really awful
yetisfootprints17 March 2019
This is a dreadful film. The idea of an air accident investigation into uncertified parts being used on aircraft could have been made into a great film. But this attempt is awful. Bad amateurish acting, meandering plot, and generally unbelievable scenarios make for a completely forgettable movie.

Movie is trash - good reviews are suspicious
scottjtepper2 May 2021
Most of the good reviews come from "reviewers" who have only reviewed this film. The film itself is terrible. Poorly edited, poorly written, poorly acted. And with terrible special effects.

It is so bad it's laughably bad.

If you watch it come back and review it. And let us now if you think there are a lot of shills who came here and gave this utter trash good reviews. I do.

Amatuerish and unrealistic
paul-37505 February 2019
It may (or may not) be based on a true story but the acting is wooden and the screenplay ridiculous Not my cup of tea

Dumbest Movie I have ever seen!
bluegate8415 June 2019
The acting , the storyline , the cinamatography all contribute to the most painful movie experience I've ever had. How it received a rating of 4 out of 5 stars I can't imagine.

My, this is SUCH a bad movie!
dwhitebread-888-1358222 February 2021
My, this is SUCH a bad movie! Believe all the 1 star reviews. But it gets about 4.5 out of 5 stars on Amazon Prime. The reason is Amazon duplicates the score from the Brigitte Fonda movie of the same name from 1993, which was very good. A clever way to get you to watch their trash.

Amateurish, wooden acting
mich999923 April 2020
Very disappointing film. Could have been so much better with believable acting,. The stunts were so amateurish they would have been better left out. It really looked like a school GCSE project, not a professionally made film.

josephine331 March 2021
I'm really not to sure why there are some bad reviews on here but I thought it was great. Usually I'm watching Hollywood films but this had everything you would want in a good action flick. I highly recommend this.

Terrible storyline.
gerryshu27 February 2021
As an aviation professional I find the storyline totally unbelievable. The writers could have done at least some research on accident investigation. Total garbage.

Pretty implausible story line and pedestrian acting
gliderguy9 March 2021
First off, counterfeit aircraft parts ARE a reality and have caused airplane crashes with fatalities. But companies making counterfeits are well aware of the necessity of producing convincing paperwork, unlike what was portrayed here. There is a non sequitur tie in with skydiving that is there because the people involved are probably skydivers. The protagonist, at the end, seems to live happily ever after even though he has committed multiple felonies that resulted in the death of a passenger. Go figure...

So poorly acted it's unwatchable
lopezpatricia-0613910 October 2020
It's also badly shot too and combined with atrocious editing. The films a joke. It also has very little to do with a aircraft disaster as the cover artwork suggests. Just dodgy parts and one death. I've also noticed that in the reviews there a series of 9 out of 10 scores all on the same day. Pathetic that you'd have to get your mates to gem up reviews sad really.
