97 Minutes

My god, avoid at all cost, cause if not it could provoke a heart attack.

I am sure if there was a go found me to be able to produce this film, Alec Baldwin most have been the biggest donor of the funds, otherwise this couldn't be released at all.

I mean, this is the baddest film of this year so far. Poor sound, bad script, scholars acting. The bad guys portrait as simple and bad as possible. The pilot's son is like a cartoon implant. The Doctor as many of the other characters are kind of extracted from a bad theatrical representation.

And I thought The Mother and Fast X were the baddest films this year. But this one surpass them by far.

I was hopeful at the start, because I was really into an action packed disaster movie, but from the very start I expected troubles ahead...

The bad: this movie is cheaply made and one can tell, Everything from the leading credits, to the sound, to the photography, all these technical aspects are way below average. It's quite cringeworthy to watch these cheap special effects, it's as if we are watching a seventies disaster movie, with lots of ridiculous fake effects.

More bad: what's even worse though is that the many supporting actors unintentionally are becoming a laughing stock, by the really terrible, yet funny way they (try) to act.

And as the final blow this movie simply never ever achieves to thrill for one mere second.

Not any good then? It's absolutely a new low for Alec Baldwin, who is starring in this disastrous flick. Although I must admit his performance was still kinda convincing, because he is still a good actor, running on lower ground though...

Pretty mediocre / bad movie in my opinion. It just throws you into it. No build up or anything. Alot of the events that happen doesnt even make sense, a watcher would question it and things are just rushed in. You dont get a feel for any of the characters so you wouldnt really care much about what happens to them really. The government immediately goes to drastic measures as soon as something went wrong?? In all its basic movie everythings really predictable so don expect much

But i can give props to the twist near the end tho.

And lastly the fact that the movie is called "97 Minutes" but it's only 93 minutes long is a bad sign lmao.

This film barely even qualifies as a B film, more like a C film. A high school drama class can come up with a better movie. The writing had plot holes, inconsistencies and technical issues, as clearly no research went into any elements of this film - from flying/landing a plane, cabin pressure, mid-air debris explosions, security, etc. Even the dialogue was infantile dramatics and boring nonsense filler for the most part. Writer, producer and actor in this film Pavan Grover apparently is a doctor in real life, yet in the film when the pilot gets shot, his medical training inclination was to put a red tube in one nostril (hardly any first aid kit in the world would have this apparatus in it) and patch him up, so I question his skills as a doctor to be about as good as his writing, which clearly is terrible. The directing was just as bad, and the fight scenes were the worst and laughable choreography I have ever seen. The CGI, especially the flashback bombing explosion was laughable.

Short and to the point: there was so much potential that it is baffling how this movie turned out the way it did. Everything you have seen about plane movies is here, just used in the most un-creative way possible. It is a complete mess. Feels like a first year film school project. The fighting sequences look as if they were rehearsing, the plot predictable and full of cliches, even the VFX is so clean that it looks fake. It will leave you wondering about many things; especially how this mess was green lit to be made and then to be released. Frankly, Snakes on a Plane was better than this and you know how bad that was. Steer clear of this bomb of a movie.
