Nowhere to Land

Ok it's a TV movie and yeah it's done on a budget especially as they have used stock clips from better plane disaster movies.

First of all no way the security would have allowed that ornament on the plane with all that wiring in the case so already the B. S meter is alive and kicking.

Acting is rather wooden with some of the characters and in truth it's a case of nobody cares with regards to each character as zero character development.

I was wishing the whole plane would crash killing them all as they were all stupid and as interesting as paint drying on the wall.

The would be nerve gas terrorist was just so dull it made me switch off constantly.

Is this worth your watch?

No is the answer and how people gave this high numbers of rating beggars belief but trust me when I tell you this * Films Sucks Goats Balls*

This happened to be on, and I wasn't really doing anything else at the time. It's a made-for-TV thriller about tension on an airborne plane. Those tend to be pretty formulaic, and this is certainly no exception. It's average as they come, if it'll basically get the job done. The developments are all entirely predictable(care to take a guess if anyone panics?), and some of the dialog is really poor. With two exceptions, the cast is all nobodies, and it shows; the acting varies greatly, and there are definitely cases of scenery-chewing. None of the characters are memorable. The development of them is decent. Anyway, Jack Wagner takes a break from appearing in the fantasies of female Melrose Place viewers and returns to the small screen, and he's enjoyable enough to watch. Ernie Hudson brings some of his coolness to this, but as you may already know, his presence does not on its own a good flick make. The suspense and such are fine, if you just remember to pretend you don't know exactly where things are going. Honestly, you don't need to have seen any of these to be able to tell, the clichés are known by most. The way it's shot and edited is OK. I recommend this to fans of this kind of movie. 5/10

Nowhere to Land is a fair film! It stars Ernie Hudson, Jack Wagner, Christine Elise, James Sikking, Mark Lee, Rachael Blake, Helen Thomson, Damian Pike, and Laurie Foel. The acting by all of these actors is very good. Hudson is really great in this film! The action is good. The music is good. The film is quite exciting and the movie keeps you going until the finale. This is a very good and thrilling film. Just ignore the bad comments and give this film a try! If you Ernie Hudson, Jack Wagner, Christine Elise, James Sikking, and the rest of the cast I've mentioned above, thrillers, air plane disaster films, and exciting non-stop action films then I recommend this film!

Could it be possible for a film to have any more worn cliches as this film? Another airliner in trouble. Another heroic captain saving the passengers from certain doom. There was absolutely zero suspense and zero originality here. As the plane's pilot Jack Wagner was awful. All smirk and smarm and no hint of realism. When making your viewing reservations be sure to book another flight. This one was grounded for mechanical defects.

This is one of the worst things I have seen on TV. I would have accepted it if it would have been made in the 70s or 80s. Nowhere to Land has all the stupid things you remember from the films from that time. For example:

There is a bomb on a plane in Nowhere to Land witch every one know will explode in very short time. The situation is really hectic but there is always time for a the typical "time stop" that you see in American movies. Here we have everything from a nice speech from pilot to wife... a kiss and some talk between a boy and a girl before jumping out of the airplane. All this while the bomb is ticking or deadly gas is spreading in the cabin.

The bomb releases a danger gas that are spreading through the cabin. But instead of running away from it the crew always looks at it first for about 10 seconds and then run.

The pilots teacher and former co-pilot is on the plane and dies quite heroically in the end trying to move the bomb further away from the passenger. However the movie ends in pure happiness like we should have forgotten all about him.

Nowhere to Land includes most of the old clichés that we have seen over and over again and are sick of seeing. Therefore I think it would have been better to make this a comedy and change the title to "Not another plane movie".
