I was surprised to see this movie only has a 6.3 rating. I think audiences are too used to the same clichéd story structure we see in pretty much all action movies; the villain causes mayhem, the protagonist underdog steps-up, and against all odds defeats the evil, saves the day, is reunited with their love interest, and walks off a hero... roll credits. This movie challenges that cliché, and it does it in a brutal fashion. It's much more of a psychological-action movie than a classic action movie. There are no epic fight scenes, courageous last second acts of heroism or sudden unexpected plot twists. It's completely raw, "how would a post 9/11 airplane hijacking scenario unfold in real life conditions?". And that's exactly what you get, with almost no sugar-coating. That's not to say that the movie doesn't conform to some clichés, but the brutal and harrowing reality it portrays is akin to a movie based on real events, yet this is completely fictional. To say the ending is abrupt is an understatement, I certainly had a "wait, what?" moment. But in hindsight, it's actually very fitting with the narrative of the movie. There's definitely a huge psychological element that will leave you feeling very uneasy and claustrophobic, but I personally praise it for its raw and unforgiving depiction of how a real-life hijacking could potentially play out.

7.5/10.

Such a horribly gripping film that pictures what a minority have potentially been through. Superb acting throughout and leaves a tingle down your spine. Due to the pre ratings I expected nothing really and so was pleasantly surprised. JGL is becoming an actor well ahead of his times and quite rightly so. Well done sir.

I fly the A319/320/321. Whoever consulted on the film did a good job, and incorporated realism to how the airplane is flown. That constant beating on the door is also accurate. It won't open unless someone lets you in.

I had a good time with this film. The story and the characters were immersive, the editing and the pace were spot on, but the lack of a soundtrack and the cinematography were negatives for me. It almost has an indie-film quality going on. The style(or lack thereof) may put off your typical moviegoer but looking past those oddities reveals a hidden gem of a movie.

7500 (2019) starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt is not your average thriller/action movie. Where other movies would have shootouts, a bomb go off, the engines fail, or someone sucked out of an open window, 7500 is more realistic. Sure, seeing some reviews about how ATC's demeanor is off or the plane details are wrong is fair. But that is missing the point. A group of Islamic terrorists are attempting to hijack a plane during a standard flight from Berlin to Paris and American first officer Tobias Ellis is the only one who can avert disaster. This movie keeps you on the edge of your seat if you allow it to and is very good.

I'm reviewing this film based on what I believe the filmmakers wanted to achieve by making it, a gritty claustrophobic real-life account of the brutal hijacking of a commercial airline. And that is exactly what I saw, this is not a Hollywood film nor does it have a big budget but that's exactly why it works. One has to look at this film for what it is and not what you may be expecting it to be. If you look at this film solely from the point of view of the co-piolet which is what the film is about then you'll understand that it's not trying to tell a political story or give you insight to why people hijack planes. The runtime is 90 minutes and I was never bored during this entire time. I felt every emotion the protagonist felt and I was totally involved in his plight. No film is perfect and this film is no exception but it made a favourable impression on me that I felt the need to leave a review. This is a little gem of a film and definitely worth 90 minutes of your life if you like these small gritty intense sorts of films. Most of the negative reviews are based on opinions that have nothing to do with storytelling. I would bet that nearly all of the negative reviews came from people who didn't actually watch the film.

I don't like aviation movies, they never get more than two things in a row right. This movie hits home somewhat as I'm a pilot (though on a Boeing) and as such it could happen to me, so I was curious as to how bad another aviation movie on this topic could be.

This movie... I was stunned and amazed, I had a genuinely elevated heart rate all throughout watching it. You really feel the lack of movement and placement scripting in the absolute freedom and improvisation of the filming, it is so inconceivably unpredictable and realistic. All the procedures and actions are technically correct too, which can feel superfluous for the people that don't know and care, but is a level of authenticity in movies that I've never seen.

I am advising all my colleagues to see this.

All most the entire movie was shot in cockpit. Acting looked realistic.Entire movie looked so realistic.Well done.

This is a real anti-hollywood movie. A gritty movie that is thrilling and suspensful without the glitz and shine, the need to embelish real life and have super happy endings. Just solid performances and what could actually happen. They clearly had pilots, pschologists and police advise them. There may be holes, but they were inaccurancies above my level of knowledge. Had me enthalled, better than its reviews, but not for everyone, if you like your movies realistic and/or like planes this one is for you.

Like really high ... as in in the air high. Jokes aside, the movie is more than serious and really tries to portray happenings as close to reality as they can get. The acting is great and while some things are heightened for effect, you can see things going down the way they did.

This is not easy to watch (it is not meant to be), but if you are into thrillers taken from real life and drama unfolding in front of your eyes, this is a movie to remember and watch of course. There might be decisions being made that you would not have taken, but don't forget we are talking about humans and everyone is wired differently. Also we are meant to feel strange and not entirely sure about some of the people involved. Humans are complex - even the evil ones

It might be realistic in terms of flying the plane but definitely not it terms of behaviour. This came in 2019. Do they really think people are just going to sit and let two unarmed people do whatever the hell they want to and not fight back? I mean yes they had glass knives but c'mon two men against all of the other passengers, who do you think is gonna win? Also, the copilot does the stupidest thing ever. Instead of secretly keeping this to himself after he successfully locked the door, he absolutely for no reason at all announces that they're going to make an emergency landing triggering the highjackers even more. Then they start killing people. Of course they will. I mean who in his right mind announces something like this in a situation like this? Unrealistically stupid.

Having seen the trailer on this movie I decided to watch it while not expecting much. I was really surprised. The movie was very well written and portrayed. I definitely recommend it.

The pilots of a passenger aircraft prepares for take-off on a short haul flight between Berlin and Paris. Tobias Ellis (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is the American co-pilot working for the German airline and his wife (Aylin Tezel) is a member of the cabin crew. Shortly after take-off four Islamic terrorists attempt to attack the cockpit. One gains entry, but is not knocked unconscious, while the pilot (Carlo Kitzlinger) is mortally injured. Tobias maintains control as the terrorists try to gain entry and control of the aircraft and threaten to kill passengers and crew.

Filmed entirely within the cockpit of the aircraft, the film is gripping from beginning until the end with Gordon-Levitt providing an outstanding performance in the lead. The tension is maintained throughout and is a perfect example of how drama can be sustained in a confined space. This is a German-Austrian-US production that deserves greater recognition.

... once they realised the extremist recruiters had not read 'Hijacking for Dummies' the authorities were able to play their patronise the terrorist card with aplomb.

"7500" develops anticipation and builds tension from the opening frames, simulating authentic security camera footage of terrorists getting through airport security, and onto a German airline passenger jet headed to Paris. Once aboard the plane, Vollrath uses a real-time linear scene structure (similar to Mendes' "1917") from the viewpoint of the cockpit and the American co-pilot played with understated perfection by Gorden-Levitt. The film takes hold of the viewer and doesn't let go - the entire film plays like a reenactment of actual events (this is fictional). A fantastic 1st film effort by German Screenwriter/Director Patrick Vollrath.

This movie gives an amazingly realistic look at the interplay that exist in actual hijacking scenarios. It is slower in pace and grittier in appearance and direction than what many expect from a Hollywood movie of this type and could be seen as more of a fictional "documentary" which I expect is the reason for the shockingly low reviews seen. However in my opinion the acting and direction of this movie make it one of the best in its genre and well worth watching.

During the viewing, I did find myself yelling to both lead characters to "Man Up and Deal With Their Consequences!" Of course, I've never been through the ordeal they have, so it's just speculation on my part. I thought Joseph Gordon Levitt was fine but the young terrorist guy had NO expression except "I'm actually in a movie?" The real-time idea was a nice touch; I wasn't expecting that in today's element of film making. Still, I recommend it in relation to how a story can be told in real time.

7500 was a solid directorial debut and good return to acting from Joseph Gordon Lewitt,he did a good job here and he showed that even after some years of vacation he still has that magic touch in him,direction and story progress were also solid but nothing spectacular,mostly because cause we saw the same theme being shown in a better film,the most famous one being United 93 but still this was a film that can be watched and that in end you dont hate yourself for spending your time on it,other actors were solid and they sold some good tension and drama moments,7500 was a solid film,nothing special or awesome but it can be watched if you are interested in subject
