फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
A movie about a dedicated pilot who is driven mad to extreme depression, and ends up trying to blow up Las Vegas in the process in order to fulfil his sick purpose. Good acting, plenty of action, and an unexpected twist in the end makes this one worth watching.
In this TV movie, Peter Strauss is in charge of a training program for fighter pilots. His most dedicated student, WIlliam O'Leary, decides he has a divine mission to kill his parents and siblings, and then bomb Las Vegas.
Yes, it is a serious movie, although not in the sense of being important. The performances are all right, although I continually rolled my eyes at the basic situation, grown trite since the release of Fail-Safe. There's little to add to the basic plot, although there's a long discursion when O'Leary takes prisoner Michele Pawk, Michael Keys Hall, and their infant because they made the mistake of saying "What was that?" when he flew over the road at what looked like 30 feet. Lots of shots of what look like military jets flying across the screen in a quarter of a second.

I rented this movie one night just because I had nothing better to do. To my surprise, I found it entertaining. I will not tell the plot, but this is a pretty good action/thriller. The colour on it is pretty dull, but the movie has some good special effects and explosions. B-
Ludicrous plot, bad acting, glaring factual errors. Stylistically, it's a bit of a Top Gun rip-off. And seriously, who ever heard of anyone landing a fighter on a road and then taking off again later? If you like to make up funny lines for the dialogue or you like to pick out errors, etc., then this is the movie for you. And Peter Strauss, next time you play a military man, get a haircut.
FLIGHT OF BLACK ANGEL is another movie about a renegade fighter pilot taking the fight to the skies above America. There were a few of these films made throughout the 1990s, John Woo's BROKEN ARROW being the one I know the best. Although this one's a TV movie, it doesn't suffer from the trappings of that genre because it actually has some violent scenes of murder and destruction in it, so it's not one that plays it safe throughout.
I watched this film out of interest because it was an early effort from director Jonathan Mostow, later to make crowd-pleasers like BREAKDOWN and TERMINATOR 3. Mostow is hampered by a low budget in this one, but the story's interesting and I enjoyed the way that most of the material ends up taking place on the ground rather than in the skies. Peter Strauss is a dull hero character but William O'Leary is rather convincing as the out-of-his-mind pilot. The special effects again are limited in nature but there's enough meat in the surrounding scenes to make the whole thing frighteningly convincing in places.
