Brace for Impact: Indagine ad alta quota

Here's the movies plot: 1. Americans are bad. 2. Government agencies are evil. 3. Muslims don't commit terrorism and are unfairly targeted. 4. If you get to know a homosexual, you will like them. 5. Men are evil and woman are saints.

Goebbels couldn't have produced a better piece of worthless propaganda. Apparently in this NWO of political correctness, the bad guys are good and the good guys are bad. Instead of just making this a who-done-it movie, the producers felt the moral obligation to inject their ideology into it. Hard to judge whether this could have been a good movie or not because of their preaching. The most glaring defect of the movie is the fact that the "hero" of the movie commits numerous felonies, but, that is apparently insignificant since the end justify the means.

This movie could have been a good movie except for the bashing of men and the ridiculous, obsessive female lead. What a complete waste of an hour and a half.

The story-line and execution of that story-line are okay. It's an average sort of mystery/conspiracy. BUT, the political correctness is so out of control. We have way too many homosexuals presented in this movie. Way out of proportion to real life. I have gay friends, but not MOST of my friends are gay. I don't care if you happen to be gay, but I don't need to have "gays are great" shoved in my face when I watch a movie. I also have Muslim friends. But NOT ALL of my friends are Muslims. And I don't need "Muslims are Great" shoved in my face when I'm watching a movie. Sad to day, but many of the terrorists active today are Muslim, or at least claim to be Muslim. I imagine there are mimes out there who are terrorists, too. And probably clowns. And a nun here or there. But jeez, can a movie just be a movie and not have a political agenda?

"Sophia Gilchrist" (Kerry Condon) is an agent for the FACB (Flight Activities Control Board) which is an agency responsible for examining aircraft accidents. However, as the story unfolds we learn that Sophia has an unusual trait in that she is very afraid of flying. So much so that when she finally boards a flight with her brother (in order to overcome this fear) she ends up leaving just before the airplane takes off. It's not until she is driving to her destination that she learns that the flight crashed--killing all on board-including her brother. Needing answers to gain closure she begins investigating the accident even though she has been ordered to distance herself from it due to creating a potential conflict of interest. Unfortunately, because of feelings of guilt, she disobeys orders and continues to investigate in spite of warnings to cease and desist. And her continued activity creates all sorts of problems for everyone involved. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an interesting film by and large but it suffered from a socially liberal bias which was simply too obvious to be ignored. It also had a rather anti-climactic ending which seemed a bit too rushed as well. In any case, I thought this movie was good enough for the most part and all things considered I have rated it accordingly. Average.

Sofia Gilchrist (Kerry Condon) has a fear of flying. She and her brother are flying to visit their mother (Sheila McCarthy). At the last minute, she runs off the plane and leaves her brother on board. The plane crashes with no survivors. Sofia is a suspended plane crash investigator and her personal connection excludes her from the case. She investigates on her own anyways.

I'm here for Kerry Condon. It's a Canadian production trying to be American. It's TV movie level except for a couple of these great actors. The investigation goes too slowly and lacks action. The solution seems pretty obvious which saps away the tension. She needs somebody trying to kill her. Fighting the system can only go so far.
