The story line is interesting, if somewhat improbable. Some would say down right impossible. But that should not detract from the film. It is no more improbable than the story lines of any adventure movie - James Bond, for example - or many of the fantasy films that are so popular these days. So we should not judge the film on how realistic we think it may or may not be, but on how entertaining it is.

I found "Final Decent" to be very entertaining. It had action; it had romance; and it had suspense. In fact, I would call it the best of the Airplane disaster movies. That's enough for me. I liked it. And I am saddened that it was never available commercially.

Where's the DVD?

Final Descent isn't an original flick.-But first and foremost a solid movie, without all the usual mistakes we're all so sick and tired of! The acting is solid. The plot and script works. The technical aspects seem credible. The outside-shots of the airplane are good. and the special effects are actually flawless. -On top of which Robert Ürich delivers a fine performance as usual. All in all:-A good version of an old idea. You won't be disappointed. I give it 4/6!

The script and the actors are so bad, it's almost comical! The pilot declaring his love for his co-pilot which he kept hidden for too many years, 3 Canadian oilworkers opening a hatch (27.000 ft???) to haul in a waterhose, a chopper shooting at the jammed wings of the plane, etc etc. If you have really really nothing better to do, see it and enjoy a laugh.

This is one of that strange breed of films - the cliche ridden, made for TV that also happens to be fantastically entertaining!

No scenes of tedious plot exposition and no dead-weight back story dragging it down, just a damn fine airplane disaster flick with genuine excitement and a likeable cast.

Good work fellas!

Based on the book "The Glass Cockpit" and directed by Mike Robe. The best unbelievably far fetched action movie ever. Semi-Believable acting despite the ok character development. Hilarious story line along with some really cheesy special effects. No way anyone was going to die with Robert Urich at the wheel. No problem goes unsolved with this guy! This would make an excellent Mystery SciFi Theater flick! No kidding, It's just as funny as "The Tomorrow War" with Chris Pratt.
