Desastre Aéreo

It's a television film with Cheryl Ladd as the pilot's wife. She is happily married but she and her husband want a child. Their only child died as an infant. In this film, her husband and airline pilot are carrying a load of passengers from Washington-Baltimore to Kansas City but something happens. Nobody knows quite for sure about the cause of the accident but the pilot, a passenger, and a golden retriever survive the crash. Diane, Ladd's character, is convinced that her husband shouldn't be blamed for the crash and is determined to set him free regardless of the press, airline, and the authorities seeking somebody to blame and fault for the loss of lives. It's not a bad film but it's not great and Cheryl gives it her all and proves that she's not just another pretty actress.

The plane crash site looks very real. If it was put together by set decorators you have my applause. Peter Jurasik is excellent as the guy who explains the mystery. This is not the greatest movie of all time, but it certainly is well worth the time invested in watching. All technical work and acting and directing are very well done for a low budget movie.

TV movie quality flick. Doesn't go too deep but it passes the time if you enjoy mild airline investigatory drama. Lacks suspense and a big ending. Cheryl Ladd is enjoyable alongside a reliable supporting cast, but no one is given that much to do.

Well worth a glance, if only to see Cheryl Ladd playing something other than a battered homicidal wife, here she plays the opposite, a tough talking, straight forward gutsy women, a pilots wife out to avenge the culprit who secured her husband in a fatal plane crash, the special effects are a little laughable, but ok, and the acting is a bit wooden by the supporting cast, but you can be sure Cheryl can save any film shes starring in, and did this one justice
