Airborne

Sadly I spent £3.49 renting this film online. If it had cost 29p it would have been too much. But it isn't the money that bothers me, it's the time I wasted watching the film believing that it must, surely, get better at some point. Imagine the worst B movie you can - add in poor special effects, rubbish acting and a storyline worthy of a 6 year old and you might get close to understanding how awful this film is. It wasn't funny, you didn't care if any of the characters died (in fact you pretty much hoped all of them would) and I would go as far as to say that this represented the worst of British filmmaking. There wasn't an option to put less than one star - but if there had have been, I most definitely would have used it!

Pretty sure they won't play this movie in an airplane. But that might be everything this has in common with a series like "Lost" or other movies (Quarantine 2 would be another example of movies not really meant to be played on board of an airplane). But to compare this with those really good movies/series would be unfair. Unfortunately though, one of the biggest assets this movie could have, is not really in the front seat (literally).

I'm talking about Mark Hamill of course. The movie is also pretty decent in the beginning (having some other heavies in it, like Alan Ford), but does lack a stability to it. Characters seem exchangeable and you don't really care for most of them. The revelation isn't done properly, the effects seem decent (though there is nothing big on display here). Logic is thrown out of the window (no pun intended) and other things will annoy you too. Not completely bad, but descending pretty quickly (whatever you might think of the predictable ending).

Overall a rather boring film. The twists were terrible, the story was terrible but had potential, the acting was fine but they were all given a terrible script and story to deal with.

The first review posted is so fake it's not even funny, and to point out: this film does not have the dead reanimated it's just a lie to pull in zombie film fans.

The one good thing about the film is that the plot could of been interesting if it took off much sooner, it took about 50 minutes for the plot to form then the film is over shortly after.

If you want 120mins of people running around a plane screaming and various close-ups of a shaking box then this will be perfect for you.

Well, "Airborne" was nothing at all what I had expected.

The story is about a plane upon which a small group of travelers and flight crew is trapped while some bizarre and macabre things happen around them.

Well, the storyline in itself was unique and original, which was nice for a change, but on the other hand, it was just so unrealistic, stupid and far fetched that it was beyond comprehension.

First of all, why would a major commercial airline send up an airplane in a storm that grounded all flights? And there was less than twenty people in total on the flight, including the staff. It was just so implausible.

The characters in the movie were fair enough, actually, though I personally didn't fully grasp the way that they were behaving in the given situation, and a lot of the things that was done were so out there that I didn't buy into it for one second. The acting was actually alright, the actors and actresses just had some really outrageous characters and dialogue to work with.

Despite these faults and flaws, then "Airborne" was actually fair enough entertainment, because I stuck around throughout the entire movie, wanting to see just what would happen next. However, that being said, this is hardly a movie that I will watch a second time. The movie is not scary, nor does it really manage to work out any great thrills or suspense. It is below average in every sense, unfortunately.

This is my first review, I just had to "counter" the obviously producer- written review already here. Do they have no shame?

This movie was such a disappointment. Back and forth, yelling, screaming, some blood, some dead people, some footage from the control tower or wherever and some footage of a box. Combine this with an elderly man who has got some insight into Mayan mythology, and you are pretty much set.

Could've been so much better, many of the actors actually do a good job and footage/"gore" not so bad.

But, as a movie and entertainment product - its a farce.
