Crash Point Zero

This movie is an outright fraud. It simply splices in footage of the films, "Cliffhanger"(Sylvester Stallone), "Narrow Margin"(Gene Hackman), and "Long Kiss Goodnight"(Gena Davis). This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. How it managed to get a 5.7 rating I don't understand. I am taking this back to Blockbuster and demand my rental fee back. Has anyone ever seen this done in another film?

If it's variety you're after in an action flick, this is the movie for you.

We've got the CIA; avalanches; diabetic Dads; gullible train conductors; Christmas parades; ludicrous doomsday devices.

Exploding helicopters, exploding trucks, exploding airplanes, exploding cars, and exploding bicycles. (Okay, not bicycles, but only because the producer had already filled the movie's quota of exploding transportation.)

White mountain goats; beautifully appointed vacation houses with working phones out in the middle of nowhere; internet rumors.

And Bongo the Bear.

We also have CIA agent Treat Williams merrily wisecracking all through the film, no matter how many people are slaughtered right in front of him. The CIA obviously gives some of their agents happy pills before every assignment.

Just wanted to add to the comment by Bailey-21(Alabama)...

who said "the entire climax of this... is nearly an exact copy of that film (Long Kiss). Frame for frame, it's a pitiful ripoff."

If you look at this scene 'Frame by frame', you can actually SEE Geena Davis standing by the truck! this is the SAME FOOTAGE!

I wonder if both films were made by the same studio, and they ran out of money on this one, or if this is even legal!

I felt Ripped Off!

Oh yikes - what an howler. Treat Williams must have had a tax bill to pay when he agreed to participate in this nonsense. It begins with some high-altitude antics as a dangerous weapon is being hijacked from one plane to another; one blows up, the other crashes and the survivors must combat pursuing creatures - human and ursine - as well as the weather. The whole thing looks as it was filmed in a snow-globe; the effects are shocking as is the script and after about twenty minutes, I really did pray for the much feared avalanche to put either them, or me, out of the misery this poorly conceived adventure delivered. For an action film, it starts off predictably and implausibly and really goes nowhere fast. The acting is fourth-grade drama school standard and the over-scoring tries desperately to inject some semblance of jeopardy or menace into what is basically just a witheringly dull film.

I gave this movie 1/10, although I have to say I watched it right the way through simply because it made me laugh so much. After I realized how silly and badly put together it was, I started watching out for all the things that didn't make sense - which was basically the whole movie. The acting, the photography, the script, the plot, the taking-off other movies - the whole effort was a joke. How could someone sit back after making it and think 'Yeah, this is a good movie, I'm pleased with it'? Anyway, it did make me laugh, but only because it was so bad.
