High expectation but disappointed. Why didn't they follow the emergency landing protocol and evacuate passengers from all emergency exits? I know because the director wants to show how happy everyone is. Who cares about evacuation anyway.
Balanced movie between action ,adventure and emotions. Kudos. Actimg of stars, cinamatograpphy VFX, STORY LINE ETC ARE MARVELLOUS. CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL FILM MAKING UNIT, PRODUCER, DIRECTOR OF THE MOVIE.
Based on real incidence, this film is amongst the best of all movies which have flight 🛫 scenes.
Chiense actresses are so cute, clouds and storm lightning are amazing real (thanks to Special Effects), overall watchable movie with family or friends.
This movie is unlike typical Bollywood movie where anything can happen anytime. Though Chinese movie, it was dubbed in Hindi for Hindi watchers.

Suddenly wanna watch some airplane movie and thus chose to watch this movie. Always think that Chinese movie must be very bad but it's better than expected, maybe it's due to the director Andrew Lau? The plot is simple as it's about the adventure of a flight but in a bad weather, and the windows were broken! The cabin was in chaos and one of the pilots even stuck (it's strange he did not die at all!) the bravery of the pilot and the stewardess saved the whole plane. It's amazed as it was based on a true story! The actors and actresses acted good jobs to persuade me they are working a good job! Good!
I'm a 28 year old Australian male. I cried with these people and got scared with these people. When the plane landed I felt safe again. What a movie!!! These guys are very precise in what they do and it gives me a new respect for pilots and airports.
Watch this movie, it should be alot higher than 6 out of 10.
