This product is a tax write off.
I hope at least. Then there would be a reason for its existance. But as it stands right now, this is one of the most impressive movies of all time. It fails on EVERY SINGLE LEVEL that makes a "movie". How does one even does that?

A disgrace. The plot is okay but the movie is horrible!!!
The actors dont also know how to act! W.Baldwin is also horrible! What the heck, was he forced into doing this or was the money he got from CYPRUS gvt THAT GOOD????
There is a fund in my country Cyprus that attracts such productions. I feel like they STOLE the money that could go to more serious projects or helps humans! It feels like money laundering or channeling SPECIFIC favorite people GOOD money.
These does not represent Cypriot people. The ppl who play in it are mostly English-Cypriot, Russians and other nationalities.
Pls dont think Cyprus is like that!
Its a disgrace!!
HORRIBLE!

What a flop. no caracter building than two sisters hating eachother starts with walking away from their passports at the cruiseship terminal at cyprus, one crook and his cricket, and 2 womanizers, end up in a balloon, for a sightseeing trip(towed to a car on the ground) but the rope slips due to drunkenheaded knotting and of they go, this is a little head over heel spoil of story, not all but a start.
there are two ways to describe a film like this. its either a desperate try from a newbie director with rich russian friends to make a debut due to ongoing pandemic, or its prepaid by the cyprian tourist council as a commercial for the beautiful country of cyprus seen from the air. or its just nothing at all.
there are green screen filming at high end when ballooning, and the special effects are made with a miniature balloon hanging from a tread, dangling in front of the camera. that is like the ufo'ists did it in the 50's for fame and money.
acting are terribel, william baldwin aint a goldmine and never have been, production made on a dime, story a disgrace, but there are some ballooning equipment so if your a nerd its ,i guess, some fun.
the poster is just a teaser, so drop this motheaten fabric of drunken aeronautism at a hand of an amateur. its a 1 from the grumpy old man

I can't believe Billy Baldwin would ever agree to be in one of the crappiest movies of all time.
What a smudge on his career.
What a smudge on his career.
Yes, its not ideal.
Its having its own buggs & story holes
But its a first commercial debut of russian director. The idea is fresh & not overused like many of Hollywood Blockbusters.
When you are looking on it with not a critical eye but more unbiased - it looks nice & one of the best russian directors had made in adventure genre in last years.
You are writing bad reviews because you try to compare (in your mind) with hollywood & american action film - but its stupid.
Its anotler level, low budget, B-category.
By the way - music is nice.

Well, I like the movie for its colorfulness, plot twists and nice musical background. It's such a light, low-budget movie if you need to spend time looking at the vibrant summer landscapes with no expectations of smth extraordinary.
Still there are questions concerning plotting. E.g. I wanted Baldwin to take a more significant place in the film. Actually, I was waiting for more disclosure of characters.There is also a feeling that the actors are of different professional levels, which creates some kind of incompatibility.
Anyway inn general, there is pleasant aftertaste after watching this movie.

You either survive it or you commit some sort of self-immolation after watching it.
It is bad, really bad. Not even the allure of a balloon flight over Mediterranean islands. The acting of the lead actresses (sic) is on par with kindergarten plays, ans so is the script (sic). I guess someone with deep pockets was feeling somewhat bored and instead of burning money, decided to finance another celluloid atrocity...

What a piece of junk it could be better it should have been better with all the adventures but the two girl on the balloon are really ignoring or I don't know what because she could have saved the guy who was drowning will fall off of the balloon and she just stay there looking at him anybody in their right mind no that you should have jumped and helped them and then she blames the other girl when she is the ignorant naive what a piece of junk don't waste your money on it the little sister have more intelligent that the big sister at least she goes out of her way to find her sister that's the most interesting of the movie.
I usually don't write any reviews for movies but this "movie" was so terrible, I am inspired to try and save others from witnessing this incredibly bad "film". SOS has to be the biggest piece of crap I have ever seen and I have no idea why its even on TV. SOS is with than the crappiest made for TV movie or TV show or anything I have ever seen in my life. I feel bad for the writers, actors, director and anyone else who had to work on such a embarrassingly bad movie. SOS seems like it was written by middle school kids, not the smart middle school kids but the special ones. The dialogue in SOS is so laughably cringe worthy it makes me wonder if anyone even viewed this POS before releasing it.

The only good thing in this movie, is all the beautiful scenary. Cyprus is very beautiful. But the movie...I lost 82 minutes of my life I cant get back. The dialogue, the plot, the Baldwin...nothing really works here. I can only recommend this movie if you are truly deeply bored and without any possibility to watch something else. Who ever came up with this idea should really never ever try to make a movie again or it should be labelled with a "boring" mark of some sort. I usually like the Baldwins but this time it was only for the money because that was not acting..he seemed drunk and without purpose for the rest of the movie.
Don't believe the criticism in the reviews and watch this movie. It's a front to back thriller that will leave you gripping the edge of your seats throughout the whole film. A great story involving a not so discussed subject of disaster in a hot air balloon that will leave you wondering how you would react in the event that you were headed out to sea with no way to escape. Although his part was small Willam Baldwin once again stole the spotlight with his performance as the bloodthirsty villain hellbent on silencing the witness. All the shots of the ballon flowed flawlessly frame to frame and the whole movie was drenched in suspense. Fifteen stars if possible I found my new forever movie!!!

So much promise with those splendid locations, but almost every bit of acting is half hearted. Some characters look interesting but then nothing comes of it. A wee girl who can't be bothered, two not that attractive women stripped down together in a hot air balloon, Baldwin just looks Pervy. Nope, this is a flop, that had souch promise. Don't waste your time gals and guys!

The title of the movie made me assume it was going to be a different type of movie. I don't get where the sacrifice comes to play. Should have simply been titled SOS.
The ratings for this movie are pretty harsh. Im usually a harsh cridict but I don't think this movie was that bad. I watched the whole thing and it kept my interest. In the beginning i even felt a little anxious. Some scenes were poor but overall it's an OK movie.

When the two chicks were on the hot air balloon together and one says we have to take everything off & the skirt. And the other chick takes off her literal skirt and the other one gets irritated cause she didn't mean for her to take her skirt of she meant take the skirt off the hot air balloons basket.
Maybe I'm just a ditz but I totally thought she meant for her to take her skirt off at first haha

The production had all the basic ingredients going for it... but it failed to deliver. A little more effort and polishing could have helped it form into a fairly decent movie.

This is one of the worst movies I've ever watched, I hope it will get better. Stupid me, it should have turned off 20 minutes into the movie. The plot was interesting. 4 people lost in the ocean in a hot air balloon. Police investigation shows incompetence. A few characters died along in the balloon, but the way which how they died was ridiculous. Only good part was the two girls were in bra and underwear for the last half of the movie. If that sounds interesting, it wasn't. The sister of the one lost out of sea was a brat. Her interaction with other people not real, you should have slapped her across the face. How they found the girls was unrealistic given the size of the ocean.
