97 Minutes

I was hopeful at the start, because I was really into an action packed disaster movie, but from the very start I expected troubles ahead...

The bad: this movie is cheaply made and one can tell, Everything from the leading credits, to the sound, to the photography, all these technical aspects are way below average. It's quite cringeworthy to watch these cheap special effects, it's as if we are watching a seventies disaster movie, with lots of ridiculous fake effects.

More bad: what's even worse though is that the many supporting actors unintentionally are becoming a laughing stock, by the really terrible, yet funny way they (try) to act.

And as the final blow this movie simply never ever achieves to thrill for one mere second.

Not any good then? It's absolutely a new low for Alec Baldwin, who is starring in this disastrous flick. Although I must admit his performance was still kinda convincing, because he is still a good actor, running on lower ground though...

Complete waste of time with bad script, bad characters and bad execution. Feel sorry fol Bladwin and Rhyes for their downfall in such bad movies. Not to mention physics, reality and acting. Not even twist at the end can save movie.

I managed to restart watching twice just to see how bad it will end and actualy ends even worse. Even Snakes on plane and some Sharknado movies make more sense. OK, there's some action inserts but nevertheless it's wouldn't change anything in plot even without them.

I give moive 2 stars just because it is too bad to have 1 star. It's nice from time to time to watch such bad movies just to remember, how bad they can.

Pretty mediocre / bad movie in my opinion. It just throws you into it. No build up or anything. Alot of the events that happen doesnt even make sense, a watcher would question it and things are just rushed in. You dont get a feel for any of the characters so you wouldnt really care much about what happens to them really. The government immediately goes to drastic measures as soon as something went wrong?? In all its basic movie everythings really predictable so don expect much

But i can give props to the twist near the end tho.

And lastly the fact that the movie is called "97 Minutes" but it's only 93 minutes long is a bad sign lmao.

Short and to the point: there was so much potential that it is baffling how this movie turned out the way it did. Everything you have seen about plane movies is here, just used in the most un-creative way possible. It is a complete mess. Feels like a first year film school project. The fighting sequences look as if they were rehearsing, the plot predictable and full of cliches, even the VFX is so clean that it looks fake. It will leave you wondering about many things; especially how this mess was green lit to be made and then to be released. Frankly, Snakes on a Plane was better than this and you know how bad that was. Steer clear of this bomb of a movie.

Funny how this films runtime is shorter than 97minutes including credits yet moves so slow it would just fall out if the sky.

What is this movie, and if this was filmed before Baldwins issues, who does he owe? Not even Nicolas Cage would take on something this cheap for a quick buck, it's just trash filmed in an aeroplane hanger. Jonathan Rhys Meyers is certainly suffering for his sins having to take this type of low budget lead, and it's clear he's only doing it 'for the cash', it's all anyone's doing. If there was a casting director they surely need to be blacklisted, their choices were appalling.

Generic everything, poor effects, stupid twists, and the worse most intrusive score I've heard in a long time. It's a slog at 93minutes.

Don't board this one.
