97 Minutes

My god, avoid at all cost, cause if not it could provoke a heart attack.

I am sure if there was a go found me to be able to produce this film, Alec Baldwin most have been the biggest donor of the funds, otherwise this couldn't be released at all.

I mean, this is the baddest film of this year so far. Poor sound, bad script, scholars acting. The bad guys portrait as simple and bad as possible. The pilot's son is like a cartoon implant. The Doctor as many of the other characters are kind of extracted from a bad theatrical representation.

And I thought The Mother and Fast X were the baddest films this year. But this one surpass them by far.

If you could concoct a film that denied you all facts, that could relay a story in disjointed acts, where the edits and acting were cobbled and crude, where the outcomes can't be more distorted and skewed; then sit down, buckle up, as you're in for a ride, watch a plane that's been crippled, without effort just glide, listen in behind doors that can catch all you whisper, it's not long that you think they've all had a good snifter (the writers must have been three sheets at least); be afraid for the money that's been spent of defences, as tugging on wires can outfox all their senses (sight unseen!), be afraid, really worry, you might raise a red flag, if you meet terrorists, with a magical bag, out of which they can conjure an old Russian bomb, and deploy it like they're, in your favourite sitcom.

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.

Another low budget direct to streaming fake action thriller with a washed up former star (Baldwin) appearing for a glorified cameo, and a no name lead doing his best to carry a film weighed down by an abysmal script and amateur direction.

There hasn't been a plane thriller for a while now. The genre had its heyday in the late 90s with Passenger 57, Executive Decision, Con Air, Air Force One, Turbulence and finally had a small revival with Red Eye, Flightplan and Snakes on a Plane. If you enjoyed those, don't get your hopes up. This is bottom of the barrel junk, murkily lit to hide the budget limitations, badly paced and with plot holes big enough to fly a 747 through.

Jonathan Rhys Meyers must be in dire need of cash. This is the second low budget junk movie with him released in a month. He's not the worst actor out there, but I'm not sure he can carry a film. At least not one of this quality, but then again who could.

Alec Baldwin... well we know why he'll take any paycheck he can get now. I think the graphic artist doesn't like him very much. They wisely changed the poster for IMDB, but google the main cover the film, and you will see a hilariously bad photoshop of Baldwin that looks like some grade school kid just figured out the skin smoothing effect on photoshop for the first time. Normally his agent (if he still has one) should have cought that before it went public. But as with most of these direct to streaming movies, no one gives a damn about anything.

If you value your time at all, you'll find a better film to watch.

This film barely even qualifies as a B film, more like a C film. A high school drama class can come up with a better movie. The writing had plot holes, inconsistencies and technical issues, as clearly no research went into any elements of this film - from flying/landing a plane, cabin pressure, mid-air debris explosions, security, etc. Even the dialogue was infantile dramatics and boring nonsense filler for the most part. Writer, producer and actor in this film Pavan Grover apparently is a doctor in real life, yet in the film when the pilot gets shot, his medical training inclination was to put a red tube in one nostril (hardly any first aid kit in the world would have this apparatus in it) and patch him up, so I question his skills as a doctor to be about as good as his writing, which clearly is terrible. The directing was just as bad, and the fight scenes were the worst and laughable choreography I have ever seen. The CGI, especially the flashback bombing explosion was laughable.
