3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Action Film for the Easily Entertained, July 15, 2007

"Crash Landing" is yet another direct to video action flick from director Jim Wynorski(who also uses the alias Jay Andrews). Like most of his other films, this makes for good entertainment for the non-discriminating viewer. Also like most of his other films this one has a pretty solid second-string cast. "Crash Landing" boasts Antonio Sabato Jr. and Michael Pare as the top billed stars(though Pare really isn't given much to do).
The plot is pretty straightfoward. Sabato is given the job of escorting a billionaire's 22 year old daughter and her equally ditzy friends on a private plane to her birthday party. Before the flight departs, hijackers kill off the crew one by one and secretly take their places. Scarily enough no one notices until after the plane has already taken off.
The hijackers plan on holding the billionaire's daughter for ransom, but unfortunately for them they didn't know Antonio is on board. He's not willing to give up without a fight.
Although "Crash Landing" is full of plot holes, it's still entertaining. The plot moves along nicely and is filled with just enough twists and turns to keep your interest. If you can look past a few unconvincing visual effects of the plane(and I've seen much worse) you might find "Crash Landing" to be exactly what it was meant to be: an hour and a half of harmless entertainment.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not able to play the DVD, December 22, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: Crash Landing (DVD)

I purchased Crash Landing through Amazon that took three weeks to get to me in Wales UK. I was excited to recieve it but then after realizing it would not play on my dvd player and the only way we would be able to see the movie is by putting it on my laptop and using a HDMI cable into the tv..... a bit of a nuisence having to do all this and will view it in time as we have not had the chance do so as yet. Is there a way of changing this setting?

1.0 out of 5 stars Generational warning !!, May 22, 2011

This review is from: Crash Landing (DVD)

My complaint here is the obviousness of cheap production values. If you didn't grow up on computer-generated "action" games, then the pathetic simulation of a flying aircraft, electric storms and crash landing, blended with real people, is just too distracting and off-putting to be enjoyable. The obvious explanation for this is a low-budget. The cheapness of production is so in-your-face that I bailed after about 5 minutes. What a rip-off. This movie is plainly intented for a demographic mega-accustomed to computerized crap.

In the 1930's such crap-quality special effects would have relegated this film to worse-than 'B' status. This is no "High and the Mighty", "Executive Decision" or other first-rate airplane disaster flick. They didn't even try to achieve "Titanic"'s computerized excellence.
