4.0 out of 5 stars Great For Helicopter Careers, March 22, 2005

By	S. D. Rapp - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Straight Up - Helicopters in Action (Large Format) (DVD)

This DVD is a great sampling if you're interested in helicopters and/or the type of career opportunities they offer. There's a great sequence servicing high-power lines, some logging action from the Pacific Northwest, and a basic flying lesson! This was originally an IMAX film, so the quality is very good. No, it's not screaming helicopter action, because it shows you the real world of what helicopters are mostly used for. I also recommend checking out the bonus features, there's even better stuff in there.

3.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Flying, July 12, 2007

By	George J. Mcneil (Scottsdale AZ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: IMAX Presents - Straight Up: Helicopters in Action (DVD)

Some outstanding flying - especially the power line repairs, great photography. Pity it was so short. There are a lot more opportunities to capture helicopters in action

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent documentary with amazing footage, February 28, 2008

By	Raymond Debs (Boise, ID USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: IMAX Presents - Straight Up: Helicopters in Action (DVD)

This is an excellent video that I would recommend to anyone interested in helicopters. The videography is amazing, and while the narration is written to be understood by children, it is interesting for adults too (unless maybe they are heli-pilots who already know everything). I particularly liked the segments on the high-power line inspections and the rhino relocation.

My wife is enamoured with the idea of helicopters, and I was happy to encourage her fascination. Hopefully I'll be able to get a license some day.

3.0 out of 5 stars Slow, not very interesting or much action
I enjoy the IMAX movies but this one was boring. I expected the usual IMAX thrills which they could have/should have done with helicoptors zooming down, speeding, etc. Read more
