1.0 out of 5 stars The Disappearance of Fligt 412, June 19, 2006

By	Ellen G. Palmisano "Love Movies" (Sylmar, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have probably never seen a movie with quality as bad as this.
Even my old tapes from TV were 500% better. The picture was faded, the characters looked like they were 90 years old and the sound track was off so badly that it also garbled words, so looking away from the movie did not help. It is also one hour long--but seemed like three-probably a copy of a TV movie as it also had cuts for commercials though I could not find any place that said this. It was advertised as a 2 Hour DVD-and it is--I guess, but I could not see any more of it. At the end of one hour, it just showed credits and it was over. I am returning it-and it is the first copy of a DVD that I have ever returned for picture and sound quality.

1.0 out of 5 stars horrible transfer, November 20, 2005

By	J. Kinney - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This dvd looks as if it was copied from a hand held camera at a theater. I will never buy a dvd from this company(Westlake Entertainment Group) again. I lost my receipt or I would demand my money back.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poses Questions Gets No Answers, February 22, 2008

This review is from: The Disappearance of Flight 412 (DVD)

In THE DISAPPEARANCE OF FLIGHT 412, most reviewers harp on the poor quality of both sight and sound. They are certainly right on both counts. In fact, the entire production smacks of a carelessly done reshoot of a television movie. But my concern is more on the what than the how. In this film, an airforce jet is tailed by three UFOS. Two military jets are scrambled to get a visual. They disappear in a cloud bank, and the rest of the movie details a coercive debriefing of the crew in a manner that seems more likely to result in a coverup than in any sanctioned search for the truth. Glenn Ford is a colonel whose primary goal is to protect his men, and it is only later that he realizes that there are issues involved that imply an ongoing series of coverups authorized at the very highest levels. What this film tells us is nothing new. From Roswell in the 1950s to THE XFILES of the 1990s. the truth is "out there" and when brave officers like Ford buck his superiors to find that truth, they learn to their dismay that bravery comes at a price. THE DISAPPEARANCE OF FLIGHT 412 is a half-hearted attempt to shed some light on a topic that may never be uncovered to the satisfaction of all concerned. It raises some serious issues of the morality of blindly following orders by a shadow government whose only goal in matters like this is to sweep any ET dirt under a carpet, but it ducks their resolution in a manner that leaves the viewer hoping against hope that our "real" government has a higher morality than the one that Glenn Ford so painfully tried to cross.
