4.0 out of 5 stars Dated but interesting 60s thriller, July 24, 2001

By	Dino (Scotland) - See all my reviews

Jack Lord leads the cast of this predictable but reasonably entertaining 60s drama/thriller surrounding the threatened explosion of a bomb on board an airplane. Lord's performance could be seen as a rehearsal for his Hawaii 5-0 starring role two years later.

4.0 out of 5 stars Jack Lord's Pre-McGarrett Thriller, May 13, 2009

You don't have to be a Jack Lord fan to enjoy this movie, but you will be glad you watched him in it. Indeed, he seems almost to be rehearsing for his upcoming role as McGarrett. This came out in 1967; Jack filmed the pilot for "Hawaii Five-0" in December 1967.

Jack Lord aside, "The Doomsday Flight" is a very good, tense movie. A madman plants a bomb aboard an airliner, and the crew can't find it. Tension is high, and the aircraft is growing low on fuel when they learn that it is an aneroid bomb, which will detonate as the airliner descends. I won't give the rest away. You'll have to see it for yourself.

Edmond O'Brien gives an outstanding performance as the madman.

2.0 out of 5 stars Jack Lord loses his mind, January 14, 2000

By	Jim Kirk (Star Base 12) - See all my reviews

Our favorite detective from Hawaii-Five-O takes a turn down Career Suicide Street. The plane is going to crash and so did Jack Lord's career. It's doomsday all around for this lackluster bit of film.
