rowen6 Joe must have needed money for a new car or something.....this by far was the worst movie I ever watched....acting was terrible, writing was so bad.....technical plot was joke.....the child actor was so bad.......the control tower scenes were a Joke....The plane landing without flaps would have been coming in around 3-400 mph......there would have been a ball of fire.......god was this bad. How this got 3 1/2 starts is any body's guess......On top of everything else....a 727 only has three engines.....most of the movie showed a 707.....the producer and director ought to be shot.....who was the technical adviser.....he must fly Cesna 150's......other blooper was the only plane that could have made the transfer is a C-130 with rear cargo door....and the aircraft pictured in the movie didn't resemble it at all......Geez my intelligence has been so insulted.

lancasterray Rated it 1 only because 0 not available. The girl is pathetically pathetic, the parents are pathetic, the tower crew is pathetic, the pilot of the tanker is pathetic. Ever seen a plane being refueled from the SIDE? The boom is strong enough to support a man? Why not send a pilot to land the crippled plane? Tanker planes don't need indicators or controls, or a co-pilot? I only saw the second half, so I had fun trying to figure out what happened; I speculated that everybody but the girl ate the fish. I expected Paul Ford to come in to talk her down, and fall out of the tower. I kept waiting for Steven Segal. I wanted Montegna to apologize for all the time away from home with the Bureau. I figured the girl would be as effective using the bat on the controls as she was on the boom. But the best part of all is the perfect stop, nowhere near the run-out area, even though the plane came in far too fast, and she took f-o-r-e-v-e-r to throttle back and pop the flaps. Thank somebody for great brakes. Movie must have been made with the intent of it being a tax shelter. If you have the choice, pick the swine flu--it would be less painful.

mrsgillmormadden my first Elisha Cuthbert film and i loved it i rememberer seeing it when i was little and i i was all i wish i was like her...i love this movie despite the haters who gave it a 1 rating...whatever...i had forgotten about it until i saw a replay of the movie on cable...i was all I've seen this before and isn't that Elisha cuthbert!!!!!!!!!!every time its on i feel i have to watch it.its a great movie but you'd probably have to be a certain age range to appreciate it..like the pervy old men probably wouldn't like this film because she's so young and there's like no "HOT" scenes but if ur a teen-parent or even like a lil kid you'd like it..but thats just my stupid opinion

vickie Anyfilm that bears the unfortunate status of being able to make a seven year old guess the ending should be burned. That is why I am so mistified as too why this balding slice of turgid nonsense is still being sold in video shops. I sat down with my dad and my brother about five years ago, I was twelve and my brother was seven. they spent the main bulk of the film trying to figure out how to put a hole in the side of the plane so that they could get the girl out or something(I can't remember exactly) It took a while for someone to already realise that the reason that the plane was in trouble oin the first place was that there was a hole in the plane. The traffic controller then said to the dad( who pointed out the obvious) Now I know why you're the million dollar man. In that case we should all be billionaires! "You have too destroy the auto pilot" "But how" "It's quite complicated I will give you instructions" (About twenty minutes later) "Wait I have an idea"(smashes it with a base ball bat.WELL DUH!!!!!!!!! The worst action thriller(if you can call it that) that I have ever seen
