adrianjherr Talk about a film that doesn't talk itself too seriously. You'll literally cry tears of catharsis as all your stress and whatever has been getting you down is forgotten and your sins are forgiven.So many good parts... when they have to fix the engine, the first rescue attempt, the entire situation on the ground.Believe it or not you can actually watch this film more than once. I've watched it a few times and each time I notice clearly intentional gaffes for the viewers entertainment. Enjoy!
Matt Hsv This movie was easily the worst movie i've ever seen in my life. The production looked so cheap it looked like the movies special effects were done in paint shop pro. Seriously you would not bother releasing this movie if you made it for how bad it looks.If I saw Airplane vs Volcano at the movies I would walk out of there and ask for my money back. Also if I was an actor in this movie I would be ashamed to be known for this tittle.There is nothing more to say about this poor attempt at a movie other than I with no movie making experience could have done better I Gave it 1 star only because I couldn't give it 0.
wes-connors Volcanic lava appears to eat a man in Hawaii as he talks to Robin Givens (as Lisa Whitmore) on the phone. She has a bandaged finger. The volcanoes are still pretty hungry because they next try to down an airplane flying around the Pacific Ocean. In order to get heroic star Dean Cain (as Rick Pierce) into the driver's seat, the airplane's pilots both die during turbulence. However, the plane goes on auto-pilot, due to terrorism concerns, and just keeps flying around hungry volcanoes. This looks like a job for Superman, but Mr. Cain can only turn into a chubbier Burt Reynolds. Acting from his seat for the entire movie, Cain tensely grimaces...The Kondelik Brothers and the folks at "The Asylum" may have noticed the publicity surrounding the studio's awful movies had reached a feverish pitch with "Sharknado" (2013) and others. "Airplane vs. Volcano" can genuinely classified as hilariously bad. The directors skillfully guide cameras and performers from one ridiculous scene to another, keeping almost everyone's tongue in cheek...The exceptions, top-billed Cain and Ms. Givens, are largely quarantined from the action. Cain ends up contributing mightily to the silliness. Givens is dispensable but sexy. The real "stars" are volcano expert Matt Mercer (as Landon Todd) and Earth-bound specialist Morgan West (as Neil Tully). With the directors' guidance, Mr. Mercer and Mr. West handily steal, and anchor, the movie...Of the supporting characters, officer Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs (as Jim Kirkland) most captures the goofy mood of the story. He consistently portrays his character with both dignity and humor. His is the best-written role and the heart of the story. The highlight may be when handsome auto-body worker Anthony Marks (as Frank Matthews) volunteers to go on a mission outside the flying airplane. Incredibly, they buckle together seat belts and string Mr. Marks out of the plane; you must cross your fingers and hope one of the buckles doesn't come undone. The lovely Tamara Goodwin (as Rita Loss) and crazed David Vega (as Carlos Crieger) fill their roles well...Followers of good bad movies should definitely catch "Airplane vs. Volcano". You'll have a fun flight.****** Airplane vs. Volcano (3/28/14) Kondelik & Kondelik ~ Dean Cain, Matt Mercer, Morgan West, Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs
Leofwine_draca I've come to expect the very worst from these Asylum films, complete with their rubbishy CGI graphics and lame, rip-off-anything-that-goes story lines. But I was completely overwhelmed by the simple fact that AIRPLANE VS VOLCANO manages to be an entertaining movie that held my attention the whole way through.Of course, this is still a B-movie, complete with the lame dialogue, the clichéd characters and the dodgy CGI work that we all know and love or hate, depending on your preference for trash; but it's a mighty fun one at that. The fast-paced storyline sees a down-on-his-luck Dean Cain trying to fly a plane that's trapped on autopilot above a ring of erupting volcanoes. Unlucky, huh? The effects here are wide-ranging and epic in approach, with lots of lava and fireballs and stuff exploding. None of it is remotely believable, but the effort was made, so I commend the film-makers for that. The characters are one-dimensional and the character list includes the expected stock figures: the evil Arab guy, the computer geek, and so on. The cast also contains a few other familiar faces from the past who have now fallen on tough times. But given the outlandish scenario, AIRPLANE VS VOLCANO delivers on its titular promise; everything you can imagine happens, and the action never lets up. It might be hokum, but it's enjoyable hokum all the same.
