bellino-angelo2014 This is the weakest of the four ''Airport'' movies, and thank God they ended with this. Yet the many negative reviews and the rating didn't stopped me for watching it till the end. And I hate the bad movies with only good actors to publicize it!Exactly, the cast is the only good thing you can find in this movie (if you didn't saw it), and I also liked the actors' previous work.French sex-simbol Alain Delon and Airport veteran George Kennedy are the pilots of the Concorde, along with David Warner as their co-pilot. Susan Blakely stars as a journalist that tries to uncover the actions of a petrol company directed by Robert Wagner (who also send a hitman at the beginning of the movie, who miserably fails). Eddie Albert stars as a famous womanizer with a much younger wife at his side, and Jimmie Walker as a religious sax-player.The story is full of many bad jokes, and one follows one another like lemmings, and I found very stupid and awkward the ending, with the Concorde landing in the snow and with Kennedy that says ''If they find this plane they can make it work, snow or no snow''. I wanted to throw up on the TV screen. And that says all.I recommend this only to fans of really bad movies, with immature humour and non-sensical lines!

mark.waltz Just a year before the comedy classic "Airplane!" came out, the last of the four airport movies was released to universal pans and a dreadful box office. There is good reason behind what the reactions were, but something tells me that the producers knew that they would soon be getting spoofed and decided to toss in some truly lame comedy in an attempt to sabotage the classic parody. It didn't work.In this one, George Kennedy is finally the pilot, actually the lead even though he gets "also starring" billing. I should warn you up from that the recently deceased Mr. Kennedy also gets a love scene. I could laugh with him in the "Naked Gun" movies, but here, I truly felt sorry for him. The film surrounds the flight of the Concorde from the United States to Paris, and then from there to Moscow for the 1980 Olympics. Universal world intrigue has the Concorde being the intended target of missile attacks, and the usual all- star cast of veterans and newcomers is placed in the predicament of going down with the fastest plane in world history. Some stars come off better than others, but poor Martha Raye is relegated to bathroom jokes thanks to a weakened bladder that makes me wonder why she wasn't offered the Depends commercials instead of June Allyson. I guess we have to settle for her for Poligrip. Her scenes are truly embarrassing, and you can only feel sorry for her when she comes out after a particularly violent attempted strike on the plane to announce that the toilet is broken.Cicely Tyson fares a lot better as a concerned mother of a seven-year-old who needs to go through a heart transplant. This actually comes off as two separate things that could have been much shorter, the flight from the states to Paris being over in just over an hour and the second flight from Paris to Moscow giving Charro the opportunity to take over where Raye left off even though Raye, obnoxious saxophone player Jimmy Walker, plane owner Eddie Albert (among others) are still going on. It just gets worse and worse and the convoluted storyline involving corporate Intrigue through corrupt Robert Wagner just gets more confusing as it goes on. Oscar-winning actress Mercedes McCambridge is wasted in a tiny role as the domineering companion to a Russian Olympic star, and to make matters worse isn't even listed in the main cast.I managed to make it through this a second time, having seen it years ago, and found it even worse then I had remembered. The comedy is corny, not at all intelligent like the comedy utilized in "Airplane!" and at times I found myself just rolling my eyes rather than laughing. It is still with the same elaborate quality as the other three in the series, but had it not been for the "Airplane!" release of the following year, this definitely would have been it for the series anyway.

trashgang This is a real disaster. I mean, the whole flick is boring and the effects with the Concorde are ridiculous. There isn't that much that I can say except if you are going to watch it be prepared to have a big laugh.And still people are loving this flick. The effects done with the drone are stupid , it's being keyed and you just can see that it was a key. The Concorde looping on mach 2 or doing other stunts is just laughable.And if you think the first disaster was it be prepared for the second crash. Trying to land in the snow, really...If you do like the Concordde then it's worth seeing for watching take-off and shots made in the air.Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 1/5 Story 1/5 Comedy 2/5 (not intended)

nicklevys How this movie managed to get a rating as high as 4.1 is beyond me. This as got to be one of the worst movies ever.Joe Patroni after being an executive in the first sequel, which could have been logical, is now a pilot. Not only that but a pilot for more than 30 years when he told in the first movie that he was licensed only for taxiing.The plot is so exaggerated it becomes boring and makes no sense at all.Almost every action scene is bad but that stupid idea where you can, (roll the drums) Open a window, flying at Mach 2, to shoot a flare gun at a fighter plane is the most insane. By far the most idiotic move ever seen in whatever movie from whatever country in history, period. No C-list horror movies ever went that low. Compared to that, Jason Vhoorhees's seventh resurrection seems like something you'd see every week in your local newspaper.Finally, everyone and I do mean everyone who knows anything about a plane will tell you that nothing in this movies remotely make sense.I almost forget to tell you about the fakest special effects in the decade. I think they add explosion with more realism on Sesame Street.My only fear is that somebody would sees this without having seen the first one, and think that the series is entirely like this. It already a shame that the original airport has anything to do with this, it would be even worse that people interested in good disaster movies would not see it because they seen airport 79 first.
