Review: This movie is pretty poor. It takes ages to get going, and once it does, it isn't anything special. All of the characters are bloody annoying, along with the poor storyline which leads to nothing. Mark Hamill isn't ageing gracefully, and I definitely expected more from him after starring as Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars franchise. It wold have been much better if they had left it as a who dunnit, but the director decided just to make it as a pointless thriller which gets a bit tedious after a while. The explanation on why the passengers switch, makes the movie even more pathetic and a waste of time. Disappointing!Round-Up: What ever did happen to Mark Hamill? After Star Wars his career really didn't kick off, which must upset him because Harrison Ford became a superstar. All of the other actors in the film couldn't really shine because the script was appalling. I'm glad that the film was short because it was going downhill from the beginning.Budget: $1.2million Worldwide Gross: N/AI recommend this movie to people who like there disasters on a plane type of movies, but don't expect anything special. 1/10

yet again a good premise messed up.if this film had been made in the 50s or 60s, it would have been considered a classic.first it would have been directed by some one capable. like hitchcock,second it would have wit and charm from the actors.so when drama ensued you could root for the characters think cary grant.the only actor giving is all was andrew shim. who i hoped would survive till the end.but no it all ended up like guy ritchie does airplane .mockney went boring around 2000,so this dislikable bunch cannot be given any empathy, when they and the film eventually plummet to earth.its a shame coz the set up off being a supernatural being on board could have been brilliant.sadly i think directors don't care anymore what their audience think.and thats why we have this plane wreck of a film instead of a cult classic.

"All it takes for evil to win is for good people to do nothing." During a snow storm in London all flights are canceled except for one. Malcolm (Hamill) is responsible for getting the plane safely to where it needs to be before retiring. Soon after take off the passengers begin to notice strange things going on as one by one the passengers start to disappear. Tensions begin to mount until they find the pilots both dead, then fear takes over. Going in I had pretty low expectations for this one, which may have helped in my enjoyment of it. This was better then I expected and for being another stuck-on-a-plane-in-flight movie this actually had a little twist to the genre. This movie is B-rate at best though as the biggest stars are Mark Hamill and the old guy from "Snatch". This is not really a movie to rush out and buy but this does the job if you are looking for a rental to entertain you for an hour or so. Overall, nothing amazing but entertaining and keeps your attention. I kinda liked it. I surprisingly give it a B.

This movie is poorly made overall due to the bad script and rip-off special effects.The actors do their best with what they have to work with and there is plenty of eye candy. Mark Hamill was quite good, but seemed out of place in a U.K air traffic control building.Some of the special effects have been borrowed/leased from the Harrison Ford movie Airforce One. The external aircraft cut-scenes show that this supposed commercial airliner has the exact same livery as Airforce One. The footage of multiple F-15 jets following Airforce One has also been copied and pasted into Airborne.
