It was obvious that when I saw the DVD of this British made scary movie, that despite the good cast of actors, it was an independent and straight to DVD release, and it was admittedly just because of the stars that I was drawn to trying it. Basically it follows the tradition of things like The Twilight Zone, it sees a winter storm approaching, but an airliner takes off despite this, and soon after take-off the passengers realise the plane has hijackers on board who have killed the pilots. The innocents try to go against the terrorists who want to use the plane as a plane, but they are not able to overpower them because of fear, unforeseen incidents happening and violence increasing between them. The airport controllers and staff find out about the problems the plane is experiencing both in the bad weather and inside, so fighter planes take off to follow the aircraft, and they prepare for the consequences of the plane going down if the snow storm worsens or the hijackers was fly it downwards. The passengers argue amongst themselves but try whatever they can to get control of the plane back or escape potential disaster, while the military and airport people on the ground argue about the situation trying to be avoided. Starring Mark Hamill as Malcolm, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' Alan Ford as Max, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade's Julian Glover as George, EastEnders' Billy Murray as Cutter, I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!'s Gemma Atkinson as Harriett, This Is England's Andrew Shim as Sam, EastEnders' Raji James as Kailash, Coronation Street's Chris Brazier as Chris and Craig Conway as Luke. Not even a good cast of recognisable faces could rescue this film from being dull and boring, the stuff on the plane was not shocking, scary or gripping, and the action on the ground was just as uninteresting, I just felt like it wasn't trying to engage and any stupid ideas were thrown in, a rubbish horror thriller. Pretty poor!

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/A I recommend this movie to people who like there disasters on a plane type of movies, but don't expect anything special. 1/10

This film was a huge let down and the reason it is such a big let down is because i feel this film had potential and it could have been good if the film had been executed right but sadly it just flopped and became too stupid for me. I didn't mind the beginning of this film i actually thought it started off okay,sure the acting is not very good and the characters were kind of weird but i was able to put up with that because i thought the film was going to get exciting and develop a Fun story and it was quite interesting to begin with,i liked the idea of a bunch of people being trapped on an Airplaine and i thought it was kind of interesting when people started disappearing on the Airplaine it kept me guessing as to what was going on and i like that in a movie it makes it suspenseful and suspense is never a bad thing in a film,in fact i quite like suspense in a movie it makes the film more mysterious and thought provoking. Sadly this film took quite a while to get started and that's one of the problems with this film and the other is the characters they all seemed to be one dimensional characters with no personality.at the start of the movie we are introduced to all of them at the Airport,the lazy man the fat man,the red head flight attendant lady and the blonde women, some old guy,and some weird mysterious guy,a couple of Army boys and a few others and i found it sad that their characters were written so poorly. this film had very poor characters but i guess that's to be expected from such a low budget film and Bad writing, but it was still disappointing nun the less because some of the scenes on the Airplaine i quite liked,there was a scene on the Airplaine when a couple were together at the front of the plaine kissing and someone came into their room and they asked the person what's wrong? and we never see the persons face, all we see is the person smack the man in the face with a fire extinguisher!. later in the movie when the man and his girlfriend never return to their seats on the Airplaine its pretty obvious what's happened its obvious that the person from earlier killed both of them and that's why they are not back,and from there onward the story becomes quite predictable and its obvious there is a killer on the Airplaine and the killer is obviously one of the passengers and the viewers have to figure out who it is and i didn't mind that idea because i like whodunit stories but i just felt this one was poorly done,you had so many people disappearing left and right and so many things didn't make sense, also there is this one ridiculous scene in the movie when this fat man goes missing and the people are so stupid that they don't even realise he's gone missing!. None of the characters saw the man leave and none of them even seemed to remember him except for one person!.Also how can a man go missing on an Airoplaine? especially a man as big as him?.It does Not make any sense to me and it doesn't make sense that the killer can kill this man and nobody notices! nobody see's or hears a thing?.How was that even possible? i have No idea. Later in the film a few body's are found and its revealed that someone is killing off the passengers,although they didn't really need to explain that because it was pretty obvious what was going on from the start. This film is very predictable and very flawed and the film has a few plot holes and allot of the characters did stupid things which made me not like any of them,and the one guy i did like who happened to be the lazy guy he then started acting stupid too which made me not like him anymore either, and the ending of this film completely destroyed It!. There are so many stupid twists in this film and things that don't make any sense,but the ending was the worst part of the film for me, its the ending that i hated and found the stupidest!. This film has one of the most ridiculous endings iv'e ever seen!. Please Avoid this film! it is very Ridicoulous! and poorly written.

Achieved exactly what it set out for. Great acting, directing, writing, cinematography, lighting, lightning, special effects, casting, vocal coaching, all around superb effort from the cast and director. Screenplay is from a new writer. Looking forward to his up and coming spy thriller. A credit to the genre and 2012 film making in general. The film should be regarded as exactly what it intended, nothing less, nothing more. In that view, it is a modern horror masterpiece, along the lines of Ghost Rig, Sunshine, Below, The Reeds. If you enjoyed any of these, this movie SHOULD NOT BE MISSED. Spiritual successor to Ghost rig, in multiple ways.

This is my first review, I just had to "counter" the obviously producer- written review already here. Do they have no shame? This movie was such a disappointment. Back and forth, yelling, screaming, some blood, some dead people, some footage from the control tower or wherever and some footage of a box. Combine this with an elderly man who has got some insight into Mayan mythology, and you are pretty much set. Could've been so much better, many of the actors actually do a good job and footage/"gore" not so bad. But, as a movie and entertainment product - its a farce.

With my expectations of viewing a 3.0 film this thing might actually have exceeded them, though not too much. There are numerous plot holes & some novice acting throughout but somehow I was unable to stop watching, maybe I'm just a sucker for B movie airplane horrors. There was just enough mystery & level of suspense to rope me in to the end, even though I was sure I would be rolling my eyes over it. Actually there was quite a bit of eye rolling, I laughed at a good part of it. I won't even begin to lay down the plot, I went in blind & I think that's why it worked. There were a few recognizable actors from the UK to give credit to with Craig Conway & Billy Murray, both with long careers in many memorable films, though they may have been limited with the script here. Hell at least it was better than a SyFy channel film although I don't recommend going to any great lengths to obtain this time killer. If you choose to rent it on PPV just be sure it's either on $.99 special or that you just happen to be a fan of the genre in the mood for an off beat suspense/thriller to have fun with while you wait for people to die. I'll give it a 5/10 it tried & while it failed in some areas it was entertaining to the end, not bad for 2AM & a laugh. Anyone who says this is the worst they have seen has a VERY limited experience in the genre!

Boring characters, boring plot, predictable, nothing ever happens, goes nowhere. Absolute British claptrap and a lame attempt at anything resembling suspense, good acting, or even any semblance of being interesting. Avoid like the plague.

Black & Blue productions usually produce some decent titles, however, this must have been contrived from an office party, or worse, for a bet. They crammed so many genres and parodied movies into this one 90minute film, that the viewer is left struggling to keep up, horror/drama/thriller/chiller/psychological/children's/war - they're all there, presumably trying to satisfy anyone who foolishly puts this into their DVD player. The reasonably well known British actors ham it up wonderfully, all their RADA training paying dividends as they munch their way through the abysmal script - clearly ad-libbing the bits they felt warranted more cheese. Set design and the FX are right out of Airport 75, and the cinematographer always seemed to be 5 seconds behind the action - which doesn't bode well for the viewer trying to keep up. I'm still left, even now, trying to work out exactly what the plot was - was it a virus, was it a ghost, was it a poor attempt to copy Quarantine 2, or, was it a cast off from Dickinson's Real Deal coming back to get revenge ? I've no idea, but whatever it was, clearly didn't work. Black & Blue should stick to pwopah notty nuttah stories wif Danny Dyer - at least then, you know what you're getting. Sorry - but save your braincells. 1/10

This isn't very good at all. Its wooden, the men sound like they're mainly extras from Eastenders or are so spineless & pathetic they would say boo to a goose apart from one stupid foulmouthed granddad whose portrayal of a hard nut leads a lot to be desired. From the crew to the SIS this film sucks harder than a Dysan hoover. Basically on a plane, people start disappearing; bodies found in the hold, mouthy passengers get on your nerves. Three quarters of the way through the film you're praying the dam plane crashes and kills the lot of them. A couple of punch ups, usual idiot with a gun (oh yes they let him on a plane with a gun in his luggage) thats the level of realism in this terrible film. It even has the shouty shouty stupid paranoid American, just for good measure

When the snowstorm started i thought the plane was going to crash but was real;lly surprised when it didn't but then even more surprised when it did! \cool film. Acting cud have been better but i liked the look of surprise on their faces when the plane crashed, i was very surprised too and felt i was also on the plane, eek! as i said veeery cool film. I would compare this movie to other similar films with planbe storms and crashes such as the one where the people eat each other, thaT Film surprised me a lot. a VERY cool film. In conclusion this film would get a 10 outy of 10 for surprises and plane crashes. and snowstorms. Spoiler alert.
