Reno on Altitude

3/10 · Sep 8, 2017

This movie is supposed to be an airborne hijacking thriller. The initial visuals were pleasant enough, but things quickly went downhill. I wasn't impressed with how easily one police officer resolved the situation. It felt like another single-day event film, which seems to be quite common lately. The director is unfamiliar to me, and while I recognize some of the actors, they aren’t major stars or films I’ve seen them in before. The plot centers around a domestic flight that gets hijacked. Like much of the movie, our protagonist, who also happens to be a police officer, finds herself on board when an unidentified group seizes control mid-flight. During the disturbance, she manages to disappear and investigate what's happening. Simultaneously, the hijackers’ plan falls apart amidst the confusion. The reasons behind their actions are eventually explained, leading up to a final showdown where they are defeated. The production quality was acceptable overall, with the exception of the visual effects, which were quite poor—even compared to other low-budget films that offer better graphics. The acting was adequate. The narrative is unremarkable; it’s simply an event-driven film focused on how people would react under those circumstances. It felt entirely unnecessary. Dolph Lundgren's role seemed limited to piloting the plane, which was a real letdown. And the ending was predictably awful. Definitely not worth seeing. _3/10_
