    Product Description
    A daredevil skydiver is hurled into a web of intrigue when his sexy student seemingly plummets to her death. Studio: Buena Vista Home Video Release Date: 10/08/2002 Starring: Charlie Sheen Natassja Kinski Rating: R

    Amazon.com
    While investigating the mysterious circumstances of a beautiful student's demise, a maverick skydiving instructor finds himself entangled in a murderous conspiracy involving Soviet spies and a lost shipment of gold. Logical it ain't, but this entertainingly daft thriller does offer some good-natured satiric riffs on standard action star conventions. Charlie Sheen (throughout most of the film, this not-especially-heroic hero displays the approximate intelligence of a bag of doorknobs) stars along with Nastassja Kinski in a welcome return after a long absence from the screen. Good fun for adrenaline junkies, with a boffo climax involving a midair escape attempt from a free-falling convertible. Writer David Twohy went on to direct Sheen in the considerably more accomplished The Arrival. --Andrew Wright

    4 out of 5 stars Fun, Entertaining Action Movie   May 5, 2009
    Craig Connell (Lockport, NY USA)

    This was a generally fun film that is considered an action movie, and rightly so, but has its share of good comedy, too. Charlie Sheen showed he was well on his way to being successful playing comedic roles, as he's doing on television right now.

    Nastassja Kinski plays the typical new young macho-female role that introduced on screen in the past generation in which females beat up males. Give me a break! Anyway, I still liked her. James Gandolfini was the best of the villains, and also demonstrated how he was about ready to hit the big time, which he did on TV with The Sopranos. Christopher McDonald was another villain in here but was stupid, not fun to watch. He was angry all the time and his bleached hair looked ludicrous.

    There are a couple of outrageous action scenes in this film, most notably when an automobile with Sheen and Kinski still in it is dropped from an airplane! Yes, to enjoy this film don't take any of it seriously! It's simply fast-paced entertainment. For that, it gets a good rating.



    4 out of 5 stars All aspects exceedingly professional, and outstanding.   March 14, 2007
    Pork Chop (Lisbon, Portugal)

    TERMINAL VELOCITY, released in 1994, is a movie that has aged
    extremely well, except maybe for the KGB and end-of-Cold War
    mood that was reminiscent of the era after the Berlin Wall
    fell, and a new era was unveiled in the former one-party USSR.

    The thrill and action aspects of this film, are as good as any
    that the best Bond 007 movies had to offer, no doubt.

    The 5.1 audio is phenomenal, as are the crisp, crystal clear
    digital sequences on the DVD release.

    Probably, it will mostly be the below 21 viewers who will
    especially appreciate the extensive aerodrome and airplane
    settings and sequences, considering that airplanes, even today
    in 2007, are still somewhat exotic, as almost nobody has a
    pilot's license, or has a parachute jumping training, for that
    matter.

    For the movie to show Charlie Sheen and Nastassja Kinski at
    their best, in those sequences, brings a valuable commodity to
    the finished product, which is its entire dream-like
    atmosphere. This is what makes believable the otherwise
    impossible turn of events, that favor the 2 protagonists against
    failure, and against all odds, at each turn and moment during
    the course of the movie.

    The musical score is also exceptional, for a movie of this
    genre, and is a pleasure througout the 90 minutes.

    A last note, is the presence of James Gandolfini, early in his
    career, presented as a "bad guy" obviously, yet ... this actor,
    despite his later similar role in the Sopranos, is perhaps not
    that much of a natural as a bad guy - this being one person's
    opinion.



    4 out of 5 stars Lots of fun   January 9, 2007
    James N. Lewis
    I liked this movie. Even though one of the villans was a little over acted. I've seen it several times and enjoyed it a lot. Charlie Sheen is great. Nastassja Kinski is great also and absolute gorgeous. James Gandolfini is excellent.


    1 out of 5 stars Oh - My - Gosh!!!   December 22, 2006
    E. J. Binnig (Ohio)
    Did the other reviewers watch the same movie I just watched??? This movie is so incredibly bad!!! Please tell me it's supposed to be a comedy. I laughed all the way through because it was so ridiculous.


    3 out of 5 stars Great Action, Sub Par Plot= Really Enjoyable B Movie   November 8, 2006
    Media Lover
    Ok, where to begin. This film is like a mix of James Bond, Mission Impossible, Eraser, and maybe a parody film. I only say this because many of the moments in the film are acted or scripted quite comedically. As far as the overall enjoyability goes, it was a very pleasant action film, filled with action comedy, and thrills.
