 Drop What You Are Doing and Watch This Movie Now! January 30, 2009
Anthony C (NYC)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I just recently watched this film and I nearly dropped dead, from how awesome this movie is. Every actor/actress in this film is completely in the zone the entire time. Not one of them drops a line or zones out for even a millisecond. My friend dropped this movie off the other night and I was getting a little bored of playing Zone of the Enders so I decided to drop the disc into my DVD player. As the laser zoned in onto the disc, action packed poetry in motion erupted onto my HD television (which has a general viewing zone of 31.5"). The first skydiving scene absolutely blew me away. So much so that I accidentally dropped my Pizza Hut PaZone on my lap.
The pacing of this film is impeccable and never drops a beat. The only thing really lacking in the pacing was heart pounding tunes dropping every couple of minutes, such as Kenny Loggins, Highway to the Danger Zone. I don't want to drop too many hints and spoil the thrilling ending to this film but it is definitely one to remember. The first thing I did after finishing the film was look it up on IMDB to see how many awards it won. Needless to say, my jaw dropped when I saw that this film had won nothing. I said to myself, "what am I in the the Twilight Zone or something?"
My "no spin zone" final review of this film is A+. The DVD version looks drop dead gorgeous on an HDTV. I also highly recommend ordering this movie on Amazon. They will drop ship it speedily to your front door within a day!(depending on when you place your order and what time zone you are in)
A Great Movie! August 4, 2008
M. Rushing (Plano, TX USA)
This movie gives a look at the world of sky diving. It is an action crime drama with action, violence, humor, adventure, and a since of excitement that one can only get by taking that long step from a perfectly good airplane into the open sky. Snipes and Yancy Butler at their best!

Although you may hear some complaints over some of Wesley Snipe's recent movies, this one made in 1994 is fairly good. This is partly do to a decent story, cast, and camera work. The directing keeps it tight and focused. The music doesn't date the film badly as I have often seen as a movie hits around ten to twenty years. Fans of skydiving should especially appreciate the numerous jump scenes, including the annual show in Washington D.C. to boot. The story focuses around a skydiving team hijacking a 747 at 38,000 feet to grab a computer hacker being escorted by US Marshals. Later they are tracked and pursued by Snipe's as they try to pull off a heist of data from the DEA computers by doing a jump onto the building. Recommended for family members over twelve for the most part. I am not sure why this has an R rating. There are a couple scenes where people are killed graphically. Good quality DVD with above average replayability. If you enjoyed this be sure to catch "US Marshals", "Passenger 57", and "Art of War".
SKYDIVING AND THEN SOME! September 21, 2007
M. Hartmann (Milan, Michigan United States)
Nope! you sure couldn't get me up there.
Love to watch other people with nerve enough to go up.
U.S. Marshal Pete Nessip is in trouble. He has lost his prisoner. [a twit!] How it was done is a bit of a mystery.
Another mystery is who is the best at sky-diving and where is he? Oh I love this - he has to track down the cadre of techno terrorists.
How and why was this heist planned?
Well second best at sky-diving turns out to be female with a record. She decides to bargain with Pete. She wants to take her team out of her parole officers zone.
The action starts heating up from there. I especially liked the ability to drop onto a specified area. Darn good characters to do it.
The kidnapped [twit] computer expert spent most of his time squeeling in the air. Even I wanted to bump him off.
DROP ZONE fulfilled the expectations of entertainment - can't fault it there. Was never hyped up as a classic. Just good entertainment.
Definitely Recommend - for action - color - gorgeous sky work - decent characters [whatever] - another personal choice movie.
