Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

SnoopyStyle Sara's mother died piloting her small plane. New pilot Sara (Jessica Lowndes) is flying her boyfriend Bruce Parker (Landon Liboiron), her cousin Cory (Ryan Donowho), her best friend Mel (Julianna Guill) and Mel's boyfriend Sal (Jake Weary) to a Coldplay concert. A mechanical malfunction sends them climbing. It's terrifying to fix the problem but then something truly supernatural happens.This is somewhat like a Twilight Zone episode. I say this as a compliment but it also means that it's a hour-long story at best. Firstly, Sal is too annoying. It seems to be an often used trope but not one that I particularly like. It would help if one character is actually funny and likable. These are photogenic young actors playing uncompelling characters. What starts out as a tight little thriller turns into a hodgepodge of supernatural messiness. I like the confined space of the aircraft but the movie has problems.

FountainPen A bunch of stoopid unappealing young kids up in a flimsy airplane, where they do not belong. One idiot even brought his cheap guitar along in the tiny plane -- can you imagine! The girl flying the plane seems to have a nasal/breathing problem, as her mouth is constantly open;maybe she thinks that's sexy. Nope, it sure ain't! All of these kids need some serious acting lessons, and even then I'd give them only a 5%chance of making it at best. Dreadful film with nothing to recommend it. Do something else instead of wasting time on this. Sleeping would be better!! WHO are the people financing such garbage? Do they really think they have a successful movie on their hands? Or perhaps the flick has cost them only a pittance to make, so no big risk?

Rob van Opzeeland So what do we have here? Well, we have a perfect example of the worst type of movie. Some bad movies are so bad that they're fun to watch. Some bad movies have elements that make you appreciate them more than they deserve. And then there's movies like this, that are just a complete waste of your time.The movie starts out as a sort of teen movie, with the classic stereotypes in place. The sports hero who's a total bastard, the artistic boy, the slutty girlfriend of the jock who secretly has got this thing going on with the artistic boy. Annoying, but wait, let's turn to the main attractions. The female lead who's a pilot, and whose mother (also a pilot) died in a plane-crash, and her comic book reading nerdy boyfriend who's the only survivor of her mother's final flight. At this point you seriously should want to punch the writers.After a boring first twenty minutes or so, the movie turns into a small disaster story, about a malfunctioning plane. And to top it all of the final half an hour is devoted to turning this wreck of a movie into a implausible horror story inspired by Twelve Monkeys and HP Lovecraft.All of this could have worked out okay with proper pacing, believable dialogues, and some b quality acting. Unfortunately the plot is neither here nor there most of the time, all actors were borrowed from a soft-drink commercial, and their characters are about as 3-dimensional as a complementary magazine on a Ryanair flight.There was simply no point at which I cared about anything going on. One by one characters fight with each other completely at random. The female lead behaves as a control freak who has no control over anything, neither the plane (although she apparently trained to be a pilot), nor her friends, if you could call any of her passengers friends. If any of my friends behaved like these morons for only one minute I'd ditch them forever. But then again the female lead could be excused to have friends like this, because she is a total bitch herself. After watching them for more than half an hour you just wish the plane crashes, and kills all of them, so you can be spared from having to listen to any more of their annoying yapping.Don't get me wrong. I like B movies, and I like implausible stories, as long as they're made with some conviction. But this entire movie reeks of laziness. Lazy acting, lazy editing, lazy writing, all contributing to this loveless attitude of "that'll do". I'd like to take this opportunity to say no. It won't do. Stop wasting money and resources that could be spent on filmmakers and actors that are actually prepared to make an effort.

Billy_Crash A young pilot flies a twin-engine plane into the dark clouds with four friends and mayhem ensues.Although ridiculous due to outrageous inaccuracies regarding planes, cold and oxygen, the movie did have some decent cinematography. And although some of the dialogue was atrocious, the "Twilight Zone" feel of the story was fairly decent.As someone who is deathly afraid of flying (may kryptonite – besides mathematics), the movie played on those fears, though I had to laugh at some of the flying related abominations. Yes, since it's my fear, I try to know as much about flying as possible.The good news is that this is a fast ninety minutes with some decent tension. If writer Paul Birkett had paid more attention to the realities of flight, this would have been a far stronger film and a better horror.
