A mysterious illness has broken out, sending its victims into the hospitals convulsing and vomiting and generally looking really gross. The disease displays symptoms that lead super-doctor Tess Martin (Anne Heche) to begin thinking that the Bubonic Plague has erupted. But when a guy named Jack (James Tupper), who just so happens to Speak Truth to Power, gets on the scene, he clues Tess in a frightening conspiracy. Toxic Skies is one of those straight-to-video movies. For being a low budget film shot in Canada, this movie has great cinematography and editing. The movie had more potential if only the writing had been better. The script was too inaccurate and unrealistic. Too much effort was put into the message, and not enough into the quality of the film. The movie is slow.Toxic Skies cobbles a few elements from the movie "Outbreak", particularly why it becomes personally important for Tess to quickly discover a cure. The movie isn't as suspenseful as it could have been. The film touches on an important motivation of Tess' physician work, yet never returns to it. There just seemed like great potential for backstories, or learning more about the two main doctors in general.Anne Heche gives a solid performance as Dr. Tess Martin, but the rest of the cast is lacking of talent.Not great, but watchable....

If I did not love my fiancé I would never have watched any of this so-called movie. I slept through a good portion (thank You God).I could begin with what I think of Anne Heche, but that will be obvious if you have watched any of her prior work, including this film. I hope, and pray, that Anne Heche and Michael Moore never have children together. The abomination would be unfathomable.The movie. If I could give it a negative rating I would. The plot was very cliché. Something I learned in 11th grade NOT TO DO. The acting was sub-par at best, and the topic, well, yeah...totally without basis and fact. The woman, Anne, is (of course) made out to look like she understands ALL and is talented and educated above all the rest of us minions. The opposing view, as in many of Michael Moore's movies and supposed documentaries, are made purposefully to look arrogant and stupid.We have lost wars because of this kind of thinking. Arrogance. Belief in something that has no basis. We have gone to war, also, due to thinking like that.The first reviewer, pretty much sets the tone, by saying that the "chem trails" do not "decapitate." Errr....yeah. One link to a popular dictionary is www.m-w.com. Figure it out.First and foremost, one needs to understand jet propulsion. Was the big billowing cloud around the launches of the Space Shuttles smoke? Again, you can find the truth with just a tad bit of intelligence about chemistry. Hydrogen. Oxygen. Yeah.As I didn't watch the end of the movie where S.W.A.T. men shot randomly, I did look at the sky and noticed that the "chem trails" above my home this evening are, in fact, 'dissipating' nicely. They are not water vapor at all. Anybody that says such is likely also under educated.Take some basic courses on the chemical makeup of what we, humans for those that are concerned, consider "Air." With the addition of some chemical courses, and application of some basic math, you will eventually arrive at a point where meteorology enters the picture. Short story, the average temperature at the top of Pike's Peak (14,400 feet above mean sea level) is about 38 degrees F. Without much thought, and the fact that the 'water vapor' is dispersed at the typical average cruising altitude of 30,000 feet, it would freeze instantly.The entire premise of the myth that this movie is based on is false, prolonged by folks that look for conspiracy, and most likely believe that Area 51 is still 'secret' and 'aliens' did crash near Roswell, New Mexico.If you do not like what I have said, and wish to discuss this further, first, sober up. Next, watch the movie and you will believe and enjoy it. For those that understand a nugget of what I have said: you should be paid to watch this filth.You follow the story? Until next time, this review is brought to you by Srosxi.

I found the premise of this movie fascinating. "Chemtrails" are certainly an interesting phenomena! The white trails behind many planes these days seem to linger for many hours and unlike water vapors (contrails) they do not decapitate.It makes me think why there is so much resistance to a non-biased investigation on chemtrails and what they contain.It is also interesting how the mere interest/questioning of this phenomena is responded to with hostile name calling and ridicule.Many scientists disagree with the government/NASA attempt to explain Chemtrails. This movie provides a plausible theory on the "Aerosol operation" or "chemtrails".

Okay movie about how chemtrails, the vapor trails left by planes, are spreading a deadly virus which makes almost everyone in Spokane sick. Anne Hesche plays a doctor who tries to sort out what is behind the disease and find out a way to stop it from killing everyone.Yet another government is bad movie is an okay thriller. The cast is fine, but its not really given much to do beyond the cliché. Its best not to really think about much of what happens since it doesn't completely make sense. Things are not helped by the feeling that this wasn't really made with any sort of passion, and while its competent its never compelling. I'd wait for cable.
