Oh my god! what a pathetic film! It's so so ridiculous, I mean, where did they pull this storyline from? Stupidplots.com? I just watched it on TV and I'm still annoyed about it. I mean, why exactly would a lightning strike blast a hole in a plane? I'm, sure they are loads of planes that fly through storms and end up fine, so what's so special about this one? Maybe it's made out of paper? The camera-work was pathetic, I mean, the plane's meant to be in a storm, yet it seems perfectly still, only the other rescue plane shakes...shouldn't it be the other way round? They obviously just shook the camera a little. Nicole's shoe gets sucked out of the hole, but why was there a danger of them getting sucked out of the cabin when it's already been depressurised? And conveniently, her mobile phone doesn't get sucked out, when it's dangling by the edge of the hole. And the idea that she can land a jet with absolutely no experience...that speaks for itself. Overall, insanely predictable and a pathetic attempt at glorifying heroism, but failing miserably. What was the point in this film?
