When I am an early viewer of a movie I like to warn people, to let them know what they should expect so, here goes: After watching 1 hour of this movie it all became clear to me...they had a budget,they hired the crew, they rented the plane,they paid the cast and when it was far too late they remembered....the effects! Mr Shimizu, the director, as an ingenious Japanese man that he is, came up with the solution: I need a man with a face and at least a hand, and 3 or 4 smoke grenades..and done. There are no special effects whatsoever and no really scary parts,so if they would have tried a little this would've made for a good thriller. I am not saying this is a bad movie, the first 40 minutes were good, you get to know the characters, you get a feel for the atmosphere aboard the plane, you get excited for what's about to happen...then the credits come on! This should have been a horror movie where the fun begins when people start dying and there is nothing they can do about it, but this feels like a documentary about what happens when vital equipment malfunctions, like an 1 hour true story Discovery movie. Some might find it terrifying, but I'm guessing the target audience is people with aerophobia, it's like making claustrophobic people watch The Cube.. My conclusion is: you will be disappointed, more or less depending on how big of a horror fan you are..
