Highly Overrated But Still Good

Great Film overall

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Why would the over-head hand baggage compartment be, "A little crowded up there"? The plane isn't even 1/2 filled. Is this film suppose to be a comedy? Czechs, by the way, can usually speak English. I see he suddenly understands English very well. This film has more disasters than my kitchen when my wife isn't home and I have to do the cooking myself. Yep, it's a comedy. So it never occurred to them to toss ALL the baggage off, huh? A bad comedy. You mean all of that groping and fondling in the toilette and she didn't notice he was packing a pop gun and a lethal spear up his sleeve??? She must be frigid! And say ... isn't his ammo clip already empty from that burst in the baggage room? This is an airborne cross-version of "Casandra Crossing" and "Flight of the Phoenix".

A Saturday afternoon boring enough to surf all the way down to the WB network.A made-for-TV sequel to a horrible movie, and a surreal semi-prequel to a horrible reality.Strongest Points: Solid, workmanlike performances from a mixed bag of has-beens and wannabees. For the most part, everyone hitting the same tone and rhythm, with no-one seeming to be over or under acting relative to anyone else. No attempt to rely on large scale stunts or effects, and some decent, and wisely brief, hand-to-hand combat sequences.Weakest points: The vaguely Slavic second-string would-be villains are written as such thin caricatures, there is no way anyone could have acted his way out of that hole. And how is it the one Slavic guy can't speak a word of English, but can seemingly understand everything everyone else is saying instantly? The lawyer projectile hurled from the aircraft lands neatly on the console in the control tower right in front of Tom Beringer?OK, now for the REAL reason I bothered to watch and review this turkey: Tom Kenny! This is the second un-credited speaking role in which I have found this versatile utility player best known as the voice of Spongebob Squarepants. The other one was "Escape From Mars" (1999), now listed correctly here at our beloved IMDb.So, just how many more un-credited live action speaking roles has Tom Kenny wedged into his workaholic voice-over schedule? This quest is going to lead me to watch way too many hours of late-night made-for-cable filler.My apologies for the excessive use of hyphenated phrases in this review.

A group of freighted passengers, some superficial individual dramatic situations, terrorists, pilot and cabin crew killed or sick, an alert and smart passenger that has never piloted a plane (but knows a lot about planes), a helpful lady, a doctor, some torture and murders, plane with very few fuel, enough just for one trial of landing the aircraft, happy end for the survivals, a beginning of a love (sealed by a kiss) between the smart passenger that saved the survivals and the helpful lady
How many times have we, simple viewers, faced this screenplay? Turbulence 2 is exactly the same. Craig Sheffer has a horrible acting and Tom Berenger, who is a good actor, performs a secondary role in a very forgettable movie. Spending your time watching this flick is pure waste of time. My vote is four.

All airplane flicks tend to throw in the kitchen sink to fill the time but this may have surpassed even the spoofs in having a "and then what happened" motif. How many times can the passengers rise up against the villains and then back down like sheep can you handle? How many shots can you fire in an airplane and not lose pressure? Do you believe you can throw a passenger from a plane at 10,000 feet and have the body crash through the control tower landing in front of the "good guys"? Kidnapping, toxins, fights, missiles but they won't toss the luggage until they find the exact baggage. Gosh that's better than most airlines on a normal day. And so it goes. Acting level? Well, find any one who wasn't a caricature.
Its bad but it starts to turn the corner and just be laughable and that is about all that can make you sit through this movie. Now the real question is what was Turbulence 1 like that they made another one?
