Memorable, crazy movie

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

This was a really good movie if you don't know that a guy who is getting out of prison would never be put on a transport plane with people who are never getting out. There's a scene where a ladder truck moving at full speed has water coming out of the hose. Paaaaalease...

This kind of movie comes once in a lifetime,so don't miss. Really super, Direction,Screenplay,Cast,Sound design & mixing & production... But i missed this movie in Theaters...

This is mean fun stuff. It changed Nick Cage from a semi-romantic comedic lead into a movie bad ass. Fun characters played by a great cast. The pacing, the music and the laughs are dead on. The action is over-the-top. This is an action movie women will watch and really enjoy.

Cameron unknowingly kills one of the drunks and is sent to a federal penitentiary for involuntary manslaughter for seven years. Cameron becomes eligible for parole and can now go home to his wife and daughter and car flying outside of the plane as Poe says on any other day that wouldn't seam normal but this isn't any other day Macho's in a non-stop action movie with lot's of explosions. This is ladies and gentlemen; the ultimate guy movie. it made 100 mill at the box office The movie is filled with crazy over the top characters such as Pinball, Johnny-23, The Marietta Mangler and Sally-can't-dance. It has some of the best casting in a movie I have ever seen. The actors are all simply perfect for their roles. Especially John Malkovich and Steve Buscemi are excellent as always and their characters are the best of the movie even though Buscemi's character wasn't really needed at all. The introduction of the prisoners at the beginning of the movie is completely over the top but I love it! It possibly is one of my favorite scene's in cinema history when we first meet Cyrus the Virus and Diamond Dog, the music really sets the mood in that scene.Of course the story is not important, it's all about explosions, shootings, fist fights and everything in between. But dislike other action movies "Con Air" actually has a story that I like, even though it's completely over the top. Although I think that the movie might had been better of without the Poe's family scene's and story line, even though I still sort of like the emotional scene's between them. Also I think that Nicholas Cage is a bit too much of a good guy in the movie, not only does he help his friend on board, he even finds time to try and save all the cops their lives and that of the bunny present for his daughter.A good thing is the excellent soundtrack by Trevor Rabin and Mark Mancina that gives the movie an extra 'cool' feeling.One little point of critic is that the editing isn't always great. But I can live with that...Perfect entertainment in a crazy over the top non-stop action movie! There are better action movies out there but not much. nominated for 2 Oscars
