Diagonaldi Very well executed

PlatinumRead Just so...so bad

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

mark.waltz Don't let the attractive poster/DVD cover fool you. This has a lot of action and thrills, but it is lacking in subtlety and realism. Remember the family driving through earthquake exploding southern California in "2012", then the follow up with them flying? The creators of that scene must have seen this B second feature where a diving plane crashes without exploding and takes off, flying through an inferno without catching fire itself. This surrounds evil Nils Asthers' attempts to hijack the passenger plane to Mexico with stolen military devices, instead going down early where the most absurd situations occur. Pine Thomas productions at Paramount missed the plane (or boat) on this often obnoxious saga that utilizes too Mich humor to hide the fact that the story makes no sense. Pilot Richard Arlen and stewardess Jean Parker quit their regular airline jobs to start a transport plane, taking eloping couples to Las Vegas along the way. Not only is nefarious Asther on board but mismatched and especially annoying Grady Sutton and Marie Wilson who add bubble headed comedy to offset Arlen and Parker's supposedly smart rapporteur. I rolled my eyes with each intended laugh, and ultimately just gave up in trying to figure it all out. The remainder of the cast is filled out with has-beens who were lucky enough just to be minor.

oscar-35 *Spoiler/plot- 1941, A young couple open a new airline for weddings and divorces for their clients going out of state and out of the country. An foreign aircraft spy with a stolen engine part wants to use new airline to escape the war time authorities and to sell his stolen secrets to the enemies of the USA during WW2.*Special Stars- Richard Arlen, Jean Parker, Eddie Quillan *Theme- Americans can't be fooled by foreigners.*Trivia/location/goof- Look for Jean Parker, who will play the first Lois Lane in the TV series, Superman and comedian, Eddie Quillan, who was in the Cable & Laughton 'Mutiny on the Bounty".*Emotion- An enjoyable but rather crazy screwball comedy with spies, airlines, and newlyweds. The fast dialog is enjoyable to hear and see spoken by actors with splendid comedy timing. This film is a piece of history for the wartime era.

MartinHafer This is a B-film that not only had a low budget, but craptastic writing, acting and story. All in all, it was hard watching because it was so incredibly dull.The film is like two films spliced together. The first half is about a jerky guy and his girlfriend quitting a small airline to start their own. None of this is interesting in the least and the romance was far from romantic. The second half is such a change of pace that it just seemed bizarre...and stupid. A guy, out of the blue, hijacks the airline's sole airplane and during this hijacking, you are beside yourself with how stupid everyone acted. For example, when the guy pulls out a gun and takes over the plane, one of the crew members attacks him and tries to disarm him. NOT ONE OF THE PASSENGERS does anything!! They just stand their and offer no help at all--even though the one guy is a crazed psycho hijacker!! Later, in an equally inept scene, the plane supposedly crashes...but there is not crash! They just jiggle the camera to simulate the hard landing...on a plane that was standing still!!! Great special effects, huh?! While there's a little more to the movie than this, the very important question to ask yourself is "who cares!?"--none of it is engaging, some of the characters (the ever-annoying Marie Wilson, among others) are stupid and the film is bad---and should be considered a 'C-movie' if there was such a thing! Dull!

allenk752 A commuter airline plane(Honeymoon Airlines)-- consisting of one plane -- that flies couples to Vegas is hijacked by enemy spies to bring a new transformer for bombers across the border to Mexico. Sounds exciting? It isn't. The first half hour is more silly romantic comedy than action movie, and even when the hijack happens, the suspense is minimal, and the characters too dumb to relate to. One, a Boy Scout scoutmaster, actually starts a forest fire; another, a soon-to-be father, falls over everything in a lame attempt at slapstick. The film is a mish-mosh and not a good one.Strangely, this B film is included in the Combat Pack (20 films)DVD collection available for $10.00 or less. The connection to "combat" or WW II is fleeting, at best.One interesting note, though: horror film icon Dwight Frye (Renfield in the 1932/Lugosi Dracula has a small but typically over-the-top role as an enemy collaborator.All in all . . . a yawner.
