Editorial Comments

Product Description:
A prison parolee on a flight home finds the airplane taken over by other criminals attempting to free a murderer.
Genre: Feature Film-Action/Adventure
Rating: R
Release Date: 7-SEP-2004
Media Type: DVD

Amazon.com:
Con Air is proof that the slick, absurdly overblown action formula of Hollywood mega-producers Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer (Top Gun, Days of Thunder, The Rock, Crimson Tide) lives on, even after Simpson's druggy death. (Read Charles Fleming's exposé, High Concept: Don Simpson and the Hollywood Culture of Excess, for more about that.) Nicolas Cage, sporting a disconcerting mane of hair, is a wrongly convicted prisoner on a transport plane with a bunch of infamously psychopathic criminals, including head creep Cyrus the Virus (John Malkovich), black militant Diamond Dog (Ving Rhames), and serial killer Garland Greene (Steve Buscemi, making the most of his pallid, rodent-like qualities). Naturally, the convicts take over the plane; meanwhile, on the ground, a US marshal (John Cusack) and a DEA agent (Colm Meaney), try to figure out what to do. As is the postmodern way, the movie displays a self-consciously ironic awareness that its story and characters are really just excuses for a high-tech cinematic thrill ride. Best idea: the filmmakers persuaded the owners of the legendary Sands Hotel in Las Vegas to let them help out with the structure's demolition by crashing their plane into it. --Jim Emerson

5 out of 5 starsA 3 star movie but giving it 5 to help balance the 1 star reviewss
While the movie is overblown, its is a fun movie and entertaining. It's a nice way to pass the time and good for a rental or pay per view. You could even look for it in the bargain bin. The actors are in better films for sure but that doesn't mean that conair is not worth checking out at least.



4 out of 5 starsACCENT
I thought this movie was very good, theres always a but, Nicolas Cages accent spoiled it for me. He was trying to hard to get it right if you ask me. Great fight sceens thou.



5 out of 5 starsI found this movie to be one of the greatest!
Ever since I seen the movie,I purchased the video and I can watch it over and over.We moved and misplaced it,purchased a DVD and I can watch it all the time.Having everyone enjoy it with me with no complaints.Given a DVD as a present and was greatfull for it.It is a really good movie!!



5 out of 5 starsNic Cage could star in a movie about toliet paper and I would probably love it.
Yes, the movie is implausible and most of the actors are obviously laughing on the inside over their dialogue and motivations, but it's a big-budget action flick, so that's what makes it fun. It has some of the most quotable dialogue in recent memory and it's one of those movies you can watch over and over again just for kicks. Besides, who can resist a movie that has a minor plot point involving a stuffed bunny?



5 out of 5 starsa+
iiI LOVED THE COVER FOR THIS MOVIE. MOVIE IS ONE OF MY TOP 10 BEST.
