Preposterous, predictable, but excessively entertaining, this frenzied thriller draws both story and characters from such action classics as "The Fugitive," "Die Hard," "The Dirty Dozen" and "The Silence of the Lambs."

This is a movie that knows it is absurd, and does little to deny it.

Apart from not knowing to quit while it's ahead, Con Air provides quite an exciting flight prior to its crash and burn.

Con Air is entertaining in an extravagantly decadent sort of way. It just isn't a movie.

Mega-budget action extravaganzas don't get much sillier than this.

There's nary a hint of suspense in West's film, though, mainly because he loudly trumpets the upcoming disasters so early in the film.

Con Air is boring to the marrow.

Con Air is a full on adrenaline rush with Cooke acting from a distinguished cast. Nicolas Cage made another effects packed thriller with this movie. The movie has great comedy as well with many quotable lines. Con Air will delight you with its memorable action and dialogue.

Is Con Air the epitome of 90's cheesy action flicks? Probably. It's got pretty much everything you expect. Over the top acting performances, lots of explosions, a very high level of testosterone and highly unrealistic and over the top action scenes. If you're into 90's action movies and you haven't seen Con Air, you should definitely watch it.

A mostly terrible film, with one of the worst scores ever! Malkovic and Cage do an ok job, but almost everyone else (even some decent actors!) really struggles with the appalling script. The story is lame, the OTT stunts mostly fail and it's just kind of boring and predictable. The terrible rock guitar riff soundtrack through was one of the worst ever (excluding Sweet Home Alabama)! I wouldn't watch it again!
