Viewing Notes

Natural disaster done Cardone style with Hugo Stiglitz once again cast as a captain, this time of an airplane that crashes into the ocean during a hurricane. I loved the plane crash and the storm effects. Unfortunately the second half becomes more LIFEBOAT crossed with ALIVE! complete with cannibalism and selfishness that leads to even greater disaster.
