Audience Member Very trite and tired premise matched with a bunch of non-charismatic actors makes this a hard pass. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member If you want a fun action movie that requires you to ignore basic reality to enjoy it then this is a good movie for you. For me there are a couple basic things that I did not enjoy. First, Harley Quin breaks up with the joke and walks around town without a disguise, she goes to clubs, grocery stores and other locations and no one can find her till her land lord finally leaks her "secret" location. Don't want to spoil the location but it is not in an deserted area. The second thing that bothered me was the fight scenes, for the most part they were great but then they would have a guy run in and instead of attacking he moves to the side and waits to get punched. Not a great way to show how tough these ladies are if the guys are just punching bags. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This is a fantastic movie. It has some of the most daring helicopter scenes ever filmed. The movie is about a former world war 2 veteran, formerly with the Flying Tigers who fought in China defending the Chinese against the Japanese. Now a news reporter in a helicopter, he sees what appears to be the beginning of a bank robbery. Soon he gives pursuit, but they also have a helicopter and try to ram him. He keeps remembering his previous war days as a fighter pilot and now chases the helicopter which has a girl for a hostage. A fast paced action movie, with a wild ending. I highly recommend! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member For the time this was a great movie. Tons of action!!!! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Empty drama with no real point except watching helicopters race through the sky. The antagonists are faceless bad guys which makes the pursuit of them uncompelling. Ralph Meeker, looking terribly dissipated, is wasted on the sidelines and the lead actress is bland and forgettable. On top of all that the print is dark and grainy. If they're going to release old TV movies on disc why can't they at least put out the quality ones like Mrs. Sundance and A Howling in the Woods? Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Weak movie. VERY WEAK Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
