Giani C A little cheesy but still entertaining. And George C. Scott did pretty good. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/18/24 Full Review John S The production values in this film were incredible for the time... extremely well shot, and edited. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/31/23 Full Review Red T This is so flawed on multiple levels. The main issue is the horrifcally bad pacing. This is so boring, uninteresting to look at, and hard to follow for 90% of the runtime mainly because of the subpar editing and cinematography. The interior of the blimp is so boring and uninteresting besides the dining area, pilot area, and the deck. The scenes with the blimp flying are the most boring ones also as the thing moves at a snails pace and once you've seen it once there all the same and they drag terribly for like 5-6 seconds and should be 2. I thought this would be a disaster movie. It's actually a spy thriller for 90% of it and a disaster movie at the end. The actual explosion is really well done and blends stock footage really well. It's so well done I can't even tell the difference at points. The black and white really works well here and makes me think the whole thing should've been shot in that. The music is boring and generic as well. The acting is just ok also with boring characters who aren't even German. I don't understand how you don't have Germans not Patton playing Nazis. There is so much boring unneeded scenes like when they sing at the paino, the romance subplot with the countess, and all the other unneeded characters who get focus who don't add up to anything. On top of that they reveal halfway who the bomber is so there isn't even any suspense in that as you know what is going to happen to the ship. This needed German actors, shot in black and white in a surreal style, with more of a cat and mouse mystery, and with an actual blimp to get rid of those boring painting shots. Or make it about a fictional blimp based off true events so you don't disrepect the victims. I can't recommend this to anyone. It fails as a Thriller, disaster movie, and is a boring retelling of a disaster despite the really good 10 minutes of the disaster itself. Just watch the end on Youtube.

Moves at a snails pace, where you'd think they'd be building tension, instead we just get a bunch of needless chit chat. Still, great cast, and impressive finale.
