Audience Member Skydiving might look fun, but it's hard to make a movie around it. Instead, we get a really cheap drama with poorly shot "action" and a lame ending. It leads to unintentional hilarity. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member To be fair, I saw only the Mystery Science Theater version. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member The first full episode of "Mystery Science Theater 3000" featured this movie. Numerous hideous features from "The Skydivers" include badly edited death scenes of skydivers, an actress named Kevin, & a bizarre cast of thousands playing skydiver spectators who apparently outnumber the actors in "The Ten Commandments." Considering that this film is one of IMDb's twenty worst, this movie is best worth watching & laughing at, not with (besides, I'm sure it ain't a comedy). Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I love Flixster's description of this movie, describing it as a "grim crime drama". That's pretty hilarious stuff. The Skydivers is another one of those movies, like a lot of movies I've seen lately, that should just put you right to sleep. It's so boring and anything but gripping, and there's hardly any skydiving to be had. It's more or less scenes of people dancing edited around a plot, or something trying to resemble a plot. I thought it was pretty awful, and I couldn't wait for it to end. The crew at Mystery Science Theater 3000 really try their best to make light of it, but even they're hard-pressed and can't make this boring movie enjoyable. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Stupid, terrible Coleman Francis film. I think the man has never heard of a plot before, and certainly doesn't know anything about pacing. The MST3K for this was pretty good though. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Bad but not the worst. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
