Audience Member So what if we invented an airplane that can fly itself? Instantly, I see the worst case scenario here. You know who didn't? The genius who plans an investor flight and installs new software that lets some viruses in so that the plane starts flying like a maniac. So the military says, "Let's shoot it down." And the inventor says, "My wife is on that plane." Hijinks ensue. At least this time Fred Olen Ray has a cast with Casper Van Dien, Nicole Eggert, Brad Douriff and Patrick Muldoon, all of whom are in here for name value and occasionally hang back and allow the other cast members to shine. The strange thing is that the computer malfunctions yet is not evil nor is it out to really kill anyone. So the conflict that you expect in these movies isn't here. There is a scene where Casper flies in some stealth stock footage and appears inside the refueling part of the plane, ready to save every one of us. Anyways, you can kind of consider this a Starship Troopers mini-reunion with Casper and Muldoon in the cast. Unlike the convention that would have them, you don't need to pay $110 for a photo op. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Pure limburger cheese. I think they wrote the script on toilet paper and the actors have as much life in them as a can of Spam. Ugh. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Still trying to finish watching this. The acting, script, story are horrible. The acting.. or lack thereof is plain funny. The entire plot is so silly. Really. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member There really isn't much that is good about this film. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Soooo badly played! What a great conviction in the interpretations of some of the "actors" they must have chosen in some fucking crapy reality shows... Of course, the true ones (Dourif and Van Dien) are the exceptions, but they cannot save it of the wreck, as the script is empty of suspense, originality, stake... In brief, the archetype of the TV movie. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member This was 82 minutes of trivial trash...Turbulent Skies crashed and burned horribly. The acting was poor, the plot ridiculous and the scenes some of the in the sky flying reminiscent of the movie with Kurt Russell and Steven Segal. I swear the SR-71 connecting with the 747 was straight off of that movie. This was a serious "B" if not "C" movie complete with killer auto-pilot. Avoid this one like the plague...
