Info

Rock superstar Slade Craven has decided to hang up his rock & roll shoes and has planned something very special for his final show -- instead of a typical concert in some sports arena, he'll play a set aboard a 747 jumbo jet, flying from Los Angeles to Toronto, with the gig broadcast live to millions of fans over the Internet. But what Craven didn't count on is the presence of a deranged fan with a gun who attempts to hijack the plane, throwing the show into chaos and putting the lives of everyone aboard the jet at risk.

Turbulence 3: Heavy Metal Audience Reviews

Manthast Absolutely amazing
Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
Wizard-8 I was kind of mystified by the fact that they made two sequels to "Turbulence", a movie that didn't do well with both critics and the box office. Finally seeing it several months ago, I could understand why. But I decided to see this second "sequel" (it has nothing to do with the events of the first movie... and probably the second movie as well) since I had the opportunity to see it for free.Well, this Canadian movie is one of the few that has something distinctly Canadian in it (the plane is flying to the city Toronto). And the production values aren't as cheap as with many Canadian films, though some of the interiors of the plane look kind of cheesy. (Plus, the stock footage used is VERY obvious, since it came from a much more expensive film.) Also, I found that the choice for the hero chosen to fight the villains on the plane kind of a surprise. Usually this particular kind of character in hostage situations like this remains helpless until the very end.That's about all that's positive I can say about this movie. While I didn't find the movie terrible, I did find it pretty dull. There are pretty much no surprises in this movie. If you've seen one hostage movie, you have seen this one. Plus, the movie took a surprisingly long time to unfold - 3/4 of the movie goes by before the good guys finally start fighting back.Note to Rutger Hauer fans - it's pretty obvious that all of his scenes were filmed in one day.
dbborroughs A dumb direct to video movie about a shock rock concert on a plane taken over by satanists who want to bring about the end of the world and open the gate to hell.Its really a good film thats completely mindless, but a lot of fun. Hey the actors, Joe Mantegna, Rutger Hauer and others got paid and we get to smile knowingly. I think the key to enjoying the film is just giving yourself over to it and accepting it as the mindless, "I can't believe people are actually dumb enough to make a movie like this" sort of way. It is dumb but if you go with it you may have a good time. To be certain this film probably should not have been released in 2001, but it appearance was purely a coincidence.
Stacy Kancheli Made with very little, Turbulence 3 uses its budget very wisely and manages to tell a fairly big story on an intimate movie budget.Great casting is where it started, and it's actually amazing to see the number of really good actors that the producers of the movie managed to assemble.But it would all go for naught without a good story, and a good story it is. Very well-paced, it just keeps you involved with likable characters until the end.Very worth seeing.
TasteBlood It's movies like these that become camp classics. It should have been called Marilyn Manson Vs. Airplane 1975. Ok, so, this "rocker" who looks a lot like a Crow reject and his band decide to webcast an concert aboard a 747 at 35,000 feet, complete with thunder and fog special effects during the show. He brings along his number one fans (who all look like the clearance rack at Hot Topic attacked them) Then satantic terrorists hijack the concert in order to crash the plane into the plains of Kansas (!). Mr. Rocker must then save the day by landing the plane, all while keeping his Crow makeup from smearing, while the "gothic" passengers scream and cry all the way home.Where the hell is Karen Black when you need her?
