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.

I love watching airplane movies, but this film put me off!You wouldn't believe it, a rock concert is held on a jumbo-jet!When Slade Craven, a rock singer holds his fair-well concert on a jumbo jet, live on the internet its not long before FBI agent Kate gets on the task of finding out that Slade Craven is a hijacker, and is planning to crash the plane, without anyone knowning on the plane.Why would you hold a rock concern on an airplane anyway? Some scenes during the film you can obviously tell that its being filmed in a studio, the plane width is huge, and I'm sure its a danger hazard having everyone jumping around to music while the plane is flying.Its not worth watching because its plan boring and stupid.Watch the first and second film, the 3rd is enough.

this film was utterly diabolical i enjoyed the first one and the second one because there was suspense this one was a sorry excuse to try and line another directors pocket with millions.come on who can actually hold a rock concert in a 747-400 and then to have it hijacked and the plot of having a hacker trying to sort the mess out was even worse i think it should have never even been released like i say i enjoy the first one and second but this one should have stayed in someones rubbish imagination.and never even been discussed.and to have total unknowns was even nastier.please think twice before releasing a fourth please

I had no idea what to expect when this movie came on Cinemax. At first, it seemed it might be interesting. But it soon disappointed me. I tried to get interested, but had nothing which to grab hold. So, I sit there waiting for this movie to get interesting. Nothing happened. What a complete waste of time. Hardly any action. Hardly any writing. Hardly a plot. Dumb storyline, dumb everything. Bad acting all the way around. Even Rutger Hauer, whom I usually like, seems to be in another movie. Just don't bother wasting your time. Anybody's time is worth a LOT more than this stupid movie. Now, I'm merely babling on because this movie review database requires a minimum amount of words. So, since I have nothing else to say about this movie, this is all you get.

May contain spoilers.You have to wonder how movies like this are made. I have yet to see the first two movies, I first heard of #3, watched it and now assume there are two previous movies. I haven't heard of the Turbulence series before this one came along, but I can't imagine the first two made much money at all.The hero, Slade Craven is little more than a Marilyn Manson wannabe with one big difference. Slade Craven lacks musical talent, William Hung is more talented than this loser. Plus he says "Let's do the hussle" more than anyone should in their entire life time. If he said "Let's go out there and win one for the Gipper", I'd have more respect for him. Heck they could have cut it down to "Let's do it" and he'd seem more Satanic or whatever.The secondary hero is a I337 h4x0r. Who wears sunglasses indoors, a stupid head rag and dresses like he's stuck in the mid-80's. Yeah, an obvious non-hacker type. If they wanted a real hacker, they would have gotten the guy who was Newman on Seinfeld and would have shown up while he was stuffing his face with Nachos while watching a Dr. Who marathon. He teams up with some girl who's a h4x0r with the government, all though they never quite get what part of the government she works for. She's the stuck up girl with no emotion at all and would look hot if she let down her hair and lost the glasses.So anyway Slade decides to have a concert on an airplane. It will be broadcast on the net so that the other 27 fans of his can watch it too. Just so happens that the hacker girl shows up to arrest hacker guy just as the concert starts to go all wrong. Satanic terrorist (Osama is a pansy compared to these guys) hijack the plane in order to crash it after getting 15 million internet viewers in to a Church in Kansas in order to release Satan. Slade is put away for a while and comes back later in the movie when we find out that Slade ain't behind the whole hijack thing. Eventually Slade and the hacker guy hook up on the phone and the hacker talks him through some rough situations.However, the movie goes way over the top of acceptable cheese level when it comes time to land the plane and the hacker uses Microsoft Flight Simulator to help Slade to land the plane. Yeah, ya know that after hours of playing that game as a teenager, I don't feel fully flight certified yet. I get the feeling the writer stole that bit from MST3K: The Movie. If you've read this far, I'm sure you know how the movie ends. With cheese and over acting all around.Good job Canada, yet another example in why you shouldn't make movies. However, feel good that this movie is better than 2 Fast, 2 Furious and Dinocroc, but not by much.
