Summary: Funny + Explosive= A Great Movie
Review: Cameron Crowe(Cage)is just a man in the wrong place at the wrong time. And because of this, he gets sent to jail on an involutary manslaughter charge. After waiting his ten year sentence out, he is finally going home or so he thought. Crowe is forced to hitch a ride home with a convicted felons transport plane. Everything is fine until and Indian Cheif is lit on fire, and two murderers( one being Malkovich) are running around the plane, taking th officers hostage.Now that murders and rapists have control over the plane, Crowe maybe the only one with enough dignity and respect for himself to try to stop them...

Summary: The Third Best Movie of all time!!!
Review: This is one of my top 13 films of all time and it's also the best Action film ever made! thanks to Jerry Bruckheimer. Cameron Poe ( Nicolas Cage) is a Solider who gets sent to prison for manslaughter and 10 years later, he is coming home to see his wife and daughter. He hops up in a airplane called " Con Air" and now it's being held hostage by Cyrus The Virus ( John Malkovic) who demands that the plane will fly all the way to Las Vegas and have everything his way. It's a Great, perfect and Kick-A#$ ride that is one of the best films i've seen in my existnace with ID4, The Fifth Element, Matrix and so many others.You Won't be Disappointed and it's a must own for hard core action lovers and for those looking for a good time. Recommendations: The Matrix, Total Recall, Commando, In The Army Now, The Rock, Die Hard trilogy, Independence Day, Armageddon, and Terminator 2.

Summary: This is one of Jerry Bruckeimer's Greatest Hits!
Review: As I said this is one of Jerry's greatest hits,along with Con Air,Top Gun,and Gone In 60 Seconds!Nicholas Cage is great in this film and Simon West does a great job directing this action-packed hit!I also think John Malckovich does a great job as Cyrus the Virus!It's about a trooper coming home and when he meets his wife at the Diner where she works two locals start crackin' jokes about them and it leads to a fight in which one(or both of the wisecrackers)loses his life.Anyway Cage is sent to prison and after serving his sentece gets out.He then boards a The Jailbird-a plane,and its heading toward home when it is hijacked by the very pisoners its transporting!Thats when the action picks up and the movie gets ROLLIN'!And I'm 14 but the age bar only goes up to 12!

Summary: Don't buy Con Air R2
Review: For all of us living in Europe and having thoughts about buying the region 2 encoding I just wanted to mention that Con Air region 2 is cut for what I think is the german audiences. (I am not talking about the Con Air english reg. 2 which may be uncut) The cuts are: 1. When "Pinball" burns the Indian. 2. When Cyrus burns the drugkingpin. 3. Cyrus falling through electrical lines. 4. Cyrus death scene. The Region 1DVD has no cuts and include both the Trailer and a Teaser Trailer (the region 2 doesn't).

Summary: STANDARD ACTION FARE
Review: Nicolas Cage is the good guy against a plane load of bad guys who are being taken to more maximum security facilities. Cage (as Cameron Poe) , if I recall correctly, was wrongly imprisoned and is going to be released. He has the misfortune of hitching a ride on this plane of very dangerous criminals who are hatching a plan to hijack the plane. John Malkovich is expertly diabolical here, and Steve Buscemi is always a welcome player. And Cage flexes his action hero muscles (who would ever have guessed he had them before The Rock?) Overall this is an entertaining and action-filled film full of memorable action-hero one-liners, a few surprises here and there, major explosions and a happy ending. You could not want more if this is your kind of film.

Summary: Nothing Special
Review: Nicolas Cage's acting hits an all-time low in this movie with one of the worst characters he's ever played. The film tries in numerous way to entertain, but it just didn't click with me.

Summary: Con Air is a wonderful action hit! Pretty violent though...
Review: Con Air is a great action movie, and Nicholas Cage gives a touching, realistic performance almost better than 'The Family Man'. This movie has exquisite action, but it was pretty darn violent! AAAH! I mean, you don't have to SHOW a person being stabbed or shot in the stomach from a frontal view. I mean, "come on!" Well, that's what Con Air is like, but it's worth seeing IF you don't mind the horrible violence in most of the movie. Only see this movie if you are at least 17, not just because of the R rating, but because it might give you nightmares of John Malkovich! starring : Nicholas Cage, John Malkovich.

Summary: Never ending thrill ride
Review: Con Air is the reason they make big screen TVs. If you have or can find someone who has a projector, even better. The action in this flick is top-notch. Not only that, but it keeps giving you more... there's about 3 places it could stop before it does, but in the end you don't mind the extra time because it just means more action. Cage is excellent as the one who "couldn't leave a fallen man behind". The only point I take off is for Cage's annoying attempt at a southern accent. It's only really apparent at the beginning, though, you get used to it as the movie goes on.

Summary: "I'll show you God does exist!"
Review: Cage is a ex ranger, busted for protecting his girlfriend. Now, a bunch of crinminals is being transfered in a plane, called "Jailbird" and Poe takes a ride. Only he is on his way home, when Cyrus the Virus (Malkovich) and his buddies (Vingh Rhames, Steve Buscemi..) take over the plane in an attempt to retain their freedom. Chasing the bird are John Cusack as U.S. Marshal Larkin and a D.E.A agent, portrayed by Colm Meany. Sounds like the plot of a cheap B-Movie? Well, it is! And guess what... Poe's girlfriend is having a baby which is being born while he's in prison. Why do I give this movie 4 stars??? Because in action movies,you can compensate the lack of plot with spectacular, eye-popping action sequences and fine actors who help making the story believable.Nick Cage is playing pretty much the coolest guy on the planet, which sometimes seems a little ridiculous and John Malkovich, what do I need to say? He is the perfect cast for the bad guy because he plays his roles so theatrical, which does give the movie something fresh. The rest of the cast is perfect and espescially Buscemi, psycho as usual, has some of the funniest scenes of the movie. After the fight the action continues to the most electrifying crash landing I've seen as the Jailbird lands. Mark Mancinaand Trevor Rabin composed an energy-packed music score which never lets go and LeAnne Rimes' "How do I live" is one of the most beautiful songs to appear in a happy end of a movie.Dianne Warren has written it and even got an Academy Award nomination for it... So fasten your seatbelts, turn off your thinking and enjoy the ride. Cause that what it's all about. A fun ride!
