Summary: "Con Air" not a con.
Review: Con Air is an itensifyingly enjoyable and addictive action flick. It has something for everyone. Cage and Malkovich at at their best leading an all-star cast. This movie is action at it's best, featuring a great plot, convincing and somewhat moving script which is marvellously acted out . I am deeply shocked that many critics have managed to dump this movie and overlook the genious of it all. I saw it 6 times in the cinema when it first came out and 2 months after I bought it on video. Ever since I have seen it over 100 times in the past 2 years and my sisters and brother love it too. I don't find it at all racial, and I think many people will agree that it makes us stop and think about the way we live and what's going on around us. If you havn't already seen Con Air, I suggest you do it fast. It truly is a great movie by a talented director. A top movie for now and many years to come.

Summary: Simply the Best!
Review: This is by far the best movie to roll off the assembly lines in a very long time! Cage at his finest, better than " The Rock " and " Face Off ".John Malkovich, Vingh Rhames, Steve Buscemi, John Cusack, How could you find a better cast of characters? The best part? Garland Greene--- Define Irony? Let's not forget the lovely Miss Potter playing Tricia Poe! Cage's best line? Well hoo-ray for the sounds of f*+#ing Silence! How these others found a way to dump on this movie is beyond my comprehension!

Summary: Good Entertainer.
Review: "Con Air" is an action film where you just sit back, put logic aside, and enjoy the ride. This isn't the action masterpiece that Jerry Bruckheimer's previous film, "The Rock" was but this is still a well-done action movie that manages to keep us entertained and a little thrilled all the way through. The special effects and action sequences are flawlessly done and make this more into a showcase of skill in the action genre. Director Simon West does a great job and the screenplay by Scott Rosenberg has nice comic edges that add a cool lightness to the material. The characters are all entertaining in their weirdness and Nicolas Cage gives a convincing, entertaining and sometimes touching performance as a convict desperate to get home to his wife and kid. I don't know why so many other reviewers have dogged the film for being "dumb." "Con Air" is just in the tradition of silly action fun. This is a movie that is meant to be entertaining, to be fun and funny. I was never bored and always going along.

Summary: Darn, I can't give out ZERO stars
Review: Has there ever been a movie by Bruckheimer and/or Simpson and/or Michael Bay worth the celluloid it was filmed on?Okay, Enemy of the State was a good flick ... but the everything else is trash, and most especially Con Air. Who in Hollywood figured this was a good idea?

Summary: WOW
Review: This is a great movie, quit the special effects. And anyone who thinks that this movie is racist, seriously needs to wake up. I could argue that the film was racist against whites because there were more white criminals than black criminals on the plane, but I don't do I?

Summary: If you like no-brain Action Flicks...
Review: ... where you only have to put up your feet, hang on to your beer and your sweetheart for the occasional distraction :-) this movie is FOR YOU. It's just plain and simple ACTION at it's best. If at all possible, I think they would not even had bothered with a human cast or a "so-called" plot. Best line of the movie: "I told you to put the bunny back into the box" - Cage sports a nasty mane :-) and lots of muscles. He's good in just about every role but then again you can only be so good as your script... Two Thumbs down from me :-), sorry Nic!

Summary: The worst main-stream film of the nineties
Review: There is a school of thought that states that you cannot fully comprehend the impact of a truly great film in one sitting. It requires a few days to fully come to grips with how fine a film it is, how the characters stay with you, how scenes and dialogue may haunt you for days. I would like to use this theory in the reverse; that you cannot truly appreciate a bad film for many days afterwards. At first, you are simply annoyed at having spent two hours of your life in the futile search for entertainment. But over the next few days, you begin to truly loathe the experience. So it is with CON AIR. CON AIR is the worst mainstream film I have seen in a decade, a film so devoid of any ideals other than to make money that it is downright obscene. Now, I don't have a problem with mindless entertainment. I heartily enjoyed FACE/OFF, which I saw the week after this. But where FACE/OFF was a skilled display of mayhem, CON AIR is an ugly, disjointed, and often vile piece of dreck. The characters are, at the best boring, and at the least hidesouly insulting stereotypes. The action is pathetic, and only exist to service the notion that a big explosion is far preferable than any real emotion or actual acting. Speaking of acting, everyone involved reaches career lows. Nicholas Cage is simply unwatchable. Steve Buscemi is boring. John Cusack is lost. And John Malcovich wastes his career away. There was no consideration given by any actor here other than the opportunity to earn a paycheck. The directing is hideous. Simon West proves himself unable to bring forth even the slightest hint of real empathy for his characters, and shows only contempt for the audience. His opening scene, where Cage fights for the love of his wife, is the funniest scene put to film since THE NAKED GUN. Unfortunately, West did not intend it this way. I'm done typing. I can't say anything else. This is easily the worst film of the nineties.

Summary: Con Air flies high
Review: I love this movie, I really do. First time I saw it I was very confused about a lot of things, like why Cage talk the way he does and stuff but after seeing it over and over again I must say it is a great action movie. The DVD- version is nice but doesn't have any special options on it which is very boring. They should make a new DVD with commentary by dir West or something and if there is any deleted scenes that we haven't seen. I bought into the whole plot and I know that it is a loud, action-packed movie with a lot of stupidity but I am not really looking for Shakespeare or Homeros when I watch this movie.
