Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

All this movie did was make my dick extremely hard only for me to find out that not a single person shits their intestines out at any point of the movie. This would've been maybe somewhat decent if any of the women weighed at least 300 kg, but of course they all looked like movie stars. I would rather diarrhea inside my own eye than watch this piece of fascism again. And while I enjoyed it showing how the capitalist US military was hopeless before the volcano, I hated how at the end some survived seemingly supporting this evil capitalist state and not supporting my communist regime.

I had fun reading all previous reviews and I found it so funny that someone could actually consider this a good movie. It is so absurd that its no use describing it entirely, but its release was as bad as The Core, to mention a flick as absurd as it is lame. However, I think it is worth mentioning a few things I learned from the movie (not even enough to reach 100) that get you thinking: - At the speed a jetliner flies, and the time the movie takes, the volcano range must be the length of South America LOL - An army private has more balls than a Colonel. - A tablet can save people's lives when all functions on a plane are screwed. - You can be strapped and dangle out of a flying jetliner at 10K feet flying over active volcanoes and not pass out instantly. I could go on, but I have work to do, so no more to add. Don't waste your time with this, I mean it. I wish there was a voting option of 0 but there ain't, so 1 will have to do.

Oh, gosh, so many h8rs for a film that doesn't aspire to be anything more than worth every penny of your $1.50 at the Redbox.You'd do yourself a favor to cut this The Asylum outing the break your IMDb and Amazon peers have denied.The preposterousness and cheesiness of this comic book melodrama are actually redeemed by some winning performances; colorful and creative, if not convincing special effects; and a cast totally committed to this project, no matter how ridiculous the plot thickens like flowing lava.The story: Some unclear natural disaster has created volcanic activity of such scale that it's essentially turned the West Coast into Mordor.As it happens, an airline (for some reason, just one airline, and not hundreds) is approaching L.A. at that exact time, and ends up flying straight into the volcano.It flies and flies and flies, for the entire 90-minute runtime, somehow, despite engine failure, pilot deaths, insane terrorists, low fuel, volcanic heat, flying lava balls and ash clouds so hot they turn beachgoers into piles of cinders.How will they survive? How can the volcano be stopped?You'll be surprised how much you'll care about those answers.The cast: Dean Cain got too fat to be Superman, so now he turns up in The Asylum roles Greg Evigan turns down to preserve his dignity. He's OK in this one as one of those stock-character passengers who happens to know how to fly a plane once the pilots are dead.Surprisingly endearing is a turn by Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs, famous only as Freddy "Boom Boom" Washington on the '70s sitcom "Welcome Back, Kotter," as a grizzled air marshal. Somebody give this talented Hollywood veteran a cop series.Robin Givens shows up, characteristically devoid of any charm or personality, as a volcano expert who exists only to forward and describe the absurd pseudo-science of the film's main conceit.And as is true in pretty much every other The Asylum flick, the supporting cast and extras act their little nobody hearts out, as if this stupid DTV kerfuffle was "Terms of Endearment." The SFX: Most of the time, it looks like a CGI aircraft superimposed on a Renaissance painting of the Catholic interpretation of hell. But you can't say that's not doggone pretty to look at. Most of this film is the fire-orange hue you wish Crayola made a crayon of when you were an insane little kid.A couple of times, when a piece of lava hits the plane, or as the plane flies over vast magma fields, it looks really cool. Credit the editor as much as the SFX team for creating fine dramatic tension on the cheap.Other times, it looks like a cartoon. Like a "Bullwinkle" cartoon.The lowdown: Look, you watch a movie called "Airplane Vs. Volcano," you know It's from The Asylum, you can't fault the thing for wasting your time because it wasn't "Star Wars."Few production houses require viewers to leave their brains at the door as often as The Asylum. But when we do, we're occasionally charmed by the end product."Airplane Vs. Volcano" is one of those pearls in an otherwise slimy oyster bed.

Caught this low budget made-for-TV crap on Netflix. Wasn't expecting a blockbuster, as some defending reviewers have stated about all of the negative reviews. Did expect that maybe money would be spent better.. Oh, wait... Hollywood.. Where even blockbusters are mostly remakes and reboots with little creativity and talent these days as long as they have A list actors.I am no Dean Cane fan. Not even during the Louis and Clark days. As one reviewer stated, he was Superman. Yes. But he has no acting talent outside of junk movies and TV drama series (and he's Supergirls dad now too)! Hence why he is in sooo many made-for-TV movies where the writers, production crew, and producers should have been publicly hanged instead of wasting money on poorly developed crap.Dean Cane reminds me of that washed up 90210 actor, Ian Ziering. At least Ian did hit a big screen starring lead with that Asylum Productions crap called Sharknado (still haven't figured how that made it)!
