What makes it different from others?

A Brilliant Conflict

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

All the hoopla and pomp and circumstances for this maiden flight. BIG DEAL! Just get me to Europe on time Mr. Brady.Actor Robert Reed is the Pilot of the plane. Of course the plane is sabotaged and Our Dear Doctor brings a rare strain of virus aboard which makes for a frustrating finish to a frustrated viewer. The cavalcade of 70's personalities the likes of Bert Convy and Chrystie Jenner who was married to Bruce Jenner and we all know how that turned out! Other actors of interest Peter Graves, Lorne Green who looks more natural in a cowboy suit. Barbara Anderson, George Maharis and Burgess Meredith plus Brock Peters, Doug McClure and Susan Strasberg who probably received an ear full from her Dad for excepting work to complete this disaster film in more ways than one.This movie was doomed from the beginning with the Regis Philbin seal of approval! I was waiting for Capt Stubing Of the Love Boat to come aboard.

I watch a lot of disaster movies, and while I wouldn't place this with the Towering Inferno or The Poseidon Adventure, I enjoyed this a lot. I was surprised it was a TV movie because the acting was so good. They spent enough time for character development. There were several subplots, but that is true for many many disaster movies. I got this movie as part of a collection and some of the movies were really bad. This one was worth at least twice what I paid for the set. I will be watching this movie at least 3 times a year and definitely will recommend it to anyone who likes this kind of film. This movie was well worth my time. I was shocked that the only other review was really bad.

Being a fan of the boys of Route 66, I just had to see this movie. However, I was very disappointed that they never even bothered to give Marty and George one scene together. Nevertheless, I kept watching and laughed all the way through. Of course, I was watching the MST3K version and I would suggest all do the same if you can find it. I mean, George Maharis is mad at Burgess Meredith (who built the plane), so he puts detergent in the hydraulic system, hoping that when things get bad, Robert Reed will turn the plane around. Bobby doesn't listen to him, and well, you can figure out the rest. That, along with a bunch of other ridiculously funny happenings, including nice-guy Bert Convy dating a bimbo (Miss SST!), make this a MUST SEE for fans of all that was bad 70's TV.

This is a very enjoyable disaster movie, about yet another one of those star-filled planes heading for trouble. This time, a Concorde is sabotaged, and if that wasn´t enough, there is also a virus spreading inside the plane. The film has everything an airplane-disaster movie buff could ask for: tacky effects, lots of stars and fun dialogue. Pretty good stuff.
