Extremely incredible

Rating: 9/10 (24 September 2005)

No doubt this film has been "nominated for 2 Oscars, another 6 wins & 8 nominations". It really is incredible, and I love it very much. Actually I happened to have watched this movie in 1997 with my siblings, but as a teenager who fancied only comedies, this movie was therefore not very enjoyable back then. However, after watching it for the second time last weekend, I should say Con Air is definitely a 'two thumbs up'. It has lots of action, and although with strong violence and language, the storyline is actually great and quite emotional in the end. Being in prison for 8 years and as a father who has never met his own daughter, u'd imagine how eager Poe would be to go home and meet his family. But when his release came, unfortunately his original flight was delayed and he had to be placed in a transport plane carrying a cargo of convicts including the most dangerous criminals like Cyrus the Virus and his gangs. That's where the action begins. Even though Poe had the opportunity to go out, he decided to stay in the plane in order to help his friend who needed medication, after when his friend's syringes were damaged during the in-flight chaos.
So, in short, Con Air is extremely incredible. Starring the famous actors like Nicholas Cage, John Cussack and John Malkovich, this has made the movie even more fascinating and stimulating. Also, the emotional part in the end of the movie actually made me cry...
