Too Far beyond belief...

Rating: 6/10 (22 October 2005)

to be called a top-notch action flick. The list of flaws, starts with plenty of plot goofs and concludes with an over-sweetened end. The acting itself is basically passable but has its ups and downs throughout the movie.
As usual for the action-movie genre one has to try disregarding all looming goofs and plot contradictions, but in this case some of them just spoil the action and are ,sadly as it is, disturbingly effecting the course of action.
"Con Air" is definitely not all the way disappointing. It's just a great pity that it contained too much of distracting events which are harming the whole atmosphere and makes you think of the potential this movie held in hands featuring such a notable cast and rather stirring scenery.
Hands down, it's recommendable if you seek mind-dulling action with some bright moments for a rainy Saturday Night, but it's not first choice if you're looking for a high-class action flick with an inspiring plot along with some bone-breaking action.
5/10
