Movie Reviews

BrianOrndorf.com - 7/10 by Brian OrndorfAir America never finds a righteous pace -- it's an expensive ghost town mood with two handsome leads spending their screentime mentally cashing their paychecks.
Portland Oregonian - 6/10 by Ted MaharAir America comes on like a noisy, overproduced sitcom pilot.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Hal HinsonRoger Spottiswoode's Air America is partly glorious, partly junk, but unfortunately not in equal parts.
USA Today - 6/10 by Mike ClarkWhile Gibson and Downey work well together, Air America does tend to be slightly overcooked in the cheap laugh department at the expense of a meandering storyline.
Los Angeles Times - 5/10 by Peter RainerThe movie has no script, and even the better gags - like one in which a couple of the pilots scribble away at coloring books in the backseat of a plane - could have been staged more vividly.
Rolling Stone - 3/10 by Peter TraversThe movie that might have been goes down in flames.
Boston Globe - 3/10 by Jay CarrThis muddled film about a secret C.I.A. project in Laos in 1969 fails on every possible level: as action film, as buddy film, as scenic travelogue and even, sad to say, as a way to flaunt Mel Gibson's appeal.
User Review - 10/10 by Marc MThis movie is proof that critics know nothing at all. Very funny movie.
User Review - 10/10 by Justin RGreat movie ..For having family that flew for Air America during Vietnam and hearing there stories this movie is about what it was like for those pilots
User Review - 10/10 by Liam MI love this film, mainly because of the aviation interest. Always makes me think of mad flying! Excellent! Love the '60s music too.
