An average movie

If I remember it correctly, I actually saw this flick in the movie theater when it was released. I know, it might sound like a daft idea but, when I started to really obsess about movies, I was just about 12 years old, and my first passion were such action flicks. Well, I saw this movie when I was about 14 years, just when I was  discovering the other genres and when I was starting to say farewell to the action flicks I used to love so much. Maybe it explains why I didn’t care much for this movie at all. I mean, sure, if you compare it to all the direct-to-DVD garbage that Wesley Snipes has made during the last decade, it was not really so bad but I thought it was still pretty weak and underwhelming. Indeed, after ‘Point Break’ became a surprising cult-classic, the studios thought they should make some more action flicks about skydiving (see also ‘Terminal Velocity’ which was also released in 1994). However, even though skydiving might seem to be a cool sport,  it is almost impossible to connect it with a sensible plot and, indeed, in this case, the story was just too preposterous. To conclude, even though I have seen worse, I thought it was pretty weak and I don’t think it is worth a look.
