Pros: The Cast Cons: No Sequel
I was thrilled with this movie. All the action, suspense, and drama was excellent. Nicolas Cage who played Cameron Poe was awesome. John Cusack was great(forget who he played). Last, but not least John Malcovich who played Cyrus "The Virus"...

Pros: There are great action scenes in this movie. Cons: Con Air is a cynical cash grab, not a movie.
Here is how Con Air was chunked together. A roomful of cynics brainstorms: how can we combine the public's worst fears with their greatest prejudices to make the most money? Assemble all the country's most vicious criminals (one from every stereotype...

Pros: a few decent action scenes Cons: unbelievable story line, not typical Cage movie
Nicolas Cage has always been a great actor in my opinion, but this movie fell short of my expectations. Cage plays Cameron Poe, a man sent to prison while his wife is pregnant with their first child. After 8 years, he is finally going to be free to...

Pros: cast, cinematography, special effects Cons: characters, script, story
Production values can do a lot for a film. Take "Con Air", for example. The film has a mediocre script and story, all flash and formula. However, thanks to production values, it is perfectly watchable. The cast, cinematography and special...

Pros: Flashy action, base-level entertainment Cons: It's no Rock
The titles change, but the rest is the same. Summer action movies have become a staple of modern cinema, and Con-Air does little to distinguish itself from the rest. It's got a lot of low-brow entertainment in the form of violence, explosions and bad...

Pros: Fast Paced Action Cons: Nicholas Cage Accent
Volatile gas “hiss” posing a threat as a ticking time bomb. Gunfire suddenly erupts in all direction. It’s a fight between cops and robbers. Explosions set off another explosion like dominoes. “This is your captain speaking…thank you for choosing Con...

Pros: Great Cast and action Cons: Lacks almost everything that makes a movie good
Where should i start with this film. I'll start off with the things I liked...
This movie had some crazy action sequences. Although you know things will end up all happy and stuff, it has some suspense. Probably the best thing about this...

Pros: I dug the stuffed bunny rabbit doll Cons: virtually everything
Compared to the lackluster "Leaving Las Vegas" and the feckless "Face-Off", "Con Air" is a crafty movie. Yet, I must add that that is not real praise. As well as I like Nicholas Cage, I more and more hate his taste in...

Pros: Great Cast Cons: The entire plot.
Now you would think that a film starring some of cinema's best actors would be good right? Well.....
I really don't know what goes through an actor's mind when choosing new material to star in and as far as this film is concerned, I think that...

Pros: good date movie Cons: sad
This movie is a good one. It's about a man who defended his wife and went to jail for it. It's a real tear jerker at some points so i recommend it to all girls. the plot was good. the characters were unique in the way that they worked together and...

Pros: Lots of explosions Cons: Too implausible in too many ways
I call it revolutionary because after I saw it, I revolted against airheaded big-screen action flics -- BIG TIME! What follows is not so much a review as a list of the problems I have with this movie.
Before I go on, though, this movie begs...

Pros: good Cons: none
Con air is an excellent movie starring John Cusak, Nicholas Cage, and my favorite actor John Malkovich is in it. He plays a really mean bad guy. The story is about a really nice military guy who ends up killing a couple of guys while protectting his...

Pros: Cage and Malkovich Cons: There are too many to list here. Read the review!
Once again, here we have another movie with plenty of potential, only to be disappointed with the results. Con Air is the perfect example what not to do in making an action flick. With talent like Nichoas Cage and John Malkovich, Simon West should have...

Pros: Fast Paced, Action Cons: Watched twice to see it all
Talk about an action movie, this one rates high up there (pun intended). Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage) is the guy everyone wants around if they were in trouble. I'd feel safe if my grandmother was in trouble and he showed up to help her. The villians in...
