Review of The Concorde... Airport '79 (1979) by James H — 02 Jun 2010
42/100. Any movie with Alain Delon, Bibi Andersson, Charo, Martha Raye, Cicely Tyson, Sylvia Kristel and Mercedes McCambridge in the cast is at least worth a look. But, the odd cast combination is unfortunately the only interesting thing about this film.
It is long and drawn out, far too many scenes where not much of anything happens. The score is over done, the special effects are surprisingly poor and obvious. The melodramatic acting is not very good in spite of the caliber of performers, although Martha Raye is memorable.
The screenplay is actually rather stupid and is not in the least bit convincing. Watch Airport or better yet, Airplane! instead.
