Good concept, poorly executed.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Even though I didn't really care for this movie, I'm shocked that it has a rating of 3.The people who rated this must usually only watch the greatest movies ever made because the average movie I see is much worse. My only real problem with this movie is that it was very predictable.I saw everything coming, including the end.I also didn't care for the love story angle.Why does every movie have to have a love story? It's really strange that Treat Williams is billed as the star because he literally has the smallest part in the movie.When he finally shows up, an hour in, he tries to make a bunch of jokes and some of them are actually funny.Up until he gets there we are treated to a very stereotypical opening where a bunch of self-consumed, spoiled people somehow all end up on the same chartered flight.Of course it crashes and it wouldn't be a movie if they didn't all split up.It's really not bad for this type of movie.I give it five stars.

Extreme Limits AKA Crash Point Zero is a very good film that has a good cast which includes Treat Williams, Hannes Jaenicke, Gary Hudson, John Beck, Julie St. Claire, Ava Fabian, Steve Franken, Susan Blakely, Lorissa McComas, J. Patrick McCormack, Bridget Butler, John Putch, Allan Kolman, Richard Riehle, Sean Kanan, William Monroe, and Jack Shearer.The acting by all of these actors is very good. Lowe is really excellent in this film. I thought that he performed good. The thrills is really good and some of it is surprising. The movie is filmed very good. The music is good. The film is quite interesting and the movie really keeps you going until the end. This is a very good and thrilling film. If you like Treat Williams, Hannes Jaenicke, Gary Hudson, John Beck, Julie St. Claire, Ava Fabian, Steve Franken, Susan Blakely, Lorissa McComas, J. Patrick McCormack, the rest of the cast in the film, Action, Adventure, Thrillers, Dramas, and interesting films then I strongly recommend you to see this film today!

I like Jay Andrews/Jim Wynorski movies simply because they give you a lot of cheesy bang for the buck; they're like TV movies without the good stuff being censored out. I like his whatever-it-takes attitude and give him credit for putting in the long hours it must take to pump out these features. I'll bet there's a lot of headaches involved in obtaining the stock footage, too (I'd love to hear some in-depth stories about how he manages that)! His crew, particularly director-of-photography Andrea Risotto, deserve kudos for giving these pictures a nice "clean", professional look. True guilty pleasures, I always look forward to the next Jay Andrews DVD and generally will sit through the commentary tracks, too!

The number of goofs in this movie almost had me laughing.The fantastic doomsday device is "Tesla's Death Ray." In this movie, the device consists of some electrical apparatus and a set of headphones, which is crammed into a wooden box that can fit under an airline seat. After Tesla journeyed to a remote part of Siberia in 1908, to test his death ray, he found its destructive potential is so great that Tesla never spoke of it again, so say the characters in this movie.Despite a wealth of information available about Tesla's inventions and his notes, the makers of this movie plod onward with this fantastic device and numerous goofs. A geiger counter is used to track down Tesla's electrical device, earphones are used to control and direct its destructive force, Tesla installed a self-destruct mechanism but hid the device in a cave, and Tesla tested the device on "the 13th day of June in the year of our Lord, 1908."Unfortunately, the Tunguska explosion occurred on June 30th, 1908, (not the 13th). Anyone expecting any facts about Tesla, his death ray, or the Tunguska explosion should look elsewhere. This hodge-podge doomsday device is the only excuse for what follows, and with the exception of "Bongo the Bear," I must rate this movie a pointless zero, (no stars).
