The Concorde... Airport '79

As others have said, this movie is so bad it is unintentionally funny. Drones are sent to sink the Concorde on the first flight, yet most of the passengers cheerfully get back on the plane for the second leg of the flight. Of course, there is still plenty of time for hijinks and romance on both legs of the flight. Since this is a disaster movie, there should also be some fatalities. As far as I could tell, nobody died on either leg and there are only two deaths in the film. Possibly the lowest death count in the history of modern disaster movies. Please be aware that the scariest thing about the movie was a George Kennedy lovemaking scene. Jimmie Walker and Martha Raye supply the laughs.

This film along with THE SWARM the year before killed the disaster genre for at least 20 years. First of all, where have you ever seen such a variety among the cast? There is some real talent here, Cicely Tison, Bibi Anderssen, Mercedes McCambridge right along TV hacks Robert Wagner and Susan Blakely. We even get a bona fide international star, Alain Delon. Wasn't Sylvia Kristel in *? I told you this film had everything, even Charo! To punch up the action beyond its three predecessors, the plane is attacked more times than any aircraft can endure. The dialog is as stupid as the subplots. The acting awful, especially from Wagner and Blakely. They had no place out of bad 1970s TV. George Kennedy discusses sex incessantly and considering the source, its downright revolting. Martha Raye has a bladder condition. Susan Blakely has a Farrah hairdo. Both are key to the "plot." They finally gave up and realized they had a turkey and re released it as a comedy.
