Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Con Air is proof that the slick, absurdly overblown action formula of Hollywood mega-producers Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer (Top Gun, Days of Thunder, The Rock, Crimson Tide) lives on, even after Simpson's druggy death. (Read Charles Fleming's exposé, High Concept: Don Simpson and the Hollywood Culture of Excess, for more about that.) Nicolas Cage, sporting a disconcerting mane of hair, is a wrongly convicted prisoner on a transport plane with a bunch of infamously psychopathic criminals, including head creep Cyrus the Virus (John Malkovich), black militant Diamond Dog (Ving Rhames), and serial killer Garland Greene (Steve Buscemi, making the most of his pallid, rodent-like qualities). Naturally, the convicts take over the plane; meanwhile, on the ground, a U.S. marshal (John Cusack) and a DEA agent (Colm Meaney) try to figure out what to do. As is the postmodern way, the movie displays a self-consciously ironic awareness that its story and characters are really just excuses for a high-tech cinematic thrill ride. Best idea: the filmmakers persuaded the owners of the legendary Sands Hotel in Las Vegas to let them help out with the structure's demolition by crashing their plane into it. --Jim Emerson

Following hot on the heels of The Rock, this is another slice of top dolar action. The situations are daft but every last piece of excitement is drawn out. You will not be bored - this is fast entertaining fun.

This is a well-made, very watchable example of a classic Hollywood genre -- the action/adventure film. Nicholas Cage plays Cameron Poe, ex-army Ranger who gets in a bar fight and kills a redneck who was bugging his wife. Poe ends up with a plea-bargained eight-year sentence, does his time without annoying anyone, and is about to be released when he's put on a Federal Bureau of Prisons airplane (known as "Jailbird-1")as a convenient ride back to his hometown. The plane is otherwise filled with the ... Read More

I ALREADY OWNED THIS MOVIE ON DVD SINCE THE PICTURE QUALITY WAS NOT VERY SATISFACTORY SO i BOUGHT THIS BLUE RAY DVD THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL IMPROVEMENT IN THE PICTURE QUALITY EVEN THOUGH IT IS NOT AS GOOD AS THE RECENT MOVIES

Following "The Rock", Oscar winner Nick Cage turned into a deadpan performance, phony southern accent (you should hear his quasi-Italian accent in "Capt Correlli's Mandolin"!!) in this popcorn action flick which is saved by 3 elements: a witty script by Scott Rosenberg, great performances by the Johns, Cusack and Malkovich. Also the supporting cast is also fine with Ving Rhames and Steve Buscemi being the standouts. It's over the top, typical Buckheimer fare but this is enjoyable trash and it looks ... Read More
