'Airborne' might not be the best action film you'll see, but I rather enjoyed it. The action sequences were nicely done and I enjoyed the all-star cast.
Steve Guttenberg's character, Bill McNeil, is a bit too grouchy, and he really ought to smile more. There was no real reason why he should be so wood-faced from the beginning. Later, yes, it might be acceptable when he realized they've been set up, and off course mourning the murder of his best friend. Nevertheless, Guttenberg is looking fit and strong, and (thankfully) they find enough excuses to display his muscular physique. I didn't mind one bit!
There are twists around every corner. 'Airborne' does play more like an episode from a television action detective series, but there were enough here to keep me interested. Sean Bean's character, Dave, was underdeveloped and it felt like he was only really on screen when needed. Ron Simpson (Colm Feore) was by far the most interesting character.
The film has a thrilling, fast-paced finale. Not bad at all for a film made over two decades ago. I enjoyed this!
Would I watch it again? Yes.
