Warning: Spoilers
This movie is insulting.

The ginger actor sporting the Donald Trump-esque ginger peaked forward swept fringe plays an immediately unlikeable character, whom you'll hate even more once he displays his homphobic comments towards the male cabin crew member. You can't wait for him to die, but feel ultimately cheated by dreadful camerawork that neither linger nor shows any detail of his gratifying demise in the mouth of a shark on a plane.

Minutes prior to the Ill-fated plane landing in the ocean, it is struck by birds flying into engine one. At 20,00ft. You know, by those pesky birds that make their own oxygen above 12,000ft where oxygen is typically not found.

Then the shards of engine casing that fly SIDEWAYS into the plane's fuselage, despite the forward speed of the aircraft being at least 300mph.

Said shards cause blow out of fuselage along one side of plane that lands in the water, but somehow an air pocket exists to keep the film (and some characters) alive.

Rescue divers wearing wetsuits and breathing apparatus from the 1970s appear, and it all gets a bit silly and more insulting.
