Cutaway (2000)
Good action flick, Nice stunts, bad script. Spoiler alert!
Cutaway has some excellent footage of skydiving (I am a novice skydiver myself) that captures for the most part what its really like to jump from a perfectly good plane - and why its so addictive. There were a few technical errors in the jump scenes, and gratuitous "Hollywoodization" of the sport, but they got it sort-of correct.
The dialog and plot however, didn't measure up to the stunts. The premise of the movie - illegal drug delivery via skydivers - was pretty weak. The acting was wooden, and the first third of the movie was pretty repetitive, showing the endless training drills for a skydive formation. SPOILER ALERT Thankfully, Dennis Rodman gets killed off after only a few scenes. Can you spell Peeee Ewwwwe?
Watch this movie for the skydiving footage, and try to suffer through the corny dialog.
