The Towering Inferno (1974)
enjoyable although long
I caught this on tv and started watching without knowing what it was going to be about, only that it has famous actors in it. I enjoyed it overall and had fun guessing the end each character would meet.
The beginning was a little bit confusing, as it switched between characters who didn't seem to have anything in common. But this way to introduce the audience to them didn't bother me that much.
Concerning the story, most of it wasn't that realistic but that's what you should expect from a disaster movie, especially from this period.
As it was predictable from the length of the movie, it dragged on at some point (probably because of the amount of characters we followed through the catastrophe). I can't pinpoint exactly what kept me going, although I definitely wanted to know who was going to make it until the end.
