Be rest assured that Peter Cushing sank his teeth into this role as an airline official. The rest of the cast does a decent job with the uneven script and musical background. In one hilarious scene, the orchestra swells up to dramatic levels merely for a few people entering a automobile! Nothing of any note was happening in the scene to require any dramatic music whatsoever. There are a few decent action scenes in the film, but they are very few, and very far in between. Most of the film is about weasels who try and point the blame on a blameless pilot for various "accidents". In reality, going by the book was causing several of the incidents, but the company was very slow in coming to that conclusion. The flight of this film is uneven, at best, and it is a bumpy ride for all.
