How sad is this?

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

The sad part it has a decent cast but a HORRIBLE script. Man, what a waste of time. Crappy script, bad acting (by decent actors), stupid storyline... if you want to watch a bad movie, go for it!

EDIT: I write my review before the movie was done and it was an interesting story and my questions were answered once I got to the end. The story copied a real life incident and although the movie had problems, it was not bad..
Original post: My biggest problem is after two incidents of severe turbulence, a passengers death, the near death of more due to loss of cabin pressure...and the pilots just continue to their long term destination in Tokyo instead of detouring to the nearest airport. I know it is a movie but you got to have a sense of realism. Oh and not to mention they are in a 747 which carriers like 300 passengers but there seems to be only 2 flight attendants and 10 passengers in first class and a few in another section. Movie had potential though!!

Going in and just expecting another paranormal activity kind of genre and just more of a spirit heavy movie. It took a different path, it wasn't to bad. Had some minor jumpy parts did lack a bit of story description but overall was ok. I liked it a bit more because it was different, never would of thought of this style of movie to be set on a plane, but I think that may of been the reason I give it the 5 instead of 3. But overall the setting was original, but other than that pretty same old plot line. But still ok, would recommend if you couldn't find something late at night or if you don't have any entertainment around the 4:20 mark ...

It's so underwhelming to see a horror movie spams high pitch sound effects, sudden screams and grasping mysterious hands for any sort of shock value. The movie has a good set in plane, but there's no consistency from the horror aspect, it's never clear what it tries to do, it may go for supernatural threat but first act resembles more of infestation scheme. Not to mention the characters are nothing close to likable and the film relies too heavily on plot twist gambit at latter half. There's barely anything to sustain the flight of 7500 until the end.Ancient tricks, as if they are tattooed on a ghost child's hand, such as jittery camera and annoying booms are used excessively. The film doesn't have any coherent soundtracks, it has loud thuds and shouts to signal when the audience are supposed to react. The dark graphic isn't helping either, almost half the movie is shot in blinking lights or just bad lighting.Story is a mixed bag of unexplained mysteries, the movie throws some shady philosophical life gibberish and it comes off at cringe-worthy at best. Acting are sloppy, but it's probably not the actors' fault since the on-screen characters are not identifiable. They are highly unrealistic, created just to fit stereotypical roles.Strangely, there are some names from TV shows here, and while they are not box office veterans, they might have done better with more consistent material. That doesn't stop the film from churning high dose of subplots, none of these pay off in any meaningful way. They only ironically create more plot holes, enough to trip an aircraft into free fall.It has one or two good moments, and the rest is fumbling around in existential crisis. Effects of the smoke and turbulence don't produce claustrophobic thrill, instead they just seem messy and cheap. If audience lasts through the movie they might have a surprising conclusion, as in baffled how it literally happens.This is one flight you'd glad to cancel, for the sake of saving time and money.
