Editorial Review:
While investigating the mysterious circumstances of a beautiful student's demise, a maverick skydiving instructor finds himself entangled in a murderous conspiracy involving Soviet spies and a lost shipment of gold. Logical it ain't, but this entertainingly daft thriller does offer some good-natured satiric riffs on standard action star conventions. Charlie Sheen (throughout most of the film, this not-especially-heroic hero displays the approximate intelligence of a bag of doorknobs) stars along with Nastassja Kinski in a welcome return after a long absence from the screen. Good fun for adrenaline junkies, with a boffo climax involving a midair escape attempt from a free-falling convertible. Writer David Twohy went on to direct Sheen in the considerably more accomplished The Arrival. --Andrew Wright

Terminal Velocity [Region 2] Reviews:
All aspects exceedingly professional, and outstanding.
2007-03-14 -
TERMINAL VELOCITY, released in 1994, is a movie that has aged
extremely well, except maybe for the KGB and end-of-Cold War
mood that was reminiscent of the era after the Berlin Wall
fell, and a new era was unveiled in the former one-party USSR.

The thrill and action aspects of this film, are as good as any
that the best Bond 007 movies had to offer, no doubt.

The 5.1 audio is phenomenal, as are the crisp, crystal clear
digital sequences on the DVD release.

Probably, it will mostly be the below 21 viewers who will
especially appreciate the extensive aerodrome and airplane
settings and sequences, considering that airplanes, even today
in 2007, are still somewhat exotic, as almost nobody has a
pilot's license, or has a parachute jumping training, for that
matter.

For the movie to show Charlie Sheen and Nastassja Kinski at
their best, in those sequences, brings a valuable commodity to
the finished product, which is its entire dream-like
atmosphere. This is what makes believable the otherwise
impossible turn of events, that favor the 2 protagonists against
failure, and against all odds, at each turn and moment during
the course of the movie.

The musical score is also exceptional, for a movie of this
genre, and is a pleasure througout the 90 minutes.

A last note, is the presence of James Gandolfini, early in his
career, presented as a "bad guy" obviously, yet ... this actor,
despite his later similar role in the Sopranos, is perhaps not
that much of a natural as a bad guy - this being one person's
opinion.

Lots of fun
2007-01-09 - I liked this movie. Even though one of the villans was a little over acted. I've seen it several times and enjoyed it a lot. Charlie Sheen is great. Nastassja Kinski is great also and absolute gorgeous. James Gandolfini is excellent.

Oh - My - Gosh!!!
2006-12-22 - Did the other reviewers watch the same movie I just watched??? This movie is so incredibly bad!!! Please tell me it's supposed to be a comedy. I laughed all the way through because it was so ridiculous.

Great Action, Sub Par Plot= Really Enjoyable B Movie
2006-11-08 - Ok, where to begin. This film is like a mix of James Bond, Mission Impossible, Eraser, and maybe a parody film. I only say this because many of the moments in the film are acted or scripted quite comedically. As far as the overall enjoyability goes, it was a very pleasant action film, filled with action comedy, and thrills.



1970 Challenger R/T
2006-04-15 - A decent movie ; best part is that the director, D. Sarafian, has Sheen drive a white, 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T as a inside joke or a tribute to Richard Sarafian (dad? uncle? whatever) who directed the classic, Vanishing Point which had, as one? the? star a 1970 white Dodge Challenger R/T. As in Vanishing Point, car gets totaled...nice touch after 25 or so years.
