Editorial Review:
TouchStone Con Air (Blu-ray)
From the hit-making producerof "The Rock" and "Crimson Tide" comes the hard-hitting blockbuster "Con Air," starring Academy Award(R)-winner Nicolas Cage ("Leaving Las Vegas," Best Actor, 1995; "The Rock"), John Cusack ("Grosse Pointe Blank", and John Malkovich ("In The Line OfFire")! A prison parolee (Cage) - on his way to freedom - faces impossible odds when the maximum security transport plane he's on is skyjacked by themost vicious criminals in the country ... led by the infamous murderer Cyrus "The Virus" Grissom (Malkovich)! Buckle up and hang on tight as explosive high-flying action soars to new heights ... and delivers high-caliber motion picture entertainment!

Description of Con Air [Blu-ray]:
Con Air is proof that the slick, absurdly overblown action formula of Hollywood mega-producers Don Simpson and Jerry Bruckheimer (Top Gun, Days of Thunder, The Rock, Crimson Tide) lives on, even after Simpson's druggy death. (Read Charles Fleming's exposé, High Concept: Don Simpson and the Hollywood Culture of Excess, for more about that.) Nicolas Cage, sporting a disconcerting mane of hair, is a wrongly convicted prisoner on a transport plane with a bunch of infamously psychopathic criminals, including head creep Cyrus the Virus (John Malkovich), black militant Diamond Dog (Ving Rhames), and serial killer Garland Greene (Steve Buscemi, making the most of his pallid, rodent-like qualities). Naturally, the convicts take over the plane; meanwhile, on the ground, a US marshal (John Cusack) and a DEA agent (Colm Meaney) try to figure out what to do. As is the postmodern way, the movie displays a self-consciously ironic awareness that its story and characters are really just excuses for a high-tech cinematic thrill ride. Best idea: the filmmakers persuaded the owners of the legendary Sands Hotel in Las Vegas to let them help out with the structure's demolition by crashing their plane into it. --Jim Emerson

Con Air (Blu Ray)
2008-09-27 - This is my second favorite Nicholas Cage movie after The Rock. Great action escape movie. Kick Back and just watch the villians get smack around pretty good.Great on Blu Ray.

Con Air
2008-09-22 - I was very pleased with the service I recieved from amazon.com when I purchased the dvd "Con Air". The movie sells itself because it is a great movie! However the price, service and shipping service make a real difference. I have found that amazon.com beats all the competitors that I currently shop with. I always check amazon.com to see what their price is before I buy a DVD on-line. I also need to mention, amazon.com gives you a tracking # so that you can follow your order as it goes thru the process of being sent to you. If you have any questions regarding your purchase, just put in your tracking # and you will be able to check on the product you purchased at amazon.com.

Thank you Amazon.com for great service and a great price.

Sincerely,
Dorothy Reamer

Greatest Movie Ever
2008-08-31 - This movie ranks number one on my top 9 movies list. What could be better than this movie? Nothing. It had an all star cast, and had the most original plot of any movie. No other movie has had a group of convicts hijacking an airplane before (Ignore the movie US Marshalls and a few other exceptions). But honestly, this was the greatest acting performance by Nicolas Cage ever. It is a shame he didn't win an academy award for best actor. And how about that John Malkovich. He played a psycho criminal so well, that if you saw him in real life, you would crap your pants on the spot. Dave Chapelle was wonderful too, playing an all too fitting role of a crackhead, just added to the realism. Then there was Colm Meaney. Everyone knows him from being that guy in Under Siege, and his new upcoming role playing apart from Seagal again in the yet to be released Half Passed Dead (I know good movies, and let me tell you, HPD will be number 6 on my top 9 list, and I haven't even seen it yet). Nobody can forget John Cusack being the anal retentive "nature boy" policeman. Ving Rames played a convincing criminal as well. But the greatest character in this movie was Steve Buscemi. Little do you know, but Buscemi was not acting in this movie, he actually is like that in real life. But enough of the cast, back to the plot. What an amazing scenario, to have the criminals overtake an airplane and try to free themselves with Nick Cage (who is in the Italian-American Hall of Fame mind you) stuck in the middle of all of it. You must watch this movie to see what predicaments the criminals get themselves into, and how Nick Cage, aided by Cusack and Meaney on the ground, tries to thwart their plans. I feel this movie should have won multiple academy awards for best writing. The dialogue between characters, especially Malkovich, was nothing short of phenominal. So while I sit here and write my second comment for this movie, YOU need to go watch it. I guarantee your life will be complete upon seeing this movie. A Masterpiece. Belongs in the Walt Disney hall of fame.

full of entertaining actions + Lots of explosions.
2008-08-25 - It's full of entertaining actions and lots of explosions. Don't expect logic from the plot. Over-the top but good acting.

Great action & some good cheeky fun
2008-08-08 - Following hot on the heels of The Rock, this is another slice of top dolar action. The situations are daft but every last piece of excitement is drawn out. You will not be bored - this is fast entertaining fun.
