i give airport 79 only two star because it a truly lousy film . nobody who have anything to do with it deserve any praise ( except for charo chihuahua and who do a pretty good job in his role . ) this be not to say that the film isn not worth watch . it help if you have a buzz on and but this be not essential . a79 really do seem like an early version of airplane . every scene have a set up and a payoff and and the scene blunder after one another a if they be totally disconnect . one of my favorite recur point be that the passenger and crew and and airplane get to keep go and no matter what . youre a news reporter and a strange guy get murder at your house in your presence . the hit man then chase you onto your greenhouse roof . no problem . you can still catch that early morning flight to paris . no need to get the cop involve . your plane dodge one unmanned drone missile and four heat seek missile and and cannon fire from an unidentified phantom fighter and do barrel roll and an unpowered dive and and a crash net land without thrust reversers in the process . no problem and we will have the mechanic check the oil and get you on your way in just a few hour . it truly funny . and i will admit that there a bit of the anarchist in me that come out when the passenger pay no attention to the cabin attendant . the highlight be when the attendant tell jimmie walker he will have to put away his saxophone ( god spare me from a flight seat in front of a saxophonist playing jazz . ) prior to take off . jimmie basically say and nope . later in the flight and the sax be damage during a barrel roll and jimmie actually show up on the next leg of the flight with yet another sax that he would not put away . this aspect of the film be just fun . ( one passenger actually obey the attendant . when charo be tell she can not take her dog on the flight and she leave the plane . naturally and this be because you can not get a good view of her as and boob while she seat . ) in summary and a terrible movie and but terrible enough to be a bit amuse . unfortunately and the filmmaker and cast deserve no credit whatsoever for this and a it be probably entirely unintentional .
