Good But Strange

I consider myself one of the few lucky people who have been able to see this movie. After finding a fairly decent quality copy on ebay, I watched it and it was pretty entertaining, although not as large scale as I imagined. The plane is only a private jet and there are only six people on board. The story is suspenseful, I give it that, but the additional plot lines are kind of ridiculous including a mafia daughter and buying a boat. Well the acting is pretty good compared to other disaster movies of that time and in the end we get to here the untitled theme song by Paul Williams. I guess it's pretty decent comparing it to other movies of that time such as the unintentionally funny "The Concorde: Airport '79"
