    Storyline

    • Trivia
      In the novella, there is no wind, not even a light breeze when they are in Bangor. Since this was virtually impossible to execute for the movie they simply created dialogue to explain that even with a wind down here the clouds are not moving.
    • Goofs
      When approaching LAX, Laurel notes that everything looks the same and there's no one there. Except there are cars driving around.
    • Quotes

      [Engle informs the remaining passengers that they are diverting to Bangor]

      Craig Toomy: I have an important meeting in Boston at nine O'clock! And I forbid you... From flying to some whistle-stop Maine airport! DO YOU HEAR ME?

      Laurel Stevenson: Can you please quiet down? You're scaring the little girl.

      Craig Toomy: Scaring the little girl? SCARING THE LITTLE GIRL? LADY! We've been diverted to some tin... pot airport in the middle of nowhere! And I have more important things to think about than scaring a little girl!

    Great film
    I have to say I enjoyed this film a lot. I hadn't heard of it before but I found the film interesting. This film provides an interesting take on time travel not depicted in other time travel movies.

    To be perfectly honest I did not see this as a scare film. It was not remotely frightening to me, but that did not prove to be a negative part to it. The story is brilliantly told, and the sfx weren't that bad. It was clearly an unreal format of effects, but this added to the unique structure.

    Overall I enjoyed the Langoliers, a story of mystery and adventure crammed with plot twists.
