Crash Point Zero

Oh yikes - what an howler. Treat Williams must have had a tax bill to pay when he agreed to participate in this nonsense. It begins with some high-altitude antics as a dangerous weapon is being hijacked from one plane to another; one blows up, the other crashes and the survivors must combat pursuing creatures - human and ursine - as well as the weather. The whole thing looks as it was filmed in a snow-globe; the effects are shocking as is the script and after about twenty minutes, I really did pray for the much feared avalanche to put either them, or me, out of the misery this poorly conceived adventure delivered. For an action film, it starts off predictably and implausibly and really goes nowhere fast. The acting is fourth-grade drama school standard and the over-scoring tries desperately to inject some semblance of jeopardy or menace into what is basically just a witheringly dull film.
