Huit clos aérien. 17 passegers et 5 membres d'équipage embarquent à Honolulu à bord d'un DC-4 pour un vol à destination de San Francisco. Peu après le décollage, un moteur prend feu. Dehors, la tempête fait rage... (Potemkine Films)
Critiques (1)
This would have been an excellent thriller if the creators had tried to escalate the tension a bit more. As it is, it's just too calm, but that doesn't matter so much because you'll still bond with that plane, especially with its characters, and you'll root for them to make it all work out. Surprisingly, John Wayne doesn't hog the spotlight, but lets the entire cast shine, which is a good thing.
