Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

This movie is certainly a metaphorical one. It has some many good ingredients for a mystery movie but for some reason, the producers or director overdid it. It is too long and it certainly does not fit the new language for today's movies. It doesn't have to be like the " Fast and Furious" franchise, non-stop action. Nevertheless, it could be a delicious mystery movie exploring the imagination we have about certain nature phenomena. There are many ways to redo it. I would also cast the same actors as possible and add the new gadgets available today to make the past meet the present in a much more harmonic way. I hope they do it, it is a very good movie, just need some touch up.

Well, it did read better on paper than it looked on TV...But I did not think it was "the worst movie ever made", like some of the reviews I've read claimed. Yes, it was a bit too long. Yes, the acting was sub-par. Yes, the dialogue was utterly ridiculous. Yes, the appearance of the creatures was a bit disappointing.But it is still a good movie overall. One thing going for it: it was very, very suspenseful -- something most modern movies lack, which made me really appreciate this one. The CGI was pretty tacky and exceptionally primitive -- even if you take into consideration the fact that it's a relatively old movie. I've seen some 70s movies with better special effects. I found the characters to be quite well-written, and not too cheesy or stereotypical -- another thing that can't be said for most modern movies. Character development was sufficient, and they were interesting enough, but, like I said, the acting was not very good -- the little girl and the British guy were particularly unconvincing. When the infamous langoliers finally arrive, you can't help but feel a bit disappointed, though. I don't know what I was expecting to see, but something better (more interesting? more convincing?) than this, I suppose. Anyway, despite all of that, I did like the movie and would watch it again. If you're a fan of glossy, fast-paced SCI-FI thrillers, I don't think you'll be particularly impressed with The Langoriers, but I'm not a fan of generic Hollywood action flicks, so I was able to enjoy it.

This is a great thriller based on Stephen King's novel where a group of travelers awaken to realize they are the only 10 survivors on a plane - everyone else has vanished! They land in a remote airport, where everything surrounding it including the air is still. There, they try to find out where all the people went and why they are the only ones standing.It's an exciting unpredictable mini-series full of plot twists and surprising moments, from the suspenseful investigation scenes around the mysterious airport to the eerie and horrific sounds that they hear approaching them.Supported by some pretty good acting, a fast-paced plot and bone-chilling action, this mini-series is one thriller you don't want to miss! Grade B

Some people says that acting and FX are the main purpose in creating a good movie, but here, it was proved wrong. I have to admit that this movie are full of characters with bad acting, i mean all of them (except for Bronson Pinchot who gave an excellent performance as mad guy Mr Craig Toomey). But the worst goes to the little girl, the blind little girl who does not have any emotional feelings and not really up to the standard to what audience always wanted. And the FX is quite poor and cheesy, seems to be cartoons. It really looks funny to me! I wish it could be better in order to turn this into a great movie.But, none of these really affect the greatness of The Langoliers. The main purpose of why this movie is created is because of the storyline, the story written by the master of horror, Stephen King. And, the story are almost exactly accurate to the short story in 4 Past Midnight. The way the story tell us is very entertaining, until I didn't really focus myself on the acting and the FX. It is the story which keep me thinking and wait for what is going to happen at the end of the story. Even though the movie is 3 hours long, but it doesn't make me feel boring because the suspend is there. I'm gonna watch this movie again for the 10th times this afternoon :) forget about the acting and the FX, concentrate on the storyline! excellent (10/10 stars)
