Airport is a very solid showcase of a fine ensemble cast and probably a worthy adaptation of a book I haven't yet read, but as a drama it's as flat as a runway and as a thriller it's completely ineffective from today's perspective. Without nostalgia for the little, it's impossible to approach this film too sympathetically.

I thought this drama would get to me a bit more, but I was rather surprised by how much space is devoted to characters who aren't always that interesting. The film must be credited with the fact that even after all these years, some scenes still give you a truly breathtaking feeling as if it's really happening. As if you were sitting in that airplane.

It must have been a really big movie in its day. Nowadays it's just a talky and tedious borefest, and I had a hard time getting through it.
