The closing credits for "Air Panic" list quite a few individuals with foreign-sounding last names, so you may think that this Nu Image production was filmed on their familiar stomping grounds of Bulgaria. Surprisingly, it seems it was filmed state-side, so that may explain why this effort looks a little better than many of their Bulgaria films. Some of the special effects aren't bad for what was a low budget, and the movie is shot and lit fairly well. Still, I was disappointed with this movie. Although I was not offended by the opening as some viewers will be (the movie was made BEFORE 9/11), the movie manages to feel rather flat and surprisingly not exciting despite all the chaos that happens to the protagonists. Those who think this is one of the worst films ever made simply need to expand the amount of movies they see, so they can see real turkeys. Though as I said in my summary line above, I still wouldn't recommend the movie to anyone.
