3/10
Very mundane for a horror comedy...
6 May 2020
Well "Exorcism at 60,000 Feet" is listed to be a horror comedy, and I suppose it is. However, it just failed to turn out to be funny in my personal preference. I didn't really laugh or enjoy what transpired on the screen.

I managed to sit through half of the movie, before I gave up and decided not to finish the rest of the movie. Director Chad Ferrin just failed to entertain me with what he did with the material from writers Robert Rhine and Daniel Benton.

What lured me in to watch "Exorcism at 60,000 Feet" was the fact that it was a horror comedy, and most definitely because it had Bill Moseley, Lance Henriksen and Bai Ling on the cast list. Well, Lance Henriksen wasn't particularly impressive as the pilot in this movie, in fact his performance was just bland. Bill Moseley, while definitely had an interesting character and role, was just not utilized enough in the movie, his talent was just squandered. Bai Ling, however, well she was great in her role, and it was enjoyable to watch her, but she could do only so much to salvage a boring script and plot.

The effects in the movie were adequate. Although you shouldn't expect to be blown away by spectacular Hollywood CGI effects.

It was essentially the storyline that killed the movie for me. I found it to be dull, pointless and rather simplistic. There really was no purpose to the storyline, and that made it feel like a movie without a drive.

"Exorcism at 60,000 Feet" feels somewhat like a strange mutation of "Airplane", those classic comedy spoofs, but it just fails to deliver as much humor and enjoyment as they did.

My rating of "Exorcism at 60,000 Feet" lands on a mere three out of ten stars. You might prepare yourself for an emergency landing when you sit down and watch this 2019 horror comedy. I did, and I got out halfway through.
