I've been to airports before. They are bustling and exciting. I've been to San Francisco before. It is bustling and exciting.
I've been to San Francisco's airport... You get the picture.
Here is a movie that manages to reduce the crazy pace of airports and the atmosphere of one of the most exciting cities in the country, into something phenomenally dull.
Everything in the decor is brown and orange. I mean everything. I know it was filmed in the 1970s or 1980s, and taste was a touch-and-go thing, but this is ridiculous. During most of the movie, I was wondering if the lights were even on. Oh, and the sound is muddier than a riverside after a flood. The entire cast sound like they are talking through wads of drier lint.
The nominal plot hints at a serious crime case, but nothing really happens. Finding the long-term parking lot at an actual airport is more fun.moreless
