On some dumb fundamental level, Airport kept me interested for a couple of hours. I can't quite remember why.

Yes, it may be junk, but it's irresistible junk, like cotton candy, chicken nuggets or Gilligan's Island reruns.

If it weren't for a mad bomber story line, it would be the perfect empty movie for airlines to show on long flights.

It spawned a sub-genre, but it was old-fashioned when it was new.

Old-fashioned and fairly stagy, but this great-granddaddy of disaster flicks has an undeniable old-fashioned charm.

Product Description:
One of the original "disaster" movies, this all-star nail-biter follows a series of emergencies at a large Midwestern airport on a snowy night. The weather's bad enough, but then a passenger threatens to blow up an inbound plane. Based on Arthur Hailey's novel. Sequels include Airport 1975, Airport '77 and The Concorde - Airport '79 and dozens of other catastrophe epics built from the same blueprint.
