Movie Reviews of View from the Top
Movie Review: Unbelievable
Summary: 2 Stars
Can't believe Gwyneth Paltrow did this thing. I kept waiting for some irony. This is straight-ahead, nothing post-modern about it. As such, it's a throwback to the madcap comedies of Marilyn Monroe. Christina Applegate's role is one dimensional, as is Mike Myers'. The script is sort of barfable. Is this supposed to be Austin Powers for women?Movie Review: Highly entertaining chick flick
Summary: 4 Stars
The sets and costumes reminded me of Down With Love.This is a very enjoyable comedy with a happy ending the girls will thoroughly enjoy.Movie Review: Good Cast-Good Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Definitely a good romantic comedy, View From the Top, brings to the screen the story of a young woman who gets her chance to leave home and fulfil her dream of becoming an air hostess. When she meets Mr Right, however, she'll have to do some serious thinking as to what and who is more important in her life...
View From the Top is a film about human relations, hope and second chances, but most importantly about trust, love, and inner strength.
Gwyneth Paltrow, Mark Ruffalo, Christina Applegate, Candice Bergen, Mike Myers, Rob Lowe, and the rest of this great cast, have outdone themselves with their performances. All the actors, without exceptions, give it their 100% and it really shows (the chemistry is AMAZING)! Very well written and very well presented, the movie is without a doubt guaranteed to provide more than just a few laughs, not to mention a few tears. The film is simple enough, but does a great job of describing people's every day lives and the problems they face. It just goes to show that simplicity is often far better than complexity, when trying to present issues of a human nature.
The setting, the plot, the dialogues and the music (!) are all wonderful!
In short, View From the Top is a movie definitely worth watching and one to seriously consider adding to your movie collection! 4.5 Stars
Movie Review: View from the Top
Summary: 4 Stars
Clearly intended as an inside-scoop "Chick-Flick", this retro-view of the three stewardess competitive climb to the top of the airline's industry during the '70's, is yet again another example of better-than-expected summer release style effort---from conception to delivery. The comedic performance of all cast members and particularly the three primary actresses were outstanding: Gwyneth Paltrow (Donna), Christina Applegate (Christine), Kelly Preston (Sherry), plus comedic performances by Candice Bergen and Mike Myers. But don't expect too many belly-laughs. Instead, you'll just be smiling throughout the whole film, especially if you remember any of those `coffee, tea or me' United, Western, PSA, and American "Stews" back during that era. Overall, it's up-beat & sunny comedy-relief, purposely PG-13 suitable, and COLORFUL!Movie Review: Avoid

What a fascinating range of reviews, an equal number of all 5 ratings. Don't know that I've ever seen that before. I also don't know if I've ever seen such a lame movie before. I've seen bad movies, unfortunately, way too many, but this isn't bad. It's....just nothing. A whisp, a breeze, a slight disturbance of the atmosphere, then gone. 79 minutes (jeez, double feautures used to have two films longer than that) yet too long at that. A cast of competent actors try to breathe life into this corpse, but cannot do it. The cliches come tumbling out one on top of the other, the surprises are nil, the characters are barely one-dimensional, the few laughs milked long after the teat is dry. Not worth a lengthy review. Not worth much of anything.
