In addition to the constant contrast wavering, color discrepancies, and detail and clarity ups and downs, there is some light edge enhancement, some frozen grain (check the shot starting at the 20:24 mark for a frozen grain background that shifts around like it were a piece of cardboard being waved by a ten year old), and light artifacting issues. It's extremely clear and.wait, nevermind. The picture is sharp, loaded with detail.scratch that too. Presented with an AVC MPEG-4 encode (1080p, 2.35:1), 'Drop Zone' is mired with inconsistency.Ĭolors are solid.ah wait, scratch that. 'Drop Zone' isn't anywhere near the zone on kinda dropped the ball.

"We have tasted your free sample and have decided we want more." If you, or someone you know, thinks the best thing they can do with nearly two hours of their life is rewatch 'Drop Zone,' treatment is available. In lieu of any further mean spirited comments concerning 'Drop Zone,' it may be best to use this space to discuss a matter that should be taken with the utmost seriousness, as it affects us all. In addition to the money he's had to repay the government, I'm going to ask him for my money back, and I didn't even pay to see this steaming pile of unfortunate career choices. It's hard to see why Snipes' career nosedived considering such an amazing effort he put out in this award worthy film. Why not, as he's the only positive in this film. Basically, all Gary Busey and his Nick Nolte DUI picture-esque hairdo. If I were ever to sit down to 'Drop Zone' again, I'd want a recut version.

Ridiculous special effects, a terrible, borderline hackneyed plot that snowballs at the end in a brainless deluge of bullets at the crescendo for no apparent reason, and meaningless conflicts involving background characters that do nothing to advance the plot? More than enough! Montages? You betcha there's some montage action, hot, nasty montage goodness. Snipes doesn't even do a good job portraying his stereotypical Wesley Snipes-esque character, despite the years of practice. What is there to say about 'Drop Zone' that doesn't include numerous curses against all that is holy? Characters literally think out loud when there's no one to hear them. The rest of the cast includes Michael Jeter (who didn't get past the Double A farm club) as hacker Earl Leedy, and Kyle Secor as an unbathed wildman skydiver named Swoop. Little known fact: he hijacks planes on his off time. However, Busey, in all his maniacal goodness, does play himself. The super-cop who currently isn't a cop on a technicality has to become as daring as his skydiving compatriots to prevent the evil Busey from stealing the DEA's supply of teeth whitener/list of undercover agents worldwide.Īlright, to be honest, Snipes doesn't actually portray himself.but he may as well, considering he shows less range here than a man in a full body cast. The culprit? Gary Busey, whose ginormous teeth don't let us believe his alternate persona "Ty Moncrief." Snipes must infiltrate the world of competitive skydiving, as his hunches are never, ever wrong (you'd think someone who is right about every assumption he makes would be in a higher position, like psychic chief or some shit), with the help of Jessie Crossman (Yancy Butler) and her thick-as-a-roll-of-dimes eyebrows. Working under the alias Pete Nessip, Snipes gets put under the microscope (and under review with no badge or gun) when a prisoner transfer he is supervising gets hijacked, with an explosion killing numerous innocent civilians, and his fellow marshall brother. An air marshall, mind you, but still, the man. I suppose the level of ineptitude shown in 'Drop Zone' could be considered funny, if it didn't chill me closer to the bone than the sense of vertigo I had watching both sky divers and careers plummet.īefore Wesley Snipes was a wanted man himself for his excessively creative tax returns, he was The Man. All I wanted to do was laugh, like the trailer promised me I would. Not even Kathy Bate's floppy performance in 'About Schmidt' scared me to this level. I don't know if I've ever been more mortified during a film, ever. The two minute clip parades around like a pun-riddled, smarmy bantering piece of horrendously unintentional comedy, so if the film were anywhere near as entertaining as its trailer, I would have been in for the ride of my life. View the trailer for 'Drop Zone,' and you start to wonder about a certain deep voiced gentleman's credibility.

If movie trailer guy says it, it has to be true. "In a world of high tech secrets, the survival of justice is at stake.and all that stands between anarchy and order (dramatic pause) is one man."
