6/10
Plain and simple, and very entertaining.

Ah, I enjoy 'Drop Zone'. The film has a distinct 80's TV series feel.

The film has a simple, straight-forward premise. I really enjoyed it for its simplicity. It really is more about skydiving than anything else, and that's what makes this film so special. The aerial photography is really good and the skydiving scenes are by far the film's draw-card. 'Drop Zone' also gives us an interesting insight into sky diving, and excellent in promoting the sport. The stunts are wonderful.

Wesley Snipes is wonderful as the protagonist; I just love this guy! He boasts great fighting skills, he is charming and quite funny, too. Gary Busey is pretty much typecast as the baddie. It was rather refreshing to see a film of this genre without a forced love interest. 'Drop Zone' builds to a thrilling, action-packed and suspenseful climax.

Would I watch it again? Yes.
