Panic in the Skies (1996 TV Movie)
5/10
Custom made for Jackson

Warning: Spoilers
I usually bypass custom made movies simply because other key characters are overlooked. I will assume she was the head stewardess and to me didn't really look convincing. Now Kate Jackson is a good actress but here she came off annoying of anything. Maureen McCormick never gets a chance to express her character which was sad cause she took is a pretty good actress.

The whole plot was a bit unbelievable but at least entertaining. A jumbo jet struck by lightning and the cockpit gets fried. Plus the head stewardess actually has a key to the cockpit for emergency reasons. A why a jet would have such an ax on board really takes the cake. The male stewardess knowing there is a electrical issue takes a elevator to the lower level, like okay I'll buy that. In all this movie was made to showcase Jackson and really nothing more. Maureen McCormick, Eric Estrada and Robert Gilliam was just there for the ride. I mean it's a descent movie just a bit far fetched and at least it moves along and doesn't really get boring. I gave it 5 out of 10 only because it's a fun movie that won't make you feel like you just wasted 90 minutes of your time.
