About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a classic, all-star disaster drama with airport logistics, interpersonal melodrama, and mounting suspense, in the vein of The Towering Inferno; Not for you if slow, talky setups and older style acting bother you.

Pros: tense snowstorm setting; big ensemble cast; gripping late stretch | Cons: soap-opera subplots; dated dialogue feel; overlong runtime
