A little memo to the critic's circles the world over, to hell with the House of 1000 Corpses, where was View From the Top, on your worst-of lists? An important factor in any truly awful movie is unforgivable waste of talent. Forgive me for this all too ironic metaphor but the last time there was a waste of talent of this proportion was the day the music died. I'll leave it at that. This is unforgivable. Why, for the love of God why, would Gwyneth Paltrow, and Mike Myers agree to do a film this heinous. This is a script that feels like it was written by someone in two hours with a gun held to their head.

On the regret scale, doing a film like this for a cast of this caliber has to be on par with drinking too much egg-nog on Christmas Eve and getting in a fist fight with your brother. I haven't seen Gigli, but why it took all the flack with a piece of garbage like this sailing the friendly skies I can't understand. I have to go all the way back to Battlefield Earth to find it's equal. Ironically Travolta's "play-like" wife Kelly Preston takes part in this disaster as does Candice Bergen, and Christina Applegate.

I boarded this flight in the hope that Mike Myers would, at the very least, salvage this heap of plummeting crap, but he pretty much phoned this one in. His turn was nothing more than a ho hum grown-up version of his SNL character - the hyper-active kid tethered to the monkey bars - that's all we get from Mike and it wears thin well before take-off. Paltrow is Paltrow in this scrap heap of a film, but the only decent performance in this airline disaster is by her boyfriend played by Mark Ruffalo, who can seem to do no wrong. The only moments that felt like a real Hollywood movie were the scenes he was in. What the hell? I can't believe feminist groups haven't rallying against this film, it's the very definition of misogyny. A View From The Top, I don't know - let's try "A Huge Fucking Flop." I seriously considered asking for my money back.
