action

When a passenger collapses dead on a flight from Colombia to the United States and a huge number of ants pour out of his body - they apparently used him as a host - the entomologist Dr. Carrie Ross immediately recognizes the danger in the aggressive six-legged and warns the pilots. Although they want to land the aircraft immediately, all airports refuse to give them permission. The reason for this is the fear of those responsible on the ground, who fear that the ants could spread uncontrollably after landing. Meanwhile, the insects attack passengers and begin to damage the electronics on board, which quickly becomes noticeable in the flight behavior of the aircraft. After finally getting wind of the situation in the plane and considering shooting it down, Dr. Ross has only one way to save the survivors: she must find and eliminate the queen.

reception

While the similarity to the 2006 film Snakes on a Plane did not go unnoticed and was at the center of the reviews, the actors' acting performances were particularly praised . The critics of the program magazine TV Spielfilm gave a symbolic “thumbs down” and noted that the strip “was ironic-free from the surprise hit 'Snakes on a Plane'”.

"Inspired by Snakes on a Plane , someone came up with the glorious idea of ​​replacing the snakes with ants [...] The actors do their job well, ... some storylines [are] very unrealistic [...] The story brings nothing new [...] The." Film ... is shallow animal horror food without any claim. "

- Marcus Littwin : tierhorror.de

"Simple-minded animal horror film based on the scheme of 'Snakes on a Plan', which at best comes up with acceptable acting performances."
