Critics Consensus: More of a string of formulaic set pieces than an actual action thriller, Terminal Velocity ends up going nowhere fast.

Reviews

Gone With The Twins

Mike Massie

Although the realism is at a staggering low, the screenplay is surprisingly clever, using quite a few jokes and suspenseful situations for impressive comedic effect.

...a perfectly watchable (if entirely forgettable) little thriller...

Independent on Sunday

Ryan Gilbey

As a wise-cracking sky-diving instructor, Charlie Sheen wears his usual look of someone who has just been asked a really difficult question (like: how come your career has lasted this long?).

A brisk, sleek wrong-man story that's easily the better of 1994's dueling skydiver movies and, had a darker Charlie Sheen from another universe not swapped places with our own, might have made the actor Kurt Russell's action-movie heir apparent.

Some of the comic writing undercuts the preposterous story.
