Drop Zone

I've always wondered what it'd be like to go skydiving?

Or wondered at least since I found out about the phenomenon.

It sounds pretty exciting.

Fly around for a while, take in the view, strap a parachute to your back, and jump the *&$( out of a plane.

Then revel in joyous plummeting and hope the rip cord works.

It's been a long time since I've considered doing it, and it looks like extracurricular activities are out this summer, damn it, but I think I'll add it to my bucket list, again, and maybe give it a shot in 2021.

I imagine it's less complicated than horseback riding.

Although who's to say what's more intense?

I imagine skydiving's more intense since you're jumping out of a plane, even if you're not adventuring through rugged wilderness, but you could perhaps skydive into rugged wilderness and then set about setting up camp, for a better than average reality show, immersed in independent camera work.

And local wildlife.

There's a lot of skydiving in Drop Zone, it's the primary focus beyond the plot, which asks itself, "how many scenes involving skydiving can we realize?", before setting them celestially in motion.

With Snipes and Busey.

Pete Nessip (Wesley Snipes) doesn't know how to skydive, but he's given ample opportunity to learn, as he tracks the elusive Ty Moncrief (Gary Busey), whose scenes are cut far too short.

If you're interested in skydiving or already thoroughly enjoy it, Drop Zone provides generous food for thought, or general aspects to be critically analyzed, while viewing peculiar takes on vitriol.

If it's a little too serious for its flight plan, fret not, no need to worry, soon they'll be wildly taking off then quickly diving towards earth once again.

Or the top of a building etc.

Skydiving shenanigans mischievize upon the ground as well, and there's even a character named Swoop (Kyle Secor) who works odd jobs between subsequent dives.

Grace Zabriskie's (Winona) given a role where she does more than lounge and vegetate, and she's teamed up with Corin Nemec (Selkirk) whose light heart imaginatively sessions.

It was nice to see an action film where characters aren't exceptionally endowed, making things work to the best of their abilities, with old school equipment and regular jobs.

The transitions from scene to scene are noteworthy and upbeat as well, with chill yet discerning guitar riffs announcing upcoming tasked transformations (music by Hans Zimmer).

Why not focus on the hands-on, at times, in cinema and literature, and celebrate feisty determined lives lived, regardless of status or income, in the multidisciplinary United States of America?

Canada too.

France, Ireland etc.

Snipes excels in the leading role and Malcolm-Jamal Warner's (Terry Nessip) airtight as his bro.

The plot may be somewhat direct.

But multiple characters still swiftly take flight.
