Low Cost

Cheap tickets, zero service, a packed cabin — that's Low Cost (2011), a French comedy you can watch online on iFILM about a budget flight that goes completely off the rails.

The tour operator who chartered the plane goes bust mid-air, and the passengers' ordinary irritation tips over into chaos. From there it's pirates, gunfire and a frantic scramble to survive somewhere above the clouds. Jean-Paul Rouve, Judith Godrèche and Gérard Darmon head a cast of frazzled tourists and traveling salesmen. Ninety-odd minutes of light, absurd genre comedy from director Maurice Barthélemy — made for anyone who likes their French comedies with no pretensions. Stream Low Cost (2011) online on iFILM.
