Crash Landing is a 2005 American-Canadian action straight-to-DVD movie directed by Jim Wynorski. It was released in the U.S. on July 11, 2006.This movie is an example of the parity between the big budget American films, and the lower budget B level movies that tend to emerge from Canadian production. Canadian cinema had been largely pushed to the back when it came to attention in the movie market as George Melnyk spoke about in his article "Reflections on Canadian Cinema": "Screen time for Canadian films in Canada varies from a low of one per cent in English Canada to a high of ten per cent in Quebec. During the 1990s the combined figure was about three per cent for the whole country." This made it tough for films like Crash Landing to make any impact and they tend to go straight to DVD.
