ok lets see where do I start, I love watching action b-movies because I like to see what they can do with a low budget, and to get a laugh out of the stolen stock footage and poor acting but this movie takes the cake.
What we have here is a poor clone of Executive Decision.
SPOILERS: Standard plot, terrorists take over the plane, a unit is sent to eliminate them. Predictably, just like in Executive Decision, our hero team uses an air hatch to transfer to the 747. Yet what is the most surprising thing is that they didn't use the Executive Decision footage of that scene, rather it looked like a computer merging since the resolution and color saturation of the 747 far exceeded the SR-71. Anyways back to elite unit of commandos who in a real gunfight would shoot each others heads off with their positioning. They make their way into the plane and attack the terrorists with a deadly barrage of.....handguns. And the battle ensues as the good guys shoot 2 times and hide, then the terrorists shoot 2 times and hide, then the good guys shoot 2 times and hide, etc.. until this intense battle ends when the terrorists decide instead of ducking they will wait for the good guys to come out and shoot them, which they did all at once, yet for some reason there are no bullet holes or blood stains on the commandos.
Lucky for us, our main hero Ice-T is alive and only his leg is wounded, but in his poor attempt to act, he gasps for air as if he had run a 2 hour marathon. But wait.. a stewardess saves the day and they prepare to land. But wait, the bad guy has revived so he gets thrown out of an open door at 30,000 feet and clings at the door while a fog machine covers him with fog to simulate clouds. Yet at 30,000 ft the stewardess leans outside and closes the door without any problems or gusts of wind disturbing her clothes. As if that was not bad enough, it could have been a good scene had she pretended to be "scared" and closed the door as if she was at 30,000 feet instead of a stationary plane on the ground. Whats that called....oh yea...ACTING!
And as we approach the runway with all this turbulence shaking the plane, from the inside it looks as if they're on one of the most smoothest flights. The least they could have done is shake the camera star trek style. I understand that the budget is bad, but this movie is so bad they overlook the smallest details which dont cost them anything. My rating - action:0, comedy:0, unintentional comedy:10. Watch only if you need a good laugh.
