Kurt Russell fighting terrorists on a plane! Yippikayee! Heavily leaning on the succesful Die Hard format, which was a HUGE worldwide boxoffice hit a few years earlier. Lots of similarities with Die Hard, which isnt a bad thing at all...
The good: all a grown up boy needs in an action packed blockbuster: a vicious bad guy, a great hero (Kurt Russell), lots of slowburning suspense, a few good jokes and tons of action!
Any bad? Well, I feared the worst, because many (MANY) cheesy airplane disaster movies have been made, but besides a few dated special effects and a few corny plot turnes this is still one heck of an enjoyable airplane terrorist flick. Solid 7 stars! Recommended for the fans of this genre!
