    Not Bad, But....

    This film is not bad, but it had a lot of cliche characters and cliche events, making it fairly predictable through most of it. However, it was interesting enough that I was able to stay with it even though I doubt I'll remember it for long.

    Don't believe them. Its dreadful.

    First of all, completely ignore the other comments here. This film is BAD. Trust me. The direction is limp, the script embarrassing, the sets flimsy, and I haven't even got to the actors yet. Anthony Michael Hall will always be remembered for The Breakfast Club and Weird Science - he's OK at being a geeky teen, but a menacing hijacker? He's about as intimidating as my pants. And then there's Ally Sheedy. Perhaps she's had more of a career than Anthony, but that doesn't mean she's a good actor. To be fair though, its not like she has much to work with here.

    OK, the film. Its like Turbulence v Passenger 57, except made for £2.50. If you want to watch a cheesy Hollywood airplane film that actually creates some tension, go and watch Executive Decision. At least you get to see Steven Seagal get creamed.

    Seriously bad

    This movie was probably the worst hijack movie I've ever seen.

    Firstly the flight deck on the aircraft was too small and not how it would look in an actual aircraft.

    The first officer wouldn't be flying the aircraft with his jacket on.

    The captain and first officer didn't have any stripes on the shoulders of their shirts. They also didn't have their seat belts on during takeoff and landing.

    Very sloppy movie. So unrealistic as far as the flight deck scenes go Surely these things could have been researched?

    The rest of the movie was ok. I've seen better. The acting was mediocre, better than the movie itself lol.

    Great made for TV movie...

    James Brolin, Aley Sheeny, Perry King, Michael Gross & Anthony Michael Hall as the EVIL Hijacker! Not bad & cring worthy moments! Watch it & enjoy!

    These schemes always work!

    This is one of those films that feature an airplane hijacking where the terrorist want money, lots of money! Of course, pretty sure the only place this scenario happens is in movies or in this case television movies because what would be the point of murdering people to get your point across when all that is going to do is make you more wanted and hunted than if you like embezzle some money or go through the backdoor in a computer program to steal some money. Like all films of this type we get stars that are billed higher in the cast than others and the ones at the top literally do nothing compared to those lower on the cast list!

    The story, a convicted murder is put on a plane of people just wanting to head to their locale. He is deadly, a known killer so lets assign two people to guard him and lets put him in the same cabin as everyone else. Well he has friends, because murders always work together so they can hold people hostage and so he is freed and he wants to head to Dallas and he wants 20 million in bonds for the lives of the people. Just give him the damn things, not like they are untraceable assets, I think you can even render them useless if you want. No, they just have elaborate plans, besides the terrorist is an idiot and literally lets a passenger talk him into releasing half the passengers. Should of offered him muffins, he may have let the whole lot of them go!

    The casting is what you would expect. We have James Brolin looking quite disinterested and Michael Grossman who looks only mildly more interested than Charles. You get the gun toting lunatic of the Police Academy films playing a lunatic Vietnam vet afraid of flying, you have Anthony Michael Hall playing the terrorist in a very unconvincing manner and Ally Sheedy is a gym teacher who also is a hostage negotiator or something...

    The film is your standard television movie fare where there is not enough in the budget to have a standard plane crash, plus you had to pay those stars to kind of just sit there! Then you have the terrorist who really are dumb and obviously don't think things through. Ask yourself, have you ever seen anyone get away with a crime like this? Well, they did in the movie Quick Change, but that group was led by Bill Murry, not the geeky member of the brat pack!

    • Trivia
      The plastic gun used by the female hijacker is the same one used by the assassin in Dans la ligne de mire (1993).
    • Goofs
      The entire plot of this film is implausible. Prisoners are normally transported on unmarked aircraft operated by the Justice Prisoner and Alien Transportation System (also known as "Con Air"), not civilian passenger flights. Such aircraft are also normally handled at military airports, not commercial ones. Furthermore, flight schedules and manifests are confidential, kept away from public view and known only to those directly involved in the operation. All of the aforementioned factors exist specifically for the purposes of deterring escapes or sabotage, and preventing harm to bystanders.
