Hijacked

What went wrong?...I use IMDb to give me an idea of just what other fellow movie watcher's think...normally I get it about right, the numbers as long as they are over 6 maybe lowest or 7 or 8 out of 10....we can get a good average of the film...So what went wrong...well I saw Vinnie Jones in the "Lock stock and 2 smoking barrels"...great film, funny in parts and in my estimation worth the 8.2 out of 10...So what went wrong...yes you guessed it...I didn't use my eyes to see the dismal 3. something out of 10 before I went to the trouble of downloading this film...Yes Vinnie Jones does make an appearance which made me think...yes it could just make the grade...Wooden acting, lack of coherent story line...too many gaps...where maybe the "ACTION" man with the board should have a bit more on the ball...the cutting room floor was probably full of things that did not make it to the screen...For that alone I am thankful that this film only lasted for the time it did..note to self "LOOK AT THE RATINGS IN IMDb FOR ANY FILM...THIS WILL SAVE YOU TIME AND STOP YOU SEEING RUBBISH"....so to sum up...If you are board and have the chance to have an operation have it...don't waste you life on this film..I gave it 3 out of 10...maybe less would be appropriate...it does have some action somewhere...A waste of time,effort,life....

All special agent Paul Ross (Randy Coulture) wants to do is to win back his ex-fiancé, but his plans are sadly thrawrted when his love is on a mammoth plane that's been hijacked (hence the genius name of this film) by terrorists, which makes his day that much worse as he had been suspended earlier that day.

While not nearly as bad as some of the reviews that I've read, it's not a particularly good film either. The action scenes are all right, it's just that it's plot is devoid of any originality and is hopelessly derivative which draws comparisons to similar terrorists on a plane films that this movie can't help but not fair well to. The acting is also not one of its stronger.points. All said, the movie while watchable is a bit forgettable.

My Grade; C

Cool - here comes Vinnie Jones, whom I'm a big fan of & Dominic Purcell.

The aircraft scenes look like they're shot in a hotel - very confusing. Do they really have glass fruit bowls sitting on polished wooden tables? Or cargo bays with cars inside, fully pressurised and air-conditioned with extensive lighting and stairs leading up to the passenger compartment?

The action... they do a clever job of avoiding any real action on screen - and there is no excitement or suspense.

The budget for this movie obviously wouldn't even cover the price of admission. The story was so bad, and the plot so sad, that I had to resist the urge to turn it off for a while. Initially thinking it was going to be a pythonesque slow starting rip roaring comedy...

The joke's on me for wasting 40 minutes on this trash!

"I'm not in a position to delay your departure, but if you choose to fly I strongly recommend you double all your security efforts." Paul Ross (Couture) is a special agent who is great at his job but not his personal life. He has just broken up with his fiancé and his best friend just got killed. To make matters worse he has just boarded a plane that his ex is on and it has just been hijacked by people working for the crime lord he is looking for. I have to admit that I had really low expectations for this one. Most wrestler movies are not that impressive and after watching this one I guess same goes for MMA. This is a movie where the writers said he can put a UFC guy in this and have him beat people up, that will make people watch. The sad fact is that that it true. The fighting was good, but the movie overall was totally flat. No emotion, no intrigue and I actually found myself wanting to shut it off or fast forward it. My inner struggle actually helped because my talking to myself not only was more entertaining but made the time go by quicker. I was hoping for "Air Force One" meets "Passanger 57". I couldn't have been more wrong. On the plus side there is a scene of nudity halfway through...so there is that. Overall, a movie for really hardcore wrestling/mma movie fans. I had to struggle to get through it. I give it a C-.

clearly a low budget film and the staging and stock shots evidence this. but for what it is, it works. tough guys, good looking girls, and lots of action. i liked the flight attendant, the journalist and the pilot.... that's the guy i want in the cockpit on my next flight. I am up for a sequel and this movie sets the stage nicely for one. Only difference I would like to see is on the budget. spend five times what was spent on the first movie (whatever that amount was ) and you will have a good picture. I am not saying you need to be on location but get staging the has the rounded appearance and proportions of an airplane not a hotel lobby and cast situation actors conforming to the purported location.
