      Have everything

      Originally it was aimed at Indian guys, who knew he was just a friendly guest appearance~~~ In this way, only Harry was more attractive,~~ but he had very few scenes.
             One of the airplane series in the popular disaster film that year, the plot should be said to be quite exciting, there is everything that should be, bombs, poisonous gas, hijacking. Terrorist attacks. Then board the plane in the air, dismantle the bomb, and attack the terrorists.
            The scene is also bloody....

      A less "heroic" movie

      Facing the threat of terrorist attacks, everyone should be used to the routines of American movies. There are only a few variables, motivation, means, and methods.

      But there are some differences in this movie. From the beginning to the end, there were many key mistakes in the operation. The heroes who are isolated and helpless overcome psychological frustration, muster the courage, use the equipment and knowledge they possess to challenge the terrorists, and believe that they will not...

      Steven Seager plays the U.S. special forces commander Lieutenant Colonel Quvis. He did not expect that the first anti-terrorist commando operation failed, and the second operation died early at the beginning. What the hell? Is there something urgent for the Seagers? Instead, it was stole the limelight by Dr. David Glenn, a...

      A movie that exceeds expectations!

      Although it is not uncommon to see movies about aircraft hostages, it is indeed rare to see a movie like this one where unexpected situations continue to occur!

      From the time the plane was hijacked, the military dispatched fighter planes for aerial docking rescue (in the 1996 movie, this idea was really mind-blowing), and then a series of accidents began!

      The lieutenant colonel was killed when the docking pipe broke. Hurry up!)-The bomb...

    Movie plot

    A group of terrorists hijacked a Boeing 747 passenger plane, took more than 400 people on board as hostages, and demanded the release of their arrested leader. However, according to intelligence officer Grant’s judgment, their real purpose was to detonate in the US capital, Washington. A very lethal nerve gas bomb. In order to stop this conspiracy and rescue the hostages on the plane, the special operations team took an extremely risky...

    Evaluation action

    "Executive Decision" is a combination of action film and disaster film. The narrow belly corridor, fragile cockpit bulkhead, and time race bomb disposal determine that the film’s characteristics are different from that of "Prison in the Air". Sparring and explosion. The counter-terrorism team and the terrorists started a game of catching intelligence. The condensed atmosphere in the first half and the tense atmosphere in the second...
