Real men never look back at banknotes

Nicolas Cage's classic action movie. At that time, he was still strong and had a tough guy with long blond hair. Although he didn't play well, he was still strong, unlike the bad movies that are now everywhere. The villain, Markovic, is calm, cruel, smart, and crazy, and it's a bit miserable at the end, but the acting is not bad.
Cameron, a former special forces man who was jailed for manslaughter, flew home when he was about to be released. As a result, bad luck, the felons on the plane escaped from prison, the method was very cruel, some with wire in their palms, some with matches in their stomachs, and then took over the entire plane. In the first stop, in order to confuse the police, the prisoner allowed six people to get off the plane. Cameron chose to stay in order to save the inmates. After deceiving the police, he took off at the wilderness airport forcibly. Under Cameron's counterattack, he made a forced landing in Las Vegas. After the last firetruck and motorcycle chase, it ended perfectly.
In fact, there are not many action scenes, that is, when the forced landing and the final chase are more exciting. The rest of the time it was Cameron and the prisoners wrestling with each other. The action design is general, and it is purely muscle to win. But it is still thrilling and worth watching.

  • Larkin: [while in surveillance truck] Nathan Jones, A.K.A. Diamond Dog. Former general of the Black Guerillas. He blew up a meeting of the National Rifle Association saying, and I quote, "They represented the basest negativity of the white race."
