Nicolas Cage is a US Ranger who after an incident during
which he’s defending his pregnant wife, finds himself in jail. As he writes
letters back and forth to his daughter for the first 8 years of her life, he
yearns for the day when he’s released on parole and when that day comes, he
hitches a ride back home on a US Marshal plane transporting high risk criminals
to different prisons.
With his wife and daughter waiting for him at home he hopes
it will be an easy flight, but when the inmates take over control of the plane,
Cameron finds himself in a fight to ensure he gets home.
As the most dangerous criminals in America hijack the plane
and don’t care how many people have to be killed to ensure they get what they
want, the US Marshalls on the ground finally work out what’s happened and face
a race against time to ensure the plane is grounded, but as it heads towards
Las Vegas, it’ll take more than attack helicopters to get the airplane down.
Surprisingly I really enjoyed this action thriller, even
though I wouldn’t say it’s my favourite genre of film. It was fast paced and
didn’t stop the whole way through – even the violence didn’t put me off!
Co-starring John Malkovich, Steve Buscemi & John Cusack, this movie is
definitely one to watch.
