"Your national security advisor has just been executed. He's a very good negotiator. He bought you another half hour." - Ivan Korshunov

Why watch this? This superb film is at its best when Ford and Oldman go at it.

Plot Summary: A group of terrorists hijacks the presidential aircraft, Air Force One, demanding the release of their imprisoned leader. The President, initially believed to have escaped, secretly remains on board, fighting to protect his family and the other hostages. He races against time, battling the hijackers to regain control of the plane and thwart their plans.

Dad's Preview: Ford plays the US President whose plane is hijacked by Russian terrorists led by Oldman. Ford is exceptional as the POTUS (we all wish we had), and equally effective is Glenn Close as his stubborn VP. However, it is Gary Oldman who steals the show as the brutal antagonist - man, he can go over the top when it's most effective. Good thrillers must feel plausible - this one does. You'll be on the edge of your seat through-out this high-flying adventure!
