AIR FORCE ONE (1997) - ♦♦♦

Directed by - Wolfgang Petersen

Written by - Andrew W. Marlowe

Starring - Harrison Ford, Gary Oldman, Glenn Close

"American cinema occasionally enjoys placing its president in the leading role of an action film, and despite the fact that this film's director Wolfgang Petersen is European, Air Force One fits into the trend quite comfortably.

The story of Air Force One sees the president, played by none other than Harrison Ford, taking on a group of hijackers on the presidential plane. As silly and downright ludicrous as it is, it is also occasionally as good and unpretentious a high altitude action thriller as you're gonna get."

Thriller, USA/Germany
