Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

It's Die Hard on a plane in this action thriller, starring Wesley Snipes as an anti-terrorist specialist whose early retirement is interrupted when his flight is overtaken by a bloodthirsty villain (Bruce Payne). Watching this at home is pretty much an excuse to order pizza and kick back, as the familiar rhythms of maverick-cop-versus-international-criminal take over and nothing new or fresh in the formula emerges. The supporting cast includes Elizabeth Hurley (Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery) as a gun-wielding, junior terrorist, which is fun simply for being unexpected. The release includes optional full-screen and widescreen presentations, Dolby sound, production notes and optional English, French and Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh


Synopsis

John Cutter, a top anti-terrorist expert, is on his way to start a new job in Los Angeles. On the same flight is Charles Rayne, the world's most dangerous hi-jacker. When they cross paths in the sky the odds are that only one will survive.

2.0 out of 5 stars Appalling, Dreadful and Appalling again, 10 Jan 2005
This review is from: Passenger 57 [1993] [DVD] (DVD)
I would have given this film 1 star but it's not bad enough to be good. It's just naff in a way that Wesley Snipes pyjama bottoms, worn without a shred of explanation, can only hope to emulate. Consider the following scene at the start of the movie:

Plastic Surgeon to bad guy:
I'm just putting you under anaesthetic..

Bad Guy:
No anaesthetic

Plastic Surgeon:
But the pain..

Bad Guy:
There will be no pain.

Now, imagine you're plastic surgeon. I think your next move would be "Are you sure??" or "No, I think there will be pain. I've done this before, you know". It certainly wouldn't be to move your scalpel in a resigned fashion towards the cheek of your misguided patient. So in a way our surgeon friend deserves to be asked the question that becomes the bad guy's trademark, not to mention the question the audience are asking each other, "Have you got the time?"

(This question is a precursor to killing the surgeon. Although why go to a plastic surgeon, sit down, refuse anaesthetic, ask him what the time is, then jump up and slit his throat? I don't know. Please email me if you find out.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Die Hard Brother Version, 1 May 2007
By Jay "The Amazon Reviewer" (Mauritius) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Passenger 57 [1993] [DVD] (DVD)
his is a good film to watch if you need to kill 90 minutes. It does'nt require much thinking, its just a mindless shoot em up action thriller. Snipes was probably the best part of this movie giving a solid performance as an action hero. Bruce Payne is solid as the crazed terrorist Charles Rayne, and I thought Tom Seizmore gave a strong performance in this movie. The action scene's were good too, especially the part at the carnival. In all a very good action movie and is a good to watch if you dont want to watch something too long but entertaining.
