Movie trailer and editorial reviews

"...A spectacularly good special-effects finale..."
USA Today - Mike Clark (03/15/1996)

"...A thankfully unexploitative, rock-solid piece of work....Logic, wit and chutzpah..." -- Rating: B+
Entertainment Weekly - Ty Burr (08/09/1996)

"...Its action and excitement quotient is top-notch....A slick piece of goods with a dark sense of humor, a highly entertaining arsenal of gadgets and a fair share of unexpected developments..."
Variety - Leonard Klady (03/11/1996)

"...It's a nice surprise to come across a savvy piece of work that relies on suspense and is as professional as the elite anti-terrorist unit it celebrates..."

Executive Decision

Created: 31/08/08
Kurt Russell, heading an all star cast of Spec Op Operators, including an extended cameo by Team Leader Steven Seagel, decides to board a terrorist held 747 in the air!
Ingenious plot, real world scenario, intense moments and quick decision making and an even realistic look at boarding a hijacked commercial jet at 30,000 feet makes this movie a must have for action junkies!

Exciting movie

Created: 22/02/09
I like disaster and potential disaster movies. This movie was very exciting and fast paced. Lots of tense edge of your seat moments. A team of experts trying to prevent terrorist from spreading poisonous gas by blowing up a airplane over the eastern United States as a plot was great. The involvement of one of the stewardesses to help them gave added spice to the film Kurt Russell was terrific as the mild out of his area, Hero, as was Halle Berry as the stewardess. David Suchet did a fine job as the leader of the terrorist. I thought the killing of the pilots near the end of the movie wasn't necessary,they could have been wounded and unable to function and still had a exciting ending .

Kurt Russell Shines

Created: 10/01/07
A fast paced Action/Adventure that mixes a supposed nerd,a sexy Flight Attendant(Halle Berry)& an insane terrorist, throw in a cameo with Stven Seigal & you have a movie that is watchable over-again. Good humor keeps the pace going.

appropriate tp story

Created: 04/10/07
I like this movie very much. I had it on VHS and I bought it on DVD as a replacement. I have watched it many times. This is more like real life; not all things go as planned, it shows team work not one super hero type and it shows improvising and mistakes.

Action Packed!

Created: 26/01/09
One of the best action movies I have ever seen or owned. I actually saw it several years ago and remembered the key sequences and I searched for it on Ebay because of that. It will keep you in suspense and guessing the whole way if you have never seen!
