Die Hard comes out and is a huge hit and then the 90's try to reproduce it over and over and over again. I am Eaton, and this is the Willie Mays Hays action flick Passenger 57.
What's better than the lone hero who has to stop terrorists in a building all by themselves, how about one having to do it on an airplane. That's where Wesley Snipes comes in trying to show you that he really is a great Martial Artist and he is someone to issue an ass whipping long before any of the blade movies come out.
You have bad good guys to help him along the way and at least the Bad guy is a really good bad guy in Bruce Payne. The bad guy is the key to these flicks. If you don't care if the bad guy gets taken down then you'll never sit through all the bad dialogue and irrelevant plot. Payne is not Alan Rickman but is still a pretty good bad guy.
A early appearance for Elizabeth Hurley and an interesting tid bit. This movie was to air on TV the night of 9/11. STARZ changed their mind in light of the whole terrorist on a plane thing and said it would be in bad taste.
One last thing..........always bet Black!
