Air Force One (1997)
It was like watching Pay It Forward (2000) ...I didn't care!
Air Force One needed to either tighten up or loosen up. Pick one. What I saw
up on the screen was neither, and as a result, was nonsense. IMHO.
"Honey, would you mind walking over here with that machine gun you're
holding and shoot this fellow? Yes, the guy who's trying to push me out of
the back of the plane. Thanks Pookie."
Watching it didn't give me the sense that the movie was anybody's labor of
love (special effects) (writing) (cinematography) (acting) ...zip. There was
no safe harbor watching the thing.
....wait for it....
Sitting through two hours of Air Force One felt like the project was pounded
out in a series of top level production, marketing and accounting meetings -
from concept to DVD. Yes, that is what I'm saying; it had the look of a
movie made by ...."Executive Decision (1996)." g
....what?
Air Force One: maybe not the Worst Aviation Movie of All Time, but a pretty
big disappointment.
