This is a film that I probably watch once a year. It is such a classic thriller, which I feel like there aren't as many great thrillers like there in the 90s.
High-altitude thriller in which the presidential aircraft, Air Force One, is hijacked by Russian communist radicals demanding the release of the Kazakhstani leader. With the First Lady and her family trapped on board, the hijackers threaten to kill one hostage every half-hour until their demands are met. What they don't know is that the president himself is hiding in the hold and formulating a plan to save his family.
