The facts don't fly, and neither does the film.

Rating: 1/10 (10 October 2000)

Utterly incompetent scriptwriting does in this dreary actioner. The people who wrote this movie know nothing about the real world--so the fundamental source of suspense in the film is based on a lie--(mild spoiler) that aircraft circling National Airport would have nowhere else to land.
It's a typical Hollywood display of contempt for the movie audience. As if there are no airports within an hour of National. Christ, you can almost get to Boston and back in that time! And additionally, the swat-team bullet-proof vests offer less protection than a wet twinkie.
Add the flat acting, tone-deaf script, and you've got a nails on the blackboard bad picture. Come on! Turn on the brain cells! The people who put this dreck out certainly didn't.
