Gordo R Great action movie with the always dependable Harrison Ford. It's a bit long but it's entertaining. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/09/25 Full Review Max G This movie, if you are looking at it from a perspective of Sophocles is and amazing film. The tragic hero, the president has good fortune and a rise in the peoples favor. Then there is the Hero's decline with his tragic flaw of trusting everyone on his plane. The only part of the movie that strays from Sophocles' criteria is at the very end. Sophocles likes a tragic ending, but this movie has a reuniting of the presidents family. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/25 Full Review Ralph R Air Force One is a well-crafted action thriller that keeps the stakes high from start to finish. The plot is straightforward but effective, delivering a tense and engaging story without unnecessary complications. It establishes the characters and conflict efficiently, setting up a strong foundation before diving into the action. The pacing is well-handled, keeping things moving while allowing room for character moments. While some parts require suspension of disbelief, the movie never drags or loses momentum. The directing by Wolfgang Petersen is sharp, maintaining a balance between intense action sequences and character-driven moments. The cinematography is dynamic, making excellent use of tight spaces inside the plane to heighten tension. The action sequences are shot cleanly, making every moment easy to follow without relying on excessive cuts or shaky cam. The visual storytelling helps reinforce the high-stakes nature of the plot, keeping the audience engaged throughout. The special effects hold up well for the time, though some sequences, particularly involving the plane, push realism a bit too far. The acting is one of the strongest aspects of the movie. Harrison Ford delivers a commanding performance, bringing both toughness and sincerity to his role. Gary Oldman, as expected, is a standout, making for a memorable antagonist with just the right amount of menace. The supporting cast does a solid job, with Glenn Close and others adding weight to the political side of the story. The script is functional, not overly complex, but with enough strong dialogue to keep things engaging. The score by Jerry Goldsmith enhances the experience, delivering a powerful and heroic theme that fits the tone of the film perfectly. While the movie has its implausible moments, it remains a well-directed and exciting action thriller that holds up as a classic in its genre. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/25 Full Review Daniel N Another old school 90's movie that continues to withstand the test of time. With a great cast, great story and great action it's still awesome to watch even in 2025. No better era for movies than the 90's.
