Air Marshal (2003)
3/10
Executive Decision RIPOFF
23 August 2005
Warning: Spoilers
You would think if they were going to ripoff a movie, they should at least do it right. But after 9/11, maybe this type of movie wasn't the best idea.

The story is retired special forces ace Brett Prescott is now a US Air Marshall and catches a flight home to see his pregnant wife. On the way the plane is hijacked by Muslim terrorists.....if you've seen Exectuve Decision you know the drill. He eliminates the terrorists one by one and saves the day.

What astounded me was the number of ripoffs. Same US senator on board, same kamikaze Muslim, same special forces at the beginning of the movie. Plus the special effects were about as special as a glass of water. Either way the writers of this movie have all the creativity of a xerox machine. It has some flashes of hilarity and action (a spinebuster) but its overall a ripoff.

The highlight of the movie is when Luke gets freaked out when he realizes Brett is still alive and the guy tells him "SIT DOWN!" in a really high pitched voice.
