This movie is acceptable as 85 minutes of light entertainment but it really never rises above mediocrity. The plot is unimaginative with all the usual elements. Terrorist is transported by FBI on commercial flight, terrorist escapes with the help of an insider on the plane, our hero gets arrested by bungling cops who mistakes him for a bad guy and of course the obligatory jump off or on the plane while it is moving…
He's an ex-cop with a bad mouth, a bad attitude, and a bad seat. For the terrorists on flight 163 . . . he's very bad news.
Airline security specialist John Cutter, finally returning to the job after his wife's death, finds himself stuck on a flight being hijacked by notorious terrorist Charles Rane. Unfortunately for the terrorists, they're also stuck with him.

“Cutter” (Wesley Snipes) is grieving the death of his wife as he travels on an aircraft that finds itself hijacked by the dastardly “Rane” (Bruce Payne) and his henchmen - including one of the hostesses with the mostest. What “Rane” hadn’t factored in as he makes outrageous demands of “Atlantic International” is that the mourning “Cutter” is head of security for this very airline and is no slouch when it comes to…
