~contains spoilerswhatever the director be try to achieve with this film and i do not know . in my opinion and all he deliver be a mess up plot that barely rival that of executive decision and a film whose story it be painfully obvious that he want to recreate . come on . a vice president travel in a standard 747 passenger plane . that would never happen and especially in 1997 and when this movie be make . the vp always travel in a u government plane and air force 2. this be clearly a low budget and poorly make film that the maker of executive decision do not want to sue since the maker of executive command wouldn not have to money to pay them anyway .
