Honestly, I absolutely loved this. Everything about it was so unbelievably awful that I couldn't stop watching. There were so many mistakes and blunders throughout that you have to think it's all just a joke. It became a game of 'spot the continuity error' which was great fun! Most bad films make me annoyed, this just made me laugh throughout. I have to give an accurate review, but I'd actually give the experience 10 stars because it was a blast! The dialogue is so poor it had me giggling like a little girl. The effects and lack of decent editing only add to how funny it all is!

Oh, what a wonderful movie. I honestly don't know where to begin. Anyone who watches this movie should recognize that it is an Asylum film, and was probably made as a joke. Even so, I still loved it. It was so senseless and mind numbing that it had entertaining and amusing properties. The very beginning is the best part. A lady is driving a convertible with the speakers on full blast, and spontaneously gets obliterated by falling satellite debris. I honestly think anyone with their speakers that loud should be annihilated. When someone investigates as to what satellite the debris belong to- they pick up a lighting fixture with a mother board glued to the side. Geez, don't want to be hit by a falling household lighting fixture- those things have a bad reputation of falling from satellites. As many users pointed out, the mysterious purple lightning storm was exciting. Waves and waves of purple stuff caused satellites to become so damaged, that they fall from orbit- and impact only the most critical parts of the world. In this case, it happens to be the only air traffic control tower that can communicate with AF1, and most of the civilian population. I love how the controllers saw the debris heading towards them on radar- and barely escaped the inferno. They should have fried anyway- most of them left their post many times to make phone calls- leaving a very conceited intern in charge.I also love when the ACAT system locks a secret service agent in the bathroom- and has a camera fixed on him. Turns out the ACAT system is not only evil, but extremely perverted. For those of you who didn't know, the ACAT system has control of Air Force One, the radar system, and many missiles (which don't always explode). What doofus President would put so much power into something named after a CAT? Surely after the ACAT satellite falls from the sky, it would turn off? No, it's much worse than that. ACAT shoots down the F-16 escorts, shoots a missile at a man on a different plane (all we see is his forehead is bruised a bit), electrocutes the pilots of Air Force One, and tries to zap the President's Daughter. I know it's a lot to take in. But don't take my word for it, there is plenty more in the movie. Now the best part of the movie is what the passengers on board the DC-9 has to go through. After they survive a fierce storm of purple lightning, they knock off the tip of the Cleveland Tower- No big, they keep flying, not a single scratch-yet. We see an obviously disturbed passenger who desperately wants his newspapers, and a girl who needs her pills after splitting up whipped cream. The ACAT on AF1 decides it doesn't like whip cream girl, so it tries to shoots down the DC- 9 with a missile. The Missile gets struck by lightning, and only penetrates through the side of the plane, leaving a square hole. A passenger then PICKS UP THE MISSILE, and throws it out of the plane, which then falls to the earth and blows up a Toyota pickup at a gas station (those trucks aren't worth anything anyway). Then, the passengers plug the hole with some carry-on bags. WOW, they should make all plane doors out of carry on bags! BUT WAIT! THE WHIP CREAM GIRL'S PILLS ARE IN ONE OF THE BAGS! She dies from a seizure- and she is covered with a blanket- many blankets are used to cover dead passengers throughout the film. IF that isn't enough- the newspaper man goes nuts- and gets knocked out by a copy of Lord of the Rings. Yes, the newspaper man lives after being struck by the book, but later is sucked out of the plane after nearly colliding with Air Force One. A large gap is created in the roof of the plane- but the plane remains intact at 21,000 feet. Whooo, give those pilots a cookie. If that isn't enough, they land on a street in Cleveland after striking over 3 buildings. After everyone evacuates, some idiot decides to stay and take one last look at the magical plane that should have exploded when the missile hit. The plane then erupts into flames, and kills the poor chap. You would think he wouldn't pull a "Lot's wife" move and look back- but he did, and died as a result. But that's not it! Some colonel on an army base, population 3, decides to enact operation desert fox. A C-130 pulls up underneath AF1, and attaches a PVC pipe/elevator to the plane. After the President refuses to go, the First Lady goes instead. A rope is then attached to a hook in the wall. The oddly placed hook rips from the drywall, tearing the PVC pipe with it. We then see the first lady clinging to the rope (insert Wilhelm scream), and the C-130 EXPLODES. The President then pulls his wife back into the plane. I was amazed that a simple hook that snaps causes desert fox to fail. Whoever the architect of that was, he should be shot. To sum things up, I enjoyed this movie a lot. The madness of this movie is what made it exciting. Literally every second either had fast pace music playing, or a close up shot of something being blown up. I would highly recommend this film to be watched ONLY ONCE. If you watch this twice, you might explode yourself. I gave this film a 2/10 because a 1/10 wouldn't serve this film justice. The additional star is for the pilots of AF1. They tried everything they could, snipped random wires under the control panel, shot through the cabin door, and got electrocuted after trying to disarm the biological lock on the ACAT system. May their souls rest in peace?

I saw it as the story of a brave male flight attendant forced to hide his heterosexuality in a biased industry.The rest of the film is simply a set-up to position that character to make a literal sacrifice equal to his metaphoric condition.Also little know fact; Air Force One looks exactly like the interior of a La Quinta Inn conference suite.Carry-on baggage has airtight properties.Unexploded ordinance remains intact on impact, and is also cool to the touch.Security lasers are not lethal to sympathetic characters.Air Force One has less crew than a JetBlue flight.Epilepsy is not a joke, it's a very dramatic beat!The Presidency of The United States is won by the 5th caller.That man really needs his newspaper.Make fun of Vegans, prepare to get burned about heart disease.Every 1st daughter; Amy Carter, Patty Davis, Chelsea Clinton, The Bush twins, Sasha and Malia Obama, every one of them is a top-tier trained 747 co-pilot.

I can only wish that I could have rated this film a -10. A total waste of time. A total disaster. I can not understand how this film ever passed the editing room. I did however sit and watch the entire movie because the story line was actually decent. This story line has the potential to be a good movie with a production company that can sink money into the project and hire decent actors. The video could've explained in more detail what caused the catastrophe to begin, why everything suddenly started dropping out of orbit, most often making direct contact with populated, yet indiscriminate targets. We can guess what was, and wasn't going to happen, when a commercial flight is headed directly for Air Force One. but you'll have to watch the video to know for sure. The question is, will the video hold your interest that long. I stuck it out, even though it was predictable, but many won't.
