Yes, finding the Blu-Ray disc in a KMart bin marked $3.99 was a pretty clear indication. But then I found I paid $2 more than prices on eBay! Ultimately, I'd say I paid $2.99 more than I later wished.Along the way of this script, which like many politicians, was Fact-Free, I kept wondering if the director and cast actually meant to produce such a discordant mess. The story actually bears telling - after it's re-written to be more credible. But turn after turn, the film snatches defeat from the jaws of victory.One example, the fed in charge is a cross-eyed FBI guy whose impossible to take seriously. And speaking of FBI, how in the world did a nearly-hijacked plane come to the President's attention so quickly? Oh, oh - yeah, right - her brother was flying the plane.And name one model of commercial jet aircraft that requires two pilots to managed the control yokes which magically respond independently and quite differently? Ah, but the flight crew did display uniform looks that alternated between, "Duh" and terror - with or without reason.Oh, this film was a romp...and for $0.99, I might even agree it was worth the price of admission.
... View MoreToo bad... Nothing in the movie seems real. The special effects are perhaps made up on an old home computer :) I cannot imagine how people invest money on such a crap... A total waste of time to watch it ( I even couldn't resist to push my FF button on many scenes ). Actors of the movie tried their best I presume. But without a proper story, what can be done ? I've watched many low budget films in my life, and according to my experience, an action movie without proper sources never makes it. But for all movie enthusiasts, especially for all special effect fans, I advise to watch it carefully. "This is how special effects must not be." and that's a lesson.
... View MoreWell what could you expect of a movie that has a title like that? Exactly. So if you are going in with hopes to watch another Armageddon or even Passenger 57 (a rather good movie, especially compared to this one), than don't even rent/watch it. You will be thoroughly disappointed. But if you watch this with some friends, you might find yourself having fun at how ridiculous the movie is.I don't wanna judge the actors or anyone else involved in the movie. Getting a movie made at all is hard task. Though some would argue it's easier to do nowadays (in the 21st century) than it was a while ago. Still I cannot recommend this, unless you really prepare for it ... (and even then ...)
... View MoreThe poor plot, acting and everything else have already been touched on, but I was very amused at the Secret Service woman who just sat by and let people get shot and a hand cut off when shes sat there holding a gun and apparently the bad guys will always freeze when she aims at them.. I have to say though, my favourite line was " Madam President, the Secret Service informed me that the First Lady and your children are in the bunker". Either that went completely unnoticed by the film makers and the 'actress' who said it, or they are quietly trying to imply that the female President is gay. Can't say I've ever seen a film before where they've suggested that, so I like it just for having some balls!
