It's Die Hard on a plane in this action thriller, starring Wesley Snipes as an antiterrorist specialist whose early retirement is interrupted when his flight is overtaken by a bloodthirsty villain (Bruce Payne). Watching this at home is pretty much an excuse to order pizza and kick back, as the familiar rhythms of maverick-cop-versus-international-criminal take over and nothing new or fresh in the formula emerges. The supporting cast includes Elizabeth Hurley (Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery) as a gun-wielding, junior terrorist, which is fun simply for being unexpected. --Tom Keogh

"Passenger 57" has to be my very favorite Wesley Snipes movie and one of my very favorite action movies ever! I have been a huge fan of this movie ever since I first saw the trailer for it when I went to see Under Siege (another awesome movie.) At the height of this movie's popularity producers capitalized on Wesley's image as a strong leading man with the catchphrase: always bet on black. And that totally describes his role and this movie.
Wesley plays John Cutter, a security ... Read More
Rating:  - Terrorists on a plane....
1992's "Passenger 57" stars a young Wesley Snipes in an early leading role as an air marshal on a plane hijacked by a deadly terrorist and his gang. The plot, the characters, and the action sequences are adequate if formulaic. This is decent no-brainer entertainment.
Snipes plays John Cutter, an experienced security officer, who is the extra passenger on an airliner hijacked by master terrorist Charles Rane (played with suitable snarl and menace by Bruce Payne). Cutter happens to be in the ... Read More
Rating: - Schnooks on a Plane
Wesley Snipes does DIE HARD (or LETHAL WEAPON sans a partner) in this entertaining but absolutely formulaic action-adventure outing. Another in the genre of the "Lunchpail Superman" movies that have proven so popular, Snipes plays a recently-retired (of course) covert government anti-terrorist agent (of course) who finds his dream vacation of a lifetime (of course) interrupted by A Few Bad Men (of course) who want to take a commercial jetliner bye-bye for foggy reasons of their own (of course). If you've seen ... Read More
