rk34 Hey, of course it's the same movie as Executive Decision. Michael did it first and Hollywood thought it was such a good movie, they packed it with so called top stars and remade it with bigger special effects. Fantastic movie, great scenes even if some of them were re-used in other movies, but what do you expect from a lower budget film. Not only does Michael put in a solid and believable performance, but all the cast come together well to make this a great action/suspense movie not to be missed. Whether you are a die hard Dudikoff fan or a newbie to his movies, this one is yet another great offering from Dudikoff. Check it out and you won't be disappointed.

antti-20 of all hijack movies this is the best of the worst! only decent thing was SR-71! that is always a cool thing. except the hooking under a jumbojet... and a FBI agent can do anything, f.e. land a jumbo without a door. yeah.i could write all the funny mistakes down, but it would take all the fun away from watchers. anyway, remember to concentrate on f-16s radars. and also i found funny that same poor pilot was sent for same mission two times. not a good day for him.good thing with these bad movies is that if you're hit with bullet, you don't actually get hurt that much. but that is just movies, isn't it. good thing was that the world (america) was saved once again. and an aircraft.

arcane1 ~contains spoilersWhatever the director was trying to achieve with this film, I do not know. In my opinion, all he delivered was a messed up plot that barely rivals that of Executive Decision, a film whose story it was painfully obvious that he wanted to recreate. Come on. A vice president traveling in a standard 747 passenger plane? That would never happen, especially in 1997, when this movie was made. The VP always travels in a US government plane, Air Force 2. This is clearly a low-budget, poorly-made film that the makers of Executive Decision didn't want to sue since the makers of Executive Command wouldn't have to money to pay them anyway.

dex-12 Granted, this movie isn't a cinematic masterpiece (then again, what movie since "Raiders of the Lost Ark" or "The Postman" is?), but it's still a rollicking good time. I've been waiting to see this movie since it was made back in 1997, and I just recently did. I've been a fan of Michael Dudikoff for many years now, and this is my favorite film starring him. Who cares if it borrows from "Die Hard," "The Rock," "Air Force One" and "Executive Decision?" This movie rocks!! If you watch this movie knowing it's low-budget and expecting low-budget elements, you'll enjoy it. I know I did. My whole family did. In fact, I just spent $80 to buy an actual copy of it. I loved it that much. I watched in five times in five days. Though it doesn't rank in my Top Five favorite films of all time, it's certainly more enjoyable than most of the Hollywood films I've seen in the last two years. So sit down with a big bowl of popcorn, a big screen TV with a good stereo surround sound system (much like I did), and enjoy. You're in for a ride that won't quit!!
