This is another action packed film starring Harrison Ford as the President of the United States (Jim Marshall). He is travelling home with his wife, daughter and a planeload of top government officials on Air Force One - one of the most guarded planes.

A few minutes into the journey the plane gets hi-jacked by terrorists led by Korshunov (Gary Oldman). Thinking the President has escaped, he then threatens to start killing passengers every half hour unless his country's imprisoned dictator is freed. Marshall then realises it is his responsibility to protect his family and the other passengers.

The Vice President (Glenn Close) does her best to negotiate with the terrorists but they keep their word and stert killing passengers.
The President then comes up with a plan to get the passengers of the plane by getting them to parachute out the escape hatch while the terrorists are waiting on confirmation that their dictator has been released. Unfortunately the First Lady, the daughter and a couple of other hostages are still stuck on the plane.
I won't give away the ending in case you haven't seen it.

Harrison Ford makes is a good at his role as the President which I think this is the best he has ever acted. Gary Oldman is one of the best and Glenn Close is very convincing in her role as Vice President.
The film is rated 15 because there is quite a lot of violence but I think it was well written and is one of my all time favourites.
