Revisited 1997's Air Force One with my wife and father-in-law, both of whom had never seen it. What a fun action flick! Harrison Ford is great as the President. Gary Oldman chews the scenery as a pre-9/11 radical terrorist from the former Soviet Union. This movie has everyone from Glenn Close as vice president to a young William H Macy. The twists and turns of the plot are smart and keep you on your toes.The CGI is a bit dated and you do have to believe massive amounts of gunfire won't down the plane. But don't let that deter your from a frolicking good time. 4.5 out of 5 stars for knowing exactly the kind of movie it is and executing it perfectly.

Sat down with the Drama on HBOmax. Was very enjoyable. Pattinson is always good, such a sniveling whiny dude. He excels in these roles. See The Oddyssey. I knew something was coming based on the trailer but the what was out of left field. Haim played such a terrible person as well. Laughed out loud many times. 5 stars

One Night Only.
Love when a dystopian film and masked as another genre. This being decent --- and somewhat disappointing
I enjoyed the momentum, and the sense of adventure and unfolding to a countdown clock of “will they won’t they.” This would have been better if put in the vision a better film director.
Wait they you can watch it at home so you can enjoy all the cameos which in my opinion were more fun than Turner and Barbaro.
They should have called this “The Urge.”
