A smart, adult thriller...
October 08, 2005
A nerve-racking thriller that's more topical today than it was in 1996.

A movie for people who are sophisticated enough to know how shameless the film is, but fun-loving enough to enjoy its excesses and manic zeal.

Laughably, inexcusably, abjectly awful. How can I even count the ways?

There's nothing like a protracted action drama in which anti-terrorist commandos slink around the bowels of an airborne 747 and talk about what they hope to accomplish upstairs in the final shootout.

Stuart Baird's direction is so sluggish and Jim and John Thomas' script so padded that Executive Decision has no build.

Take a late-blooming action star and an action hero whose career is in a downslide, and you get an action film seriously lacking in... action.
