Wolfgang Petersen’s AIR FORCE ONE
(R, 1997, 124 min)
“Get off my plane!” When terrorists seize Air Force One, the President of the United States (Harrison Ford) refuses to abandon his family — or his country. What begins as a hostage crisis at 30,000 feet becomes a gripping battle of wits, courage, and survival. With the fate of the nation in his hands, the Commander-in-Chief proves that leadership means sacrifice, honor, and unshakable resolve. Backed by powerhouse performances from Gary Oldman and Glenn Close, Air Force One wasn’t just a movie — it was one of the biggest box office hits of the 1990s. Today it soars again, a salute to American strength, patriotism, and the fight to protect freedom at all costs.

Andrew Davis’ UNDER SEIGE
(R, 1992, 103 min)
“It’s not a job… it’s an adventure.” Terrorists hijack the U.S. battleship Missouri with enough firepower to start World War III. What they didn’t count on was Casey Ryback (Steven Seagal) — the ship’s cook and a former Navy SEAL — who unleashes every ounce of his training to take back the vessel, one brutal fight at a time. With Tommy Lee Jones as a deranged mercenary and Gary Busey at his wildest, Under Siege delivers relentless hand-to-hand combat, explosive firepower, and white-knuckle suspense from bow to stern. From Andrew Davis, the director of The Fugitive, it’s pure ’90s action glory — a high-seas battle where only one man stands between chaos and freedom.
