Charles Rane is also know as “The Rane of Terror!!” He has masterminded four terrorist attacks. Authorities have him handcuffed and he is onboard Flight 163. Officials don’t know that he plans an attack on this plane to free himself. Unknown to Rane, John Cutter, an undercover security operative is also on board the plane. When Cutter sees that Rane has taken over the plane, there is only one thought in his mind. Do or be done to!!
It’s easy to see that this film is dated but it’s packed with a LOT of action!! Snipes changed his career from a drama/comedy actor into an action hero after this film was released. He grew up on the streets of the South Bronx in New York City. Very early he decided that dance and theater were to be his career.
