Worse than Soul Plane. 0 stakes legal heist with a bunch of dumb bullshit.

"What about if we take the big thing and break it into smaller parts?" "Woooow! Good idea!" "Yay. We can heist!"

Less homophobia than Soul Plane so in that sense Tyler's growing. Still it manages to suck balls.

Almost all the aviation stuff was bullshit. I was going to put a list together of things that were wrong, but the list would be way too long. They had 10 tons of gold in a plane with 150 passengers? I think that's too much weight. They had panels "stuck" to their plane to make it stealthy? I think not. What did they use to attach them? What kind of material? One guy gets sucked out of the plane, with several others in the same compartment. They would be gone, too. And I don't think their airplane was real in any way. And, much, much, more. But the story was interesting and the acting was pretty good. I would have given it a thumbs down, but the good guys won, so I couldn't do that.
