Executive Decision
Released in DVD by Warner Studios (04 February, 2003)
Starring: Kurt Russell and Halle Berry
Steven Seagal gets killed during the first 20 minutes of this enjoyable thriller, so the movie scores points for ingenuity because it immediately improves when you realize that Seagal's role is just a heroic cameo. That leaves Kurt Russell to star as an American intelligence expert who (due to Seagal's untimely demise) finds himself leading a strike force against Islamic terrorists who have seized in-flight control of a 747 jetliner with 400 passengers. It's not all that different from Air Force One, but the formula story perks right along with considerable suspense as Russell's cohorts (Oliver Platt, Joe Morton) try to defuse a chemical bomb that could wipe out (you guessed it) the entire Eastern seaboard. John Leguizamo plays one of the U.S. commandos attempting to stop the violent hijackers, and Halle Berry costars as a flight attendant who risks her life to assist Russell's rescue team. As action movies go, Executive Decision marked an impressive directorial debut for veteran film editor Stuart Baird. --Jeff Shannon

Thrilling Battle against Satanic Palestinian terrorist Nazis
probably one of the best action movies everthis movie keeps you on your toes the entire time and its so cool to watch it unfold. It is kind of reminisent of 9/11 so if that bothers you maybe you should skip it but this is a great movie
Great thriller/action movieThis is a great movie. It kinda reminds u of air force one another great movie. Kurt Russell is a great actor and shows it in this movie. A great storyline and i would recomend this movie to anyone. The R rating is unnecessary though and i think that any person at least 9 and older could watch it. It is only R really because of the one scene w/the suicide bomber and then a few swears here and there. And is somewhat violent but no worse than say The Fast and the Furious, which is another great movie. And theres not really alot of f-bombs-1 or 2. This is once again a great plane movie. Everyone should see this movie.
Palestinian terrorists hijack a Flight 747 en route from Athens and Washington D.C, and it is discovered that they are carrying on the plane, a deadly nerve toxin, in quantities that can destroy half of the USA.
Kurt Russell plays a US Intelligence whiz kid who discovers the whole evil plot, and Steven Seagal, the air force colonel, in charge of the operation.
David Suchet plays the terrorist killer, who leads the band of vicious skyjackers.
And the gorgeous Halle Berry plays the heroic airhostess, who helps to foil the plan by the terrorists.
The sexy Marla Maples Trump plays a cameo role as another airhostess.
The tension and fear is palpable, and the difficulty, which the anti-terror team pulls off the operation against the terrorists, is shown in its full realism and difficulty, in contrast to the surrealistic ease of a 007.
It is always good to steal ourselves for the titanic fight ahead of us between the free world and the Satanic Islamic/Palestinian terror network.
