It felt like a cool premise (airport staff blackmailed to let bomb on plane) but it was stretched out to 2 hours. I thought the scene when the cop let the plane take off was dumb. The cop wouldn't have authorisation. The decision would be with LAWA (Los Angeles World Airports - a department of the city of Los Angeles) and Homeland Security.

And yeah, the sniper stuff was dumb. There is no way a sniper in a truck parked outside the airport could track the girlfriend all or most of the time. Impossible. The sniper had very limited range. She had to be in direct line with the truck for him to have a direct shot! Unless she was standing in the lobby for most of the film lol....he had no shot on.

If you want to see a better 'terrorists at airport' film... check out Die Hard 2.

I mean I suppose you know what you're in for with these Netflix movies that seem to complete garbage time after time. A plot completely devoid of any logic and it seems like the movie was written by a group of toddlers. It was utter trash pretty much from the start, but that scene where his girlfriend is standing in the middle of an airport lobby with a blaring red spot from the evil henchman's scope on her forehead was just too much even for me. Too much! And why the heck does this movie last two hours? There is barely any material for the first hour.

Jason Bateman made the film shorter he was good. Did feel Taron was a little old to be playing a young naive new baby on the job yes he's in his thirties but still. Taron is unfortunately too mature looking for his age.

The movie was so dumb I quit watching at the middle. Seriously, why would you put in your ear a random earpod that you've found. Why would you stay on the line talking to some strange person. Then a security guard dies in the middle of a busy airport and everyone just shrug their shoulders. The entire concept is super dumb, and then the dumb things just keep piling up. Everything in this movie was super annoying and stupid.

That strange person was threatening to kill the relatives of his airport colleagues knowing where they live or work did you watch the movie?
