Air Force One

Don't rent it

Reviewer: Joe Casaletto

Disclaimer: Be warned that Harrison Ford is on the "Joe Casaletto's Most Hated Actors" list. To be on this list means I won't watch a movie if you are in it!
Harrison Ford. How the hell did he get famous? He has "Clint Eastwood Disease". The medical definition of that condition is, "You don't realize you are too old to kick anyone's ass in hand-to-hand combat OR be a sex object."
I didn't intend to watch this, but our next-door neighbor lent it to us. Air Force One went down exactly according to the old stale formula. I kept waiting for that moment from the preview where he goes, "I'm taking back my plane!!" but I couldn't last that long. If you rent it, maybe you can tell me how it ends.
Harrison Ford doesn't do sex scenes, thank God, but why oh why is he in an action movie? He's old .. he mumbles .. cannot change facial expression .. maybe he was portraying Al Gore??
My question is, how is it that with all those automatic weapons firing, not one bullet went through the plane? The Vice President in this movie is so dumb, she would make Dan Quayle look good. "I can't do anything! Let's count on Harrison Ford to save our asses!"
Also another dumbass moment was when someone interrupted Vice President Glenn Close and said, "You've got to see this." And then they showed the VERY BEGINNING of a CNN breaking news special event. What if it had been something like, "Breaking news -- Teletubby admits he is gay!"?? Actually that would've been the best moment in the movie.
