Con Air

“They were deadly on the ground. Now they have wings.”

Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage), a former Army Ranger, boards a transport plane to go home to his wife after eight years in prison. The flight carries dozens of the country's most dangerous convicts, and Cyrus Grissom (John Malkovich), a brilliant psychopath, orchestrates a takeover mid-air. Simon West shoots the chaos with propulsive momentum, turning the fuselage into a locked box where every choice spirals toward the next collision.
