John Cutter is a security expert, who is presently still mourning the death of his wife. His friend, who works for an airline, offers him the job of chief of security, which he accepts. He is then being flown to L.A. for the company&#39;s annual meeting, where he will be introduced as the new Chief of Security. But unfortunately for him, Charles Rane, a stoic and deranged terrorist, who was caught by the FBI and is also being flown to L.A. is on the plane. And Rane&#39;s people are on board, who then take over the plane but Cutter throws a monkey wrench into his plans.
An airline security expert must take action when he finds himself trapped on a passenger jet when terrorists seize control of it.
Individually, there&#39;s not much to like about Passenger 57. Not a single aspect of the film or its plot is original, its ending is predictable, and the characters would have had more depth as 39-cent keychain action figures. Despite this, or maybe because of it, the film works. You won&#39;t be distracted trying to follow this film, nor will your dog, cat, parrot, or just about any living creature with more than three brain cells. That you may have seen this film 23 times on cable in the middle night won&#39;t do much to stop the 24th, either.<br/><br/>If there were an Oscar for typecasting, this film would have won easily: Wesley Snipes is John Cutter, the special-ops trained, African American ex-supercop who oozes competence, honesty, ethics, and just about every other characteristic that certain members of the white audience think are exclusive to their race. Facilitating the anti-KKK crusade is sheriff Biggs (Ernie Lively), a Dr. McCoy clone in looks and demeanor who is slightly distrusting of the black Cutter, enough to hint at racism, but not so much that Biggs couldn&#39;t redeem himself by reminding his two hick deputies to shoot him if they have to, but only &quot;in the leg&quot; because &quot;he might be telling the truth.&quot; That Cutter could call Sly Delvecchio (Tom Sizemore in his less controversial days) from the plane, but Biggs couldn&#39;t call him from the airport, drives home once again the message Snipes has been exploiting since White Men Can&#39;t Jump. The terrorists who seize the plane appear to have been transported from Die Hard, down to Eurotrash psychopath Charles Rane (Bruce Payne), played in stereotypical fashion by the actor.<br/><br/>We get the normal blend of suspense, thrills, action, and just enough pauses for witty dialogue between hero and villain. We get Robert Hooks as yet another child of affirmative action, the black FBI agent, playing more or less the same character he&#39;s played in dozens of films. Elizabeth Hurley as the female terrorist seems a bit out of place, but her main function was as eye candy, so she has a neutral impact. Rounting out the stereotypes are Alex Datcher as the sexy, independent black flight attendant Marti, and love interest for Snipes, as well as reminder of his late wife, and the late Duchess Tomasello as the painfully stereotypical Mrs. Edwards, an elderly, good-hearted, clueless lady who hints at early stage Alzheimer&#39;s.<br/><br/>The plot? A plane gets hijacked, with Snipes, the airline&#39;s new head of security, on board. He dodges the initial hijacking, and spends the rest of the film taking on the bad guys. This is Die Hard in the air, and it&#39;s just about every action and airline film ever made. It&#39;s almost a Blackspoitation flick, even though the role of cutter was originally offered to Stallone (the second time he was replaced by an African-American; the first was Beverly Hills Cop). The ending? You&#39;ll have to guess.<br/><br/>This is not really that good of a film, but it&#39;s a lot easier to watch than it should be. I still watch it from time to time, though usually only in parts.
If the only thing you&#39;re interested in when you watch an action movie is guns blazing and fight scenes, then this will satisfy. There&#39;s a lot of gunfighting in this one, and Wesley Snipes definitely proves that he knows something about the martial arts. His fight scenes are well done for the most part. In general, though, the movie repeatedly insists on descending into silliness, with a story that makes very little sense, even as actions movies go.<br/><br/>Snipes plays John Cutter, a security expert who&#39;s just been hired to be chief of security for Atlantic International Airlines. He boards a flight for Los Angeles not knowing that the FBI is transporting a vicious terrorist on the same flight. The opening scenes involving terrorist Charles Rane (Bruce Payne) and his attempt to escape the FBI by fleeing a plastic surgeon&#39;s office, where he was apparently going to have his appearance changed, was pretty dramatic and established the nature of that character reasonably well. Unfortunately, the extended opening development of Cutter seemed unnecessary and overlong. The real problem here though (and where the movie lost all credibility with me), has to do with Rane&#39;s plan for hijacking the flight. Sly Delvecchio (Tom Sizemore) - who&#39;s one of the bigwigs with the airline - keeps complaining that the FBI didn&#39;t tell the airline that they&#39;d use that flight to transport a dangerous criminal. But that makes sense to me. Why tip anybody off? So even the airline doesn&#39;t know that he&#39;s going to be on the plane. How, then, did Rane manage to get not just one but two of his people on board the plane - not as passengers but as crew? Either he got them hired by the airline specifically for this operation or he recruited two employees. Either way, they&#39;d have to have known in advance that he was going to be on this particular flight and arranged to work this particular flight by bidding on it in advance, because these things are arranged by seniority. Sure, there could have been an FBI mole who tipped him off, but I doubt this decision was made weeks in advance in order to facilitate all these arrangements, and there&#39;s still the problem of getting the flight attendant and baggage handler scheduled to work this flight. A rather silly and overly convenient plot device, if you ask me.<br/><br/>Once this is over, there&#39;s very little of note and nothing much you remember about it. It&#39;s an action flick among action flicks - but even sillier than most, and adding nothing original to the genre. However, I did enjoy Cutter&#39;s comment to Rane - &quot;always bet on black!&quot; 2/10
