Air Force One
Whether he's Indiana Jones or Han Solo, you've probably heard of the famous Harrison Ford. One of his major 90's role was in the film Air Force One. In this movie, he plays the president of the United States. The film starts out on the presidents personal plane, also known as 'Air Force One'. Throughout the movie terrorists take over the plane and try to force the president to release a Russian radical general who no one is a fan of. If you're familiar with Harrison Ford films, you probably know that he always wins. This can be considered a modern action-adventure film at least comparing it to the 1960's version of 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea, and the book Treasure Island which is so much of a classic, it was published in another century. Many scenes jump around mostly between the plane, and on land, with the whole White House and Presidential Cabinet trying their hardest to make sure their president isn't killed. This film is definitely a classic and one of Ford's best. I've attached the link to the trailer if any of you are interested. I highly recommend watching this film.
