amazing movie! BASED ON A TRUE STORY!!!!
Finally a legit movie.
first of all, from the plane to their seat belts to clothing... was great. what a great job playing the era as well as the make up etc... i hate it when one scene versus the next being totally different.
Yes, they made it a bit of a hero movie and of course it won't be 100% accurate; heck it's 1971.
My only piece with the movie is the unrealistic flying of a plane. They pulled a few stunts thinking they are flying a fighter pilot plane... It's a F27-100; even with only 44 passengers, not possible at all.
Great movie... i'm waiting for Andy Lau's version of plane hijack movie coming out.. let's see how it plays out.
