There are so many terrible scenes in this movie it's like it is intentional. One bad scene after another. For example having 2 F - 35 Jets going slow enough to escort a Cessna plane. WHAT?
If you replaced Katherine McNamara (Love her, great actress) with Gina Carano the action scenes might make sense. But instead they have a 5 foot 50 pound woman throwing 200 pound military trained soldiers repeatedly for 5 minutes. WTF.
The action is great.... but the bad guys are on a conveyor belt one at a time & waiting there turn.
But the worst thing in this movie is the music score.
Very bad movie,.
Can't blame the actors, stuntmen or cameraman for this abomination. That is why it's a 3.
It's so bad but so many good actors!

The premis is not new, the actors are not either,but they may as well be if they decided this film was a good career move. I must admit i knew none of the actors, but then i do not watch channels like Hallmark as its content does not appeal, but what i have seen of the Hallmark channel is enough to think that this film had to scrape bottom of barrel and borrow a producer from them to make this drivel as no one else wanted to. If bored and want to watch a rehash of a potential good ripoff of a film done better elsewhere then tbh it is not That bad (hence slightly above 5 stars given), but it is bad all the same. Dialogue is corny, premis has potential but script is boring, and the little or unknown to me actors altho do an ok job considering what they have to work with overall are not A list,and in some cases not even D listers,and their acting innability keeps shining thru more often than i would like-watch if very bored, but do not expecxt much and you will not be too dissapointed.
I took the risk on the low score, and I've lost. When I clicked on director name, I saw some references to movies I enjoyed but actually I was ignorant. The references were for stunts, not directing.
This is not an enjoyable movie at all. I find it really insulting my tastes. I will not give names but even B movies are better than this one.
If you think you enjoy a beautiful blond woman kicking ass and killing a lot of military men, go for it. But be aware that the movie script has a lot of exaggerations, mistakes, and wrong ideas. If I take a small vacation, I can write a better script.
You should find something else to do with your time.

Gotta give credit to the kids who made this film with the budget they had, which was probably equivalent to a summer long work of mowing lawns. I mean with just an iPhone they were able to make a quite a convincing film.
If they had a bit more budget, this might've made the blockbusters. But with what they had, it is quite a decent job. A few pointers for improvement:
Anyways, good job. You did the best with what you've got.
4/10.
If they had a bit more budget, this might've made the blockbusters. But with what they had, it is quite a decent job. A few pointers for improvement:
- fight scenes are well choreographed but way too slow. It looks like they were playing patty cake.
- might want to add airplane sounds when you are on Airforce One, else it just looks like it is filmed in a building.
- Best actor is definitely the general, give him a bonus.
- Plot needs work. Why did the bad guys kill all the secret service on sight except for those which fit the plot? Why did they keep the main character alive all this time for?
Anyways, good job. You did the best with what you've got.
4/10.
Alison Miles (Katherine McNamara) is young and untested Secret Service agent serving under her uncle and mentor Agent Sam "Uncle Sam" Waitman (Anthony Michael Hall). As President Dallas Edwards (Ian Bohen) prepares to depart for the Eastern European nation of Astovia broker an oil deal with the nation's President, disgraced Astovian General and former leader of Astovia Azem Rodninov (Rade Serbedzija) initiates a plan to seize control of Air Force One and kidnap President Edwards with Agent Miles now the only one who can save him.
Yet another film from producer Steven Paul and Paramount's revived Republic Pictures label, Air Force One Down sees Paul diving into the direct-to-video action well once again after gracing audiences with The Painter earlier this year. Air Force One Down is more enjoyable than the Painter thanks largely to being shorter and less plodding, but it's also a not all that competent retreat on action formula that despite Paul's promise of delivering a "new twist" is more or less of the standard you see in direct-to-video trash lining the bottom shelf of Blockbuster during the 90s and 2000s.
Watching Air Force One Down it's pretty clear from the opening that starts with Allison partaking in sparring matches to establishing shots of DC and text identifying names and positions of characters that Air Force One Down owes a massive debt to Millennium Media's Fallen series of films that star Gerard Butler. While I'll admit I enjoy the occasional Millennium film, even the most ardent defenders can't deny films like The Expendables or Olympus Has Fallen are basically supped up versions of direct-to-video action templates from the company's early days that are redressed with bigger star names and a slightly larger scale. While Steven Paul is clearly trying to capture that same aesthetic Millennium films have, he clearly doesn't have the means or resources to do so.
The feature directorial debut of veteran stunt coordinator James Bamford I'll say that at least Bamford knows how to keep things moving with a brisk pace, but the action is also quite clumsily staged at points and can veer into unintended humor such as how henchmen during gunfights seem to forget how their guns are supposed to work and instead rush Agent Miles while carrying their AK-47s rather than actually shooting them. Katherine McNamara lacks the hardened edge you'd expect of a character in this role (but she's agile and at least can move during the very silly action sequences) and her exchanges with Anthony Michael Hall's "Uncle Sam" did amuse me with how much they failed to be endearing, especially with how producer Steven Paul who serves as the writer must've felt so proud of that "Uncle Sam" play on words given that it's revisited more than once until Anthony Michael Hall exits the movie unceremoniously at the half-way point.
Going into a movie like this, you pretty much know it's going to be bad given all the warning signs involved, but at least unlike The Painter from earlier this year it moves quickly enough that you can have a cheap laugh at its expense if you're so inclined. Otherwise: Just stick with Air Force One, Olympus Has Fallen, or White House Down for your "save the President" fix.
