“Well, let me give you a word of advice. Always bet on black!”
“Now I’m sick of your shit!”
What is more bad ass than a self-defense instructor for airline stewardesses? NOTHING, that’s what! John Cutter (Snipes) is a retired police detective who has since taken to teaching defense tactics in the wake of his Wife’s brutal murder while at a convenience store. Not so convenient. Just finishing up one of his bad-ass lessons, Cutter is tapped by an old friend, Sly Delvecchio (Tom Sizemore), who offers Cutter a gig as vice-president of a new anti-terrorism unit for his company, Atlantic International Airlines. Although Cutter is initially reluctant, Delvecchio and the company’s president Stuart Ramsey (Bruce Greenwood) ultimately convince him to accept the offer. Little does kick-ass Cutter know he is about to be folded into a “Rane of Terror” when recently caught convict, Charles Rane, hijacks the plane with fiendish intent.
