Con Air
When the government puts all its rotten criminal eggs in one airborne basket, it's asking for trouble. Before you can say, "Pass the barf bag," the crooks control the plane, led by creepy Cyrus "The Virus" Grissom (John Malkovich). Watching his every move is the just-released Nicolas Cage, who'd rather reunite with his family. The action climaxes with an incredible crash sequence in Las Vegas.

I found the music annoyingly like all the other films and the action slower than, well, slower than a comet hitchhiking its way to earth. And the long pauses for thespian-like moments ...
