Two great films on tonight...

shucks [Edit] [Delete] 21:58, 9 August '09

Channel 5 (like, in a mo)

FLIGHT OF FURY

Air Force pilot John Sands (Steven Seagal) has been wrongfully imprisoned in a military detention center where his memory is to be chemically wiped because some of his superiors feel threatened by the knowledge that he gained from his assignments to operations that were deemed too sensitive for the regular intelligence services.

Later, a top secret Air Force Stealth Bomber known as the X-77, which uses the latest in stealth cloaking technology, making it capable of going anywhere undetected, is stolen by corrupt Air Force pilot Ratcher (Steve Toussaint).

General Tom Barnes (Angus MacInnes), John's former commander, hears that John has been arrested after taking down a group of men who were robbing a rest stop.

Knowing that John was Ratcher's trainer, Barnes sends John to northern Afghanistan with fellow pilot Rick Jannick (Mark Bazeley) to recover the X-77, promising John that he will be a free man if he succeeds.

Critical Reception:

“Overall critical reaction was negative. The film was praised, due to Seagal's loss of weight, but was still highly criticised because of the use of stock footage.”

Also, at 10.50 on Channel 4.

BRING IT ON

GO TOROS, YEAH? YEAH!
