Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
It's Die Hard on a plane in this action thriller, starring Wesley Snipes as an antiterrorist specialist whose early retirement is interrupted when his flight is overtaken by a bloodthirsty villain (Bruce Payne). Watching this at home is pretty much an excuse to order pizza and kick back, as the familiar rhythms of maverick-cop-versus-international-criminal take over and nothing new or fresh in the formula emerges. The supporting cast includes Elizabeth Hurley (Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery) as a gun-wielding, junior terrorist, which is fun simply for being unexpected. The release includes optional full-screen and widescreen presentations, Dolby sound, production notes, and optional English, French, and Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh

Schnooks on a Plane.......2007-01-21
Wesley Snipes does DIE HARD (or LETHAL WEAPON sans a partner) in this entertaining but absolutely formulaic action-adventure outing. Another in the genre of the "Lunchpail Superman" movies that have proven so popular, Snipes plays a recently-retired (of course) covert government anti-terrorist agent (of course) who finds his dream vacation of a lifetime (of course) interrupted by A Few Bad Men (of course) who want to take a commercial jetliner bye-bye for foggy reasons of their own (of course). If you've seen the above-referenced films you will recognize PASSENGER 57, which samples the action in them quite freely and unashamedly. That's okay, because the film works well within its own limited expectations.
The surprises in this film are few, but memorable. The yummy Elizabeth Hurley plays one of the terrorists. The action takes place at an airport in rural Louisiana, and, thank the Script Gods, actually portrays the local Sheriff as a racist jerk good ol' boy, not as a redeemed cracker choirboy. He actually calls Snipes "Boy" a few times. That's a lot of "boys" in one sentence, but whoo boy, it's sooooo un-PC that it only makes Snipes' eventual assumption of command over local law enforcement that much better. So, sit back, grab a slice, and pop open a cold one. This is THAT kind of picture.
Depends on how you look at it.......2006-11-21
First there was ``Die Hard,'' a thriller about a gritty cop trapped in a skyscraper with a bunch of terrorists, then there was ``Die Hard II,'' which took place at an airport, then there was ``Under Siege,'' which was like Die Hard on a ship, now there's ``Passenger 57'' which is essentially Die Hard on a jet airliner. Hollywood loves to wear a formula to death.
Wesley Snipes (White Men Can't Jump, New Jack City) stars as a top security consultant for airlines who gets mixed up in an airplane hijacking with the most dangerous terrorist in the world.
The terrorist, Charles Rane, well-played by Bruce Payne is very nasty and clever. Snipes is the typical indestructible adversary (he can jump out of a speeding plane without being hurt).
Director Kevin Hooks keeps the energy level high. Writers David Loughery and Dan Gordon keep things interesting, with a lot of action on the ground as well as in the air. All of the minor characters are interesting too. Mark Irwin's photography is very good and the stunts and special effects are excellent.
The film is probably too violent for children, hence the ``R'' rating, but is O.K. for adults who just want some light entertainment. Just don't take it seriously.
when wesley was a black bruce willi.......2006-05-18
this is one of my favorite air plane movies of the 90s and i am a big airplane fan i love flying on an airplane looking at the window watching the clouds go by flying in the airplane looking at the window up so very high wesley was one of the top leading action men of the 90s this is almost like a die hard film in the sky the movie goes all over the place the ground, sky, and carnival area this is not ur typical airplane movie folks passenger 57 also has the man who co star on saving private ryan he is not a bad actor it was this pretty airplane lady who wesley fell in love with she reminded him of his wife who passed on this movie was not only action pack but deliever a couple of laughs and cries moments also well wesley snips imo was one of the coolest actors because all the ladies use to like him he even went out with the most beautiful actess at the time and still one of the beautiful actresses of our time halle berry so check this movie out it may help u to enjoy flying on an airplane more jb
Dumb fun.......2006-04-12
Passenger 57 dates back to the days when Tom Sizemore still had hair, a chin and a career outside homemade porn and when all you needed to get an action movie made was to bill it as Die Hard on a plane/train/bus/ice rink/ostrich farm. Wesley Snipes is the ex-cop on the wrong plane at the wrong time and you'll have no trouble spotting the baddies because, as with all 90s films, they're Brits (in this case Julian Sands wannabe Bruce Payne and Elizabeth Hurley). At a lean 83 minutes it doesn't outstay its welcome and while no classic, as dumb fun action movies go, it's pretty dumb good.
Can you fix me that coffee of yours?.......2006-02-21
This is definitely the worst movie I have ever seen. The acting by everyone in this movie sucks, and they all looked pathetic! The aircraft is hijacked and landed into the small town's non-commercial airport, the hijackers have just dropped dead bodies from the plane and asking for fuel or else they will kill more people, and the chief officer of sheriff dept. reacts by asking the old lady at the ATC tower "Can you fix me that coffee of yours?" ?? I mean the direction in this movie is best example of how bad a direction can be. As rightly pointed by one of the reviewers (P. Sullivan) here, another stupid example is that old lady passenger doing woo-hoo after the plane was landed with dead people everywhere. Again, don't expect anything on any front of direction, acting, scripts, storyline, and dialogues.
If you like movies based on aircrafts/actions, then watch Executive Decision, a lot better than this. I bought this DVD when it was available for $14.99, and I always felt that I wasted those few bucks. A waste of time and money!

Description
Buckle up and make sure all seatbacks are in an upright position for the airborne action of Passenger 57. It's a rumble in the jumbo when Wesley Snipes plays an airline security agent aboard a jumbo jet commandeered by hijackers. Snipes turns up the heat again in the stylish, modern film noir Boiling Point. He portrays U.S. Treasury Agent Jimmy Mercer, who's not above stretching the law to smoke out his partner's killers. The top-notch cast of this edgy thriller includes Dennis Hopper and Lolita Davidovich.
Customer Reviews:
Always bet on Snipes.......2006-05-27
Wesley Snipes is an underrated actor, simply put. Want proof? Just watch these two movies. Snipes pretty much carries both movies and makes them what they are - which are classic Snipes action movies. With such classic lines as "Always bet on Black," roundhouse kicks, and overall badassness, Snipes shows why he is the black Chuck Norris.
You can but other movie combos of Snipes movies, but these are two of this best and some of my favorites. The only thing that prevented me from giving this 5 stars are the other actors. If you're looking for great action movies, classic 90s movies, or something along the lines of "Die Hard," "Lethal Weapon," or possibly "48 Hours" then you need to get his DVD now.
